    On new a new device it will higher temperature as it installs all updates on OS and also apps. But do check the following : use location GPS when necessary I keep mine off, when charging the phone try not to use it, checking the settings of your email accounts frequent syncs will result higher battery use and more heat if any, check the settings on your apps re DTEK, some apps have high data usage and also use more battery more heat, also are you using WiFi as this will be better and check your phone company signal low quality is higher batter drain and more heat.

    Good luck

    Sometimes it takes a while for a device to "settle in" after an update.

    Have you rebooted the phone, if not try that.

    Sometimes doing a Factory Reset is the easiest way to fix any conflicts that might be causing issues.

    There are threads on optimizing PRIV battery already - search for them.

    In settings / display, turn off adaptive brightness - that can make a big difference.
    I also turned my display brightness way down.
