Talking about the big brother Pixel 6 Pro, it has a 5nm Tensor chipset, Android 12, bigger display, triple rear cameras, under-display fingerprint sensor, bigger battery, and more. However, it seems that some Google Pixel 6 Pro users are getting affected by the Aggressively Overheating Problem without any heavy usage.

Well, this particular issue has been reported by plenty of affected users on the official Pixel Phone Help forum literally for a month as of now. It’s also worth mentioning that the Pixel 6 Pro is quite new in the market and although it’s a premium segment device, not everyone uses their devices extremely. In that context, it seems that even though some Pixel 6 Pro users are using this handset normally and using a few apps lightly, the device gets overheating a lot.

Do not use video streaming or video playback at that moment until your phone cools down.

Keep your Pixel 6 Pro in a well-ventilated area to properly dissipate heat.
Do not use thick mobile cases for a while until the device cools down.
You can try using a cooling fan (made for smartphones) to check if that helps or not.

If nothing works for you and the device gets too much hot to touch then disconnect it from the charger first.
