Nokia 6650 Fold gets very warm/hot – battery problem?

When I'm on a voice call on my Nokia 6650 Fold for about 5 minutes, it gets really warm, practically hot.  It's like the battery is burning my cheek.  Is that normal?  Anyone else have this problem?     I use the phone only for voice -- no apps running in the background, no data, no GPS, no accidentally hitting the PTT or anything else (which everyone knows is already a problem).   This happens when I'm sitting still in the strong-reception area of West Los Angeles, so it's not due to switching towers.  3G network.   The battery meter/indicator also shows full charge for 2 days (no drop in charge), then it drains completely sometime through the 3rd day.  I'm still within my 30 day exchange period, but I'm worried that a replacement would only be worse.  Seems that battery life is a crapshoot for users.

Video Daily: Flash 10.1 does not kill Android battery life

Adobe's Mark Doherty has shot back today at critics that have been reporting that Flash 10.1 kills the battery life of Android devices, posting a video in its defense. The 17-minute video shows Doherty running a video on the non-mobile YouTube site, and after its done, shows the battery meter which has seen only 6 percent of the battery drained. Doherty even goes on to say that they have tested a two-hour movie and still had life left.
