For ipad 4 owners-how is overheating now

[buerkletucson]

I wonder if they have the display brightness set at 100%, with it on all day long and at a setting like that I can imagine it heating up like an oven over time.

I dunno....

I never specifically checked the brightness settings on all 3 iPads I checked, but they all looked to be the same brightness and not excessive.
100% brightness is blinding so I don't think that's the case.

The difference in heat on the iPad 3 was astonishing...........crack some eggs on the back of the case and you'll be ready for breakfast in a few minutes.
Can't be good for the internals.

The iPad 4 was way cooler on the back.......not much warmer than the iPad 2.

Frankly it is not an issue I own an ipad3 and ipad 2 and it is on 7/24. Sometimes brightness is up higher and comparing it with our iPad 2 it is seems fine. Some users turn up the brightness full and play heavy games then maybe it will feel warmer but nothing to be concerned with. I can assure you if it was an issue my lovely partner would let me know as that is one thing she hates about laptops.

Our 3 gets very warm/hot on backside, my new 4 can be used for hours and is cool as a cucumber

Looks like is different experience for each of ipad 3 users though.
Thanks anyway

That must be right. Never had any heat problems after long use or recharging, with brightness usually about 1/3

My iPad 4 stays cool. I know this because I had to use it bare while waiting for my case to finally arrive.

My iPad 4 was overheating when playing 3d games in the first days but I didn't experience any overheating problems this week.

I do hope you threw something on before answering the door when your case arrived 😝

Lol. And deprive the delivery guy of some excitement?

I actually rarely see the delivery people. They usually just leave stuff at the door.

My 1st iPad 3 was warm. It had button problems and apple store replaced it. The second iPad3 is cooler. Neither was a problem to use because of the heat.
