Watch 5 40mm & watch 5 pro overheating on LTE phone calls

[thoughts]

I have both a watch 5 40mm lte & 5 pro LTE on T-mobile's data with Paired Digits cellular plan. If I leave my phone at home & make/take a phone call on LTE I'll get a warning the watch is too hot. It ends my call, ends my workout & puts the watch on airplane mode plus makes the watch very unresponsive to touch. 

Advertising X battery life and getting less is one thing... But completely not functioning is unacceptable.  do I have to do to use my watch for it's normal function? Cellular service on this watch is completely useless. 2 minutes into every phone call the watch has a stroke. 

It's only 25C outside. What will the watch do when it's 40C?

Chat support says just factory reset it.

What's the 'contact Samsung members' way?
