“Parts of the phone reached a scorching 130° Fahrenheit, which is hot enough to burn your skin after about 30 seconds. During a few stress tests, the phone completely closed all apps and disabled functions like the LED flash to manage heat”.

I know this is during benchmarks and the average consumer would not get anywhere near this, but still… 130°F (54,44°C)?!? I think 113°F (45°C) is already a little too warm to be comfortable…

Well, if i can download a F-droid app via Playstore… then i’m basically not “sideloading” anything. This could be interesting!

But the whole (paid) ‘verification’ thing still is troubling tho. And we know Google; they are good at breaking things one way or another.
