Massive!
Sony's recall of 8 million laptop batteries cost an estimated $430 million dollars for example, so it isn't small.
I wonder how many different phones are affected.

I don't think web browing is intensive.
Video streaming is intensive as you have sound, graphics and data streaming all activated so I wouldn't expect your battery to get hot just browsing the web, well not unless you have the radio going too.
