Dear Fyodor,

You can give all this explanation which is logical but the problem comes when you get a call while playing or charging phone you can feel the heat on your ears and palms which is the problem (phone gets heated near the flashlight and not near the battery) which is annoying.

As i mentioned earlier phones with lower processor and quick charging are not getting heated and i think Umi should have taken care of this.

Yea, the phone gets hot where the electronics are, the battery charge control circuit etc. Around the camera, lights area, where the phone's mainboard is.

UMi published a teardown video, in that video there seems to be a metal plate inside the back cover at that specific spot, this is to disperse heat along with the whole of the back cover metal.

I am afraid there is no solution to this, a less powerful phone might not heat at all or heat less, but consumers always want more powerful and faster device.

For comparison, check Sony Xperia Z3 (look at teardown pics / videos), this one even employs a heatpipe inside the phone, much like desktop / laptop cpu coolers do, to carry heat to the surface, which is then felt by the person using the phone, still it is the best they can do.
