I just bought an S23 Ultra 512gb/12gb ever since i bought the phone it seems to get hot all the time. I just hold it in my hand and after 2 minutes of instagram, facebook or tiktok or netflix it warms up. What should I do in your opinion? Have it replaced or is this normal?
Hello SerDavix, Welcome to the Community. We understand how frustrating it is when the phone is overheating.
Whether you're using a phone, tablet, smartwatch, or earbuds, all Galaxy devices have a set temperature range, where they operate at their best. While they may feel warm under certain conditions, like charging, this does not affect the device's lifespan or performance. However, if your devices get too warm, it could cause some issues.

Turn off the device.
Press and hold the Volume Up key, then press and hold the Side key.
When the green Android logo displays, release all keys ('Installing system update' will show for about 30 - 60 seconds before showing the Android system recovery menu options).
Press the Volume down key several times to highlight wipe cache partition.
Press Side key to select.
Press the Volume down key to highlight yes, them and press the Side key to select.
