Tips to Prevent Pixel 3 Overheating:

  • Verify if any misbehaving app is the cause of the issue. There might be some apps on your device which are eating an unusual amount of battery and also forcing the screen to stay awake which result in overheating issue. This thing can be checked by going to Settings > Battery. If a third party app is responsible, then this might be the culprit which is creating such issue that can be resolved simply by uninstalling the app from your Google Pixel 3;
  • Remember that depth of discharge also affects battery life. It’s best not to let the charge run down to zero percent. If you charge from, say, 30 percent up to 90 percent, you’re treating your battery nicely and preventing cell phone overheating. Although it might sound rather unpleasant, it could more than double the amount of charge cycles you get out of a battery;
  • Use only cases or covers made for your specific device. Even more, a case or cover can trap heat emitted from the handset, so if you need the device to cool off a bit, strip it and expose the body to the air;
  • While leaving it easily accessible may be better for you, it is terrible for your phone. Your phone catches light and heat from the sun and retains it, getting hotter the longer it remains in the sun. Keep your device away from direct heat or excessive sunlight;
  • You should also avoid keeping your device in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas;
  • Allowing apps you’re not using to run in the background drains the battery and increases the heat on your Pixel 3. Therefore, always turn off unused apps on your phone.
