JUST GOT MY PB !
So beautiful.
When I charge it, it heats up, is it normal ? From the back.
On the first few charges mine was burning. It gets better i think.
So i think thats normal. Someone confirm?
Mine does too
Hey Wangta do you happen to be korean? lol
Yup, hahahaha, how did you know? :P
The battery does tend to heat up while charging, but it should be minimal. However, you should also make sure that you keep your PB on standby if you do not want to use it while charging, and also have unnecessary apps minimized. This seems to keep it cooler.
If you feel that there is some problem and the battery seems to be really heating up beyond normal standards, then you can buy the app called "Battery guru" from the app world. It monitors internal temperature of the battery, it normally shouldn't go beyond 38C (as far as I have noticed on my PB)... but the app will give u a picture on if there is a problem.
Good luck !
Wangdda in korean.
It means loner/loser.
Not saying you are one. just saying thats why I thought. lol
If you have a problem with heating up, OR anything else hardware related, be assured the PB is still under manufacturers warranty.
DO NOT USE A THIRD PARTY 'REPAIR' APP
Call technical support to get a replacement

mine heats up while in use and it a bit worrying...i have only had it for a weak.
If you are reffering to battery guru as a "repair" app that's not accurate. It simply records the tempature as reported by the OS. There is also very good support behind the app.
Everyone has a different definition of warm and hot.
During charging and moderate/heavy use I would say my PB is warm. It's been the same since april.
