For students entering the exam season, doing projects, or office workers, digital content creators who have to handle work for many hours continuously, the situation of machine heating and lag starts to appear more often.
According to records at a coffee shop on Nguyen Phong Sac street (Hanoi), Thanh Binh - who works in the field of Marketing, constantly has to sit in front of the computer screen to edit content and handle work.

In recent days, the outdoor temperature in Hanoi has been continuously high, making long-term laptop use more uncomfortable. Although using a fairly thin and light machine, Binh's device still heats up quickly after a long time opening many browser tabs, editing videos and running work tools.
Recently, I almost don't dare to use the phone in my rented room because it's too hot. One day, while editing a video, the phone ran hot in the keyboard part with the bottom, making it quite uncomfortable to touch," Binh shared.
Binh said that he has to add a heating pad and often brings a laptop to a coffee shop with air conditioning to work.
The rented room is cramped, and it is on the top floor, so the temperature is very high. If you both plug in the charger and edit content for a long time, the machine will heat up very quickly," Binh said.
A similar situation also happened to Minh Anh - a graphic design student in Hanoi. In recent weeks, Minh Anh has often had to stay up late to edit videos and complete his final designs during the prolonged hot weather.
Minh Anh said that although the air conditioner has been turned on continuously, the laptop still heats up quickly when having to handle heavy tasks continuously. According to the female student, the small rented room after a whole day of hot sun is often very stuffy and sultry, and in the evening the temperature is still high.
“Someday I sat down to work until late at night and the laptop fan was spinning continuously, the heat emanating was very clear. Even though the air conditioner was turned on, the machine was still hot because I had to render video for many hours,” Minh Anh said.
To limit overheating, the female student had to prop up the laptop, use a mini fan to direct it to the cooling area and let the machine rest between video releases.
I am not qualified to change to a new machine, so I just try to keep the machine operating stably through the design season. This hot weather is really stressful for laptops that have been used for many years," Minh Anh shared.
Not only students studying design or creating content, many laptop users serving online learning, doing homework or casual entertainment are also beginning to clearly feel the situation of devices heating up faster in the summer.
According to Mr. Le Ngoc Minh - a laptop repair technician in the Cau Giay area (Hanoi), high ambient temperatures are one of the reasons why many devices are prone to overheating.

Laptops that have been used for several years often have dry thermal paste, a lot of dust sticks to the fans and vents. When it's hot, the machine has to work harder to cool down, so it's very easy to get hot or reduce performance.
According to Mr. Minh, many people have a habit of placing laptops on blankets, mattresses or using them in a stuffy space, which hinders the airflow and causes the temperature inside to rise faster.
In addition, both charging and running heavy tasks such as playing games, editing videos or opening many applications continuously for a long time also makes laptops easily overloaded with heat.
To limit this situation, users are advised to place laptops on flat, airy surfaces; clean the cooling fans periodically and replace heating glue with long-used machines.
At the same time, users should limit using laptops directly in the sun, avoid letting the machine operate continuously for many hours and can use a heating pad if they regularly have to handle heavy tasks.
If the laptop shows abnormal heat signs, the fan rotates very loudly, performance drops, or turns off automatically, users should check it early to avoid affecting the battery and internal components.
