It is not at all unusual for an iPad to become warm when being used - more so when using some types of iPad case. High screen brightness and/or CPU intensive Apps will create more heat.


The key point is that whilst your iPad may become very warm in normal use, the iPad should not become uncomfortably hot to handle. If your iPad becomes uncomfortably hot to hold, you should take the iPad along to the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store - where the technicians can examine and test your iPad for faults.
