The company says there is no significant temperature issue, while noting that manufacturers\u2019 internal testing and device-specific tuning can affect results; demanding workloads may nevertheless lead modern flagship phones to reduce performance to control heat.",

It said manufacturers\u2019 internal test reports could be\ninaccurate or misleading, as each company makes its own adjustments to\nbalance performance and power consumption according to its intended\nuse.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, smartphone chip performance has advanced rapidly in recent\nyears, to the point that, in theory, these processors can run games on a\npar with those for computers.<\/p>\n<p>The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 series features two Prime cores clocked\nat up to 5.0 GHz and six Performance cores running at 4.0 GHz \u2013 high\nspecifications for a device that relies on passive cooling.<\/p>\n<p>While this increase in power does not necessarily mean a phone will\noverheat during normal everyday use, stress tests on various modern\nflagship phones often show sustained performance reductions to keep\ndevice temperatures stable.<\/p>",
