I upgraded from the 4a to the 6a - it's the 5G chipset/connection generating all that heat even when idle. Within the first week I disabled 5G to run on 4G and the heat level is just fine - I live in a metro area with good towers (and use T-Mobile home internet with great speeds) so it's not a signal strength problem, my signal stats are great. It's simply using 5G on the phone generating an uncomfortable amount of heat. (Settings -> Network - > SIMS / T-Mobile -> Preferred Type -> 4G) $0.02 ad-hoc experience
