Does this case trap heat? My S3 has overheated with my current case.

I have had mine for over a year and haven't experienced my phone to over heat. As a matter of fact I have used this same style case on the last three phones I've had and never experienced any problems. I luv this case. Hope this helps.

No I have not noticed it trapping heat. I am extremely happy with it and it takes a beating at work.

No it doesn't trap heat, and that's the beauty of it. This case is a really great quality for a low price.

It does not. The only downside I have found is that it makes your phone slightly heavier and when charging with the case, the phone/case get warm. Otherwise the charger works fine.

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.

I haven't had that issue at all. It actually helps keep my phone cool and the magnet is facing the screen so it doesn't cause any problems mechanically. Best case I've brought.

Do you have the S3 ? If so yes it should be. You might stretch out the rubber a bit after time though. Also, if you are having issues with your battery time, you should try and download battery doctor. I used to have a lot of issues with my battery time and once I downloaded that, I don't have any issues any more. It's great! And I love my phone case!!!!

NO. Put in the search above for a charging case for the S3. Then get the one that goes for the S3. They are awesome!!

Well Benji A. Aspherheim it does a little bit more than without the case but that is because all the heat is trapped and can not get out but i do recommend that you give it a space or room to let all the hot heat escape. I hope that answers your question. :)

The fan sits over the fan opening in the back of the case. Remember that heat rises and more can be drawn out with a couple of fans on top. Just remember to use canned air to keep them clean.

No my phone doesnt get hot, this case is extremely thin especially compared to the otter box... although its not the same protection as far as waterproof. But I've dropped my phone multiple times from about 5 feet and its survived every time. The only downside is that I have to take the case off to use my aux cord. Other than that its perfect

It works very well!! I have never had a problem with mine. It's one of my favorite features of this case.

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.

No it does not make your phone over heat. I purchased mine last year and it works great. I can lay it on its side and it will fully charge my phone. I have a Samsung galaxy Note III and it charges my phone very quickly. I am planning on purchasing another one for my job.

My phone has gotten hot, but I don't think it is because it is in a case. I usually give it a rest. My last phone got hot A LOT... this one has only done it to me once and as someone else said, it is probably from heavy use. I shut off my phone and let it rest a bit and it cooled down quickly. If this is not an option, closing all the apps not in use and just letting it sit for a little would work too.

No, S3 only.. well at least this model.. I'm sure if you looked for one that is S5 they may makeIt.. S5 is still really new, so S5 cases may be limited. Give it a week of two and you'll have better results. A good suggestion to stick with these cases tho.. mine still looks brand new, and I recently dropped into a puddle of oil, accidently of course.. wiped it of with a cloth no issues still looks new.. I'd post a picture if I could..

Although the case will fit, I have found that it causes the tablet to overheat. I would recommend finding one that allows for the heat generated by the tablet to vent properly

I have been using this for several months. I am using a micro SD adaptor with this CF adaptor. I have never noticed any heat buildup.
