Does HTC ONE M9 warms a lot?

As the title say, any M9 users here who can tell me their current experience with said phone? Does its temperatures increase alot when using media or playing games? I've read that this has been big issue on M9 due Snapdragon 810 (that's why Samsung went with Exynos processor), so idk if it's fixed now? People were reporting it was getting hot to that point you can't even hold it normally.

I'm really having hard times deciding between M8 or M9 to buy it. Both have pros and cons.
 
It's a coin flip.
I liked both,but,the M9 was better for me,I liked the feel-in-hand much better
Put a case on it & that difference disappears.
The heat issues were exaggerated,& any real concerns have been addressed in an update.
Some say the battery life is better w/the M8.
My overall opinion,they're evenly matched.'If you want a newer device,get the M9.
Otherwise,save a few $ & get the M8.
 
My ONE M7 was getting much hotter than my M9 when using it and charging it in the car. The M7 would be too hot to hold in your hand! So far the M9 doesn't seem to be getting anywhere near as hot, and it does feel much faster and more responsive than my M7.

Also the M7 and M8 had that 4 uPixel sensor that goes pink/purple when it gets hot. The M9 uses that camera for the front camera, but not the main camera, so I haven't noticed it going pink yet.
