It depends on how you're holding it and how spread that heat is. 46° isn't something great to be grasping for extended periods of time, but if you're physically touching 30°C parts of the phone and a part with no physical contact with your skin is 46°C, it's probably not that bad.

My s7 edge used to hit these temps. The annoying part was the throttling and shutdowns. I never really felt like I was burning my hands using the thing.

Excuse me, but this has "you're holding it wrong" energy. And according to this page, 44°C is starting to feel painful to touch, and 47° is enough to cause 1st degree burn.

Proteins and enzymes begin to denaturate at temps >40°C, that's why a feaver exceeding this temperature is dangerous and why we feel a warning pain at 44°C.
