Heat Problems, U.S. S7 Edge (G935a)



I have had my phone for a new months now and have noticed an incredible amount of heat. So I started to use CPU-Z to monitor temps.

When idle, the phone sits anywhere between 32-45 degrees C. Under load, using the camera, using navigation, or during gaming, I feel the phone rapidly gaining heat. I've seen it got as hot as 70-80 degrees C. A few times the right side of the phone gets so hot that the right aluminum edge feels like it could burn my hand if I touch it for longer than 30 seconds.

At first I thought this could be a firmware issue so I've factory reset the phone multiple times, cleared the cache, and done everything I can think of. The problem persists. Is this how all Snapdragon variant S7 Edges are, or is mine a lemon? If you could please post your idle temps and temps after 15-30 minutes of high load, I would be grateful.
