🎮 Poco X6 Pro: Why is my phone overheating while gaming?

My Poco X6 Pro overheats badly within ten minutes of gaming, getting hot enough near the camera area that it becomes uncomfortable to hold. Frame rates also drop noticeably once it heats up this much. Closing background apps beforehand has not made a real difference. What settings might help here?

Lower the game’s graphics quality and set the frame rate to a moderate level instead of maximum. • Turn off features such as high-resolution textures, HDR, or enhanced visual effects if available. • Reduce the screen refresh rate to 60Hz while gaming. • Disable 5G temporarily if you are gaming on Wi-Fi, as poor mobile signal can increase heat. • Avoid gaming while the phone is charging, and remove the case during long gaming sessions. • Make sure the Poco X6 Pro is updated to the latest system version. • If it still becomes extremely hot within ten minutes and performance drops significantly, have the battery and cooling system checked by a technician.
