How hot does your screen get?

I've noticed that after running for a bit, my screen's surface gets pretty hot. There hasn't been any problems so far, but just wondering if I'm alone or not and should I be concerned

Mine gets rather cozy, but not burning. I'd say the same as touching a crappy laptop after running for a few hours in a confined space. It heats up the wrist area, but after the initial "damn that's toasty", it's not so bad. Now if it is like a furnace, then that is no good.

Yeah, I could say mine is the same. It's pretty hot, but not burning hot. I guess it's the backlight that heats up like this. It does not bother me at all, I just want to make sure that the screen is not in danger.

mine too, get pretty hot after few minutes
I won't worry about it since nobody complain about heat related fatality
