IPhone 5 overheating issues while charging?

When it charges I take it out of its case and it still gets HOT. Like the sides heat up and it burns to hold it. I usually check my email and surf the web while charging it too can that be causing it?

Yes, while your phone is charging, you should never still be on it, that could cause it to get too hot. Just let it charge some, then if you want, take it off and do what you want, then put it back on to charge the rest of the way.

  • Why is my iPhone 4 overheating? It always says iPhone to hot get out of sun and shuts down, where I live it's 45F and cloudy, WTF!
  • Overheating iPhone 5 after throwing it? I was very stressed out this morning (my roommate was defacing my property as a "joke") and in a moment of anger, I tried to throw my iPhone against my pillow, but I missed and hit the wall. Now it is overheating, losing battery life, and it is continually searching for a cellular signal. Any ideas how to fix it, or do I need to buy a new phone? *By the way, I know throwing the phone was stupid and wrong. I just need to find a solution to the problem at hand.
  • Ipod Touch/Iphone charging keep it unplugged from your sound system while charging? Just called up apple and found out the answer, decided to share it with the world to keep your sound systems safe. If your charge your ipod touch or Iphone, Have it unplugged from your sound system. Cheers. kind of agree with you man, But my logitech z5500 system is like $1000 new right now… Insane, don't want to take a chance. But your probably right.
  • IPhone charging issues? When I put my phone on charge it charges for about a minute then it will randomly go off charge. So I have to unplug and replug in my phone. I've restarted the phone, cleaned the port, tried multiple apple chargers but it's all the same. Apple support have been no help. It's a 6s. Today I went to a shop to get the port changed which fixed the problem for 5 minutes but it's started up again.
