**Testing the Performance of Redmi 2 with Gaming and Heat Gun**
As we begin our test, it's clear that this device is capable of handling demanding games without any significant issues. Let's start by playing Dead Trigger, a popular first-person shooter game known for its intense action sequences. The device's performance is impressive, with smooth frame rates and responsive controls. We've been gaming for about 7 minutes now, and the temperatures are starting to rise, but the device remains cool to the touch.
**Testing Asphalt 8 at High Graphics Settings**
Next, we move on to Asphalt 8, another high-performance game that pushes the device's graphics capabilities to the limit. We're using the highest graphics setting by default, which is set to medium earlier in the test. However, since our goal was to see how it performs at its highest level, we've kept it on high. The game runs smoothly, with only occasional drop frames visible when you look closely. The device's heat gun reveals that temperatures are rising, particularly around the screen and back of the device.
**Testing One More Level and Modern Combat 5**
We then switch to One More Level, a more casual game, to assess the device's performance at medium graphics settings. We play for a couple of minutes, and the device handles it with ease, without any issues or lagginess. Next, we move on to Modern Combat 5, a more resource-intensive game that requires high-end hardware to run smoothly. Despite this, the Redmi 2 performs admirably, handling even the most demanding levels with minimal drop in performance.
**Assessing Heat and Temperature Performance**
As we continue our test, it becomes clear that while the device can handle demanding games without issue, it does get warm during extended gaming sessions. The heat gun reveals temperatures around 40°C near the screen, but significantly hotter on the back of the device, reaching up to 43°C. This is not extremely hot, but it's still noticeable.
**Conclusion and Final Thoughts**
Based on our test results, we can conclude that the Redmi 2 is a capable gaming device, able to handle most games without significant issues. However, it does get warm during extended gaming sessions, particularly around the screen and back of the device. The device's performance at high graphics settings is impressive, but not always smooth. Nonetheless, for casual gamers looking for a reliable and affordable device, the Redmi 2 is definitely worth considering.

**Final Thoughts on Heat and Temperature Performance**
Finally, regarding heat and temperature performance, we found that while the device can handle demanding games without issue, it does get warm during extended gaming sessions. However, this is not extremely hot, and the device's cooling system does an adequate job of managing temperatures.
