S6 edge overheats and shuts down

newtothis — Thu, 30 Jul 2020 18:13:06 GMT

My S6 edge has twice now recently shut down two apps (radio and bluetooth) because it says it has overheated and is really (very) hot to touch. On occassions, when I have turned the camera on, I have heard a buzzing/fizzing sound for a few moments before it settles down and I am able to take pictures. this does not happen every time, though. Have I got problems? Phone/messaging/music/whatsapp works OK otherwise and it connects through bluetooth to the car.

As it's quite an old phone now, it could be coming to the end of it's useful life.

Might be worth considering an upgrade soon.
