sorted byWithout buying a specific gaming phone that has cooling fans built in, which will go WAY over your budget, or getting a case that has special cooling features (Razer make gaming cases with thermal pads in them for example) then getting another phone isn’t going to change the fact that the phone gets hot.
Can you clarify what you’re hoping to achieve? Do you just generally want to get him a smartphone to stop him using yours? Or are you only looking because you’re concerned about the phone getting hot? Because if it’s the latter it’s perfectly normal and a new phone won’t change that.
I mainly want to get him a smartphone, so yes he can stop using mine
Phones get hot when in use, its what they do.
