My Pixel 7a shut down in 90 degree heat during a travel day

I was waiting for a bus in Austin last July and my phone just turned off randomly. It was 95 degrees out and the screen was super hot to the touch. Took like 20 minutes in an air conditioned Starbucks before it would even turn back on. Has anyone else had a midrange phone give up on them just because of summer weather?

You're supposed to be grateful that your phone cares enough about its own health to take a nap. Maybe try putting it in the fridge next time.

So you think cooling it down would actually help or just make it worse? Have you tried that before?
