hi everyone. My new iPhone 6 with full brightness is heating up where the ear speaker is. It is not hot but very warm there. This issue goes away when brightness is around half. Is this worth me fixing, it’s a very unusual place for heat? Thanks
Got a tip for us?

You pretty much answered your own question by saying the problem goes away when the brightness is at half, otherwise the phone wouldn’t cool down when turning the brightness down if there was something else going on. Warm is normal. Hot to the touch is a problem. Full brightness will cause the phone to be warm as it’s drawing a decent amount of power to keep the screen brightness maxed out.
