New iPad hits 116 degrees while running games
- H_E_Pennypacker 15y ago116 degrees?! HOLY SHIT! Fahrenheit Pfft.
- pagekalisedown 15y agoAbout 47C. Enough to burn you.
- benihana 15y agoFTA: >During our tests, I held the new iPad in my hands. When it was at its hottest, it felt very warm but not especially uncomfortable if held for a brief period.
- jasonlotito 15y ago> not especially uncomfortable if held for a brief period. Not especially uncomfortable, but still uncomfortable. And this is under the condition it's for a brief period. So, not burning, but still, not the best news. Maybe it's a faulty device?

- pagekalisedown 15y agoThat's in F, which is about 33C. If it was C, that would be close to the temperature of boiling water (about 100C). Note: I'm not saying that's hot or cold, that's subjective. I'm just making sure we're comparing oranges with oranges.

- tomfakes 15y agoThere's a point on the outside of my 2010 macbook pro that is currently at 120F - and the computer is pretty idle - CPU temp is over 160F. 120F feels hot - I don't want to keep a finger in that spot for very long
- projct 15y agoSounds like your Macbook Pro has shoddy thermal paste. If it's under AppleCare still perhaps you should bring that to their attention? If not and they want you to pay, it's fairly easy to fix, ifixit should have a guide.
