This shouldn’t really shock us anymore, but a recent experience report shows just how poorly Google has controlled heat with the Pixel 6 Pro.
According to one reddit-post A Pixel 6 Pro owner developed a large rectangular burn mark at the heat sink location after just two years of use. This indicates that the smartphone’s tensor chip has reached critical temperatures.
According to the affected user, the error occurred during a 10-minute phone call, but it’s very likely that the real problems started much earlier.
It’s no secret that Google’s own Tensor chips have occasional problems with overheating Changes to the layout will eliminate poor heat dissipation with the Pixel 7 Pro.
For the Tensor G5, which is expected to be installed in the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro, Google will switch to TSMC as a manufacturer and design its own CPU and GPU. Still, the Exynos base of chips remains problematic — after all, there are probably millions of Pixel 6 Pros still in circulation.
