So far I didn't have that problem. The phone is made of plastic. Only the back case is made of metal.But if you ask me, I'll say stay away from this phone. It is riddled with bugs (well, people who heavily use the phone's functions like syncing, emailing, adding memo in calendar etc would notice it). But if you primarily use it for sms or call, you won't experience the problem at all, hence the many glowing reviews from it's users.

Im not sure if its healthy or not but its happening because electricity is being transferred and with it being in an enclosed space (your purse) the heat from it charging your phone has no were to go so it continues to build hotter and hotter. If I charge my phone while it's in my purse I normally have the battery inside my purse and the phone in and outside pocket. That seems to work really well for me. :)

Same problem here; one battery swelled while in use, enough to pop the back off the phone case. It was hot to the touch; I thought it might burst. I came on here looking for warranty information.

The only time it got hot on me was when I was playing a game on my phone while it was charging (yeah I know - not the smartest thing to do!). The charger does not get hot during normal charging when the phone is not in use. However I would send a note to Anker and ask them about ventilation. Any battery or energy device generally needs some type of ventilation during use. Even Kindle says that if you have the reader in a protective cover, leave the cover open for ventilation during charging.

Not while on the phone, however if you keep raking it off and putting it back on it will (the black rubber part). And I didn't have a problem with the battery over heating.

I have not notice the keyboard getting hot. I do not use it for a long period of time. As far as the letters on the keys lasting a long time, I only have used it for a short time. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

Try and position the phone so you get more air flow to it. Charging plus a cpu intensive program can generate some real heat fast. If it's in a weather proof case you may need a diffrent one that allows better air flow.

The rubber grip does Not get hot. However, the metal ring near the grip does get hot. In the picture to the left, from where the versa shows it sitting on the stand, to the right of the stand gets as hot as you set the temperature. I love mine it is worth every penny. I love it so much I purchased one for a friend.

I just bought this. I put both levers down, turned the dial to high, and when they popped up, the entire outside (except the strip around the very bottom) is so hot that you can't touch it without getting burned. I think it would probably melt any plastics that were inadvertently pushed against it. I think I'm going to return it just for this reason, even though I haven't toasted with it.Addendum: My BF was appalled at how hot this became, so he shone a flashlight all around inside, and you can see there is NO insulation between the outside walls and the metal lining the slots. No wonder it gets so hot. I just bought this.

Mine does not, but sometimes it gets really hot to the point I am concerned that it may melt the plastic case or cause a fire

No the phone does not heat while in the case. The battery does not drain because if the case. It allows for touch screen access, but it is not extremely easy to access the screen for adjustments while exercising; however, for the price, it is an excellent value!

I can only give you the link to the detailed specifications of this device on the Nokia page.http://www.nokia.com/us-en/accessories/accessory/dt-900/specifications/I will say that I have never really had functional problems with this plate. It does get VERY hot sometimes so I don't leave my phone on it for a prolonged amount of time. Because of the heat issue, I suppose, I generally charge the phone at night through the USB port cable. I have the charger plate on my charging valet for convenience during the day.

When using the phone very much for an extended period, it does get a little warm, but I haven't experienced any problems with overheating.

I think high temperatures would be considered charging it in a very very location like 80+ degrees or charging it in direct sunlight. I would take it as the advice given as NOT to leave one's cellular phone in a hot car. Heat lowers the internal resistance but this stresses the battery.

I have never had issues with overheating during normal use. However, I would caution that this is a sealed protective case. If you are having heating issues and the weather isn't terribly hot and/or direct sunlight is not the issue causing the overheating this case will not be any better than cases you have used in the past.

No clue. If you're getting one keep and eye on the battery and temp of the phone. It gets awfully hot very fast

Hi Jewel1207. I would say that is a Isolated incident. If you think about it, there is no material in the case that would conduct heat at all. Only the phone itself could pass heat through the case. I have used this case on my phone, which is my business phone, and spend many hours on it every day of the week. I have never once felt the phone or the case get hot in any spots. For someone that wants the protection of the top of the line case, but doesnt want that bulkiness, this is the perfect product! I also advise getting a Invisi-sheild screen protector on it as well. -D Hall Investments Hi Jewel1207. I would say that is a Isolated incident.
