A full list of specifications for the upcoming Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 edge Plus have leaked out ahead of Samsung’s official unveilings. Both devices are expected to carry similar displays — though one will be curved on both sides — and there will be big differences internally.

Snapdragon 810 supporters will try to convince you there’s nothing wrong with Qualcomm’s latest chip, but the video below proves its tendency to get too hot is a very real problem. Watch Sony’s new Xperia Z3+ overheat and crash in a matter of seconds while running the build-in Camera app.
