At present, you will get this feature only in gaming phones or flagship phones. This feature is currently not available in budget smartphones. Vapor chamber is a cooling system whose job is to remove heat from the smartphone and keep the device cool.

What is a vapor chamber and how does it work?

The vapor chamber installed in the phone is a flat vacuum sealed metal container which is filled with a small amount of liquid. As the phone heats up, the liquid turns into gas, cools down and condenses.

When the phone gets too hot, the performance of the phone drops, this is called thermal throttling. This is the reason why you start complaining of frame drops during gaming. The vapor chamber keeps the phone cool so that you can do gaming for a long time. The vapor chamber helps protect the phone from thermal throttling.
