I bought my Xperia z1 yesterday. I have updated it to 2.257 , with normal usage of 10-15 mins continuously the temp rises to around 33-35 and when i use Camera for around 5-10 mins even, temp rise to around 40 degree and with a game like subway surfers the temp rises to 42-43 degree ... 43 was the highest i saw so far...

Is this ok with this phone ? Or should i go to service center ?
I am using the premium cover i got with the phone, with that on I don't really feel the hotness in my hands but just want to be sure that this is normal heat up with this phone and my phone is not bad..

Also, when the phone is at 43 degree, should i stop using it and allow it to cool ? or should i keep playing the games , use the camera and all...

Any application that can help reduce the heating ?

That's normal but you could stop by a Sony repair center to get some peace of mind 

[VikasG]

So, if that's normal should i keep using the games and camera in that 40+ temperature ?

If it gets too hot it will shut down to avoid overheating, that will be your call, if you want to let your phone rest or not, keep in mind that the hotter it gets the faster the battery will deplete

its safe i play games like most wanted an the phone goes up to 54c however its safe as when i stop the game post about 1 hr or so and let the phone rest it cools right down to 23c - 27c

same here, i bought it this saturday and i'm regretting of that, i thought at the begining that it was the first time when you have to upgrade the whole mobile and install all new apps, but after one day using it only for whatsap and a bit of browser, cpu overheats so much...I hope anybody finds a solution and fix this issue because is not normal this kind of issues in one of the most expensives phones in the market

If you have been running heavily apps on the phone, which increase the core temperature of the phone, you might get this error message which is normal. The phone is to hot to start the camera and you'll need to wait until it cools down a bit. But if you get this error message without running heavy apps, making the phone hot, perhaps you should have the phone examined at a service center.
