Hey everybody!
I got my m4 macbook pro base model last week. Everything was fine but for the last couple of days bottom part of the laptop is getting a bit warm. Nothing crazy but you can feel it while using on your lap. And it wasn't like that when i first got the laptop. There was a macOS update few days ago i am not sure that if it is related, idk.. Anyone having a similar issue?
Btw, using very basic apps like spotify, browser, telegram, whatsapp, mail etc..
Macs are designed to be able to run as high as 60 degrees C (114 F) day in and day out, without issue. Older intel Macs routinely got so hot Apple was too concerned about burning you, so the called them all "Notebook computers" . Once Apple-silicon Macs were introduced, notebook computers were finally cool enough to actually be used on your lap.
if you would like a deeper analysis, Consider downloading and running this little "discovery" utility, Etrecheck. It changes NOTHING. Etrecheck was developed by senior contributor here, and uses system calls to collect often-needed information.
it contains little tests for speeds of devices, CPU utilization, memory usage, energy usage and a digest of recent problems, in one easy to use package. it does not even need to be Installed. Because less can be learned when your Mac is running great, best time to run is when your problems are actually occurring, if possible.
if you follow the directions faithfully, its report (pre-laundered of all personally-identifiable information) can be "Shared" to the System ClipBoard, then Pasted into an ‘Additional Text’ window in a reply on the forums.
Use Etrecheck Pro for free:

By far the easiest way to cause poor performance, instability, overheating and crashing is to install ANY third-party speeder-uppers, Cleaners, Optimizers, or Virus scanners, Bit Torrent, or a VPN that you installed yourself.
¿Are you running any of those?
No, i am not using any apps like those.
This problem has started after the macOS 15.1.1 update. I am not 100% sure of course but that update might caused this.
what Browser?
Brave and Safari. I tried them separately. Nothing has changed.
