I heard that a lot of iPhone 3GS had heating problems, never had it on mine, but I noticed that my iPhone 4 gets really hot after some use. I was uploading a video on YouTube and I took a picture with flash on a couple times. After a while I noticed that my phone was REALLY warm, especially around the metel edges.

Later on tonight I was playing around with ichatr and after a while, it started getting hot too.

Anyone else having some hot/warm phones?

Mine gets hot when I am on the phone for a while

Have not noticed anything of concern with mine. As mentioned above it only seems to be noticeable when talking for extended periods of time.

My old black jack used to get warm when I talked on it for a while.

It gets warm(er), but not hot by any means.

I have not noticed any type of warmth that I would be concerned about.

Mine gets noticeably warm in a matter of minutes whether I am playing a game, checking email, or even listening to music. I cannot tell whether the heat is just exaggerated by the steel sides and glass back, but given my poor battery life, I think mine is suffering from hardware issues. If you are concerned about yours, take it to Apple to see what they think. At the very worst, they will tell you yours is perfectly normal.
