Anyone' Lumia NOT freezing / restarting? [WIll be submitted to Nokia]

No freezing or restarting. I've had my phone turn off on me(not restart) exactly once in the past 2 months. Could be battery problem as the battery was showing around 15% at that time and could have been falsely reported by OS. Putting it on charger back brought back the phone on. Apps don't crash or restart the phone like my Focus used to do on me. But overheating and sudden battery drop are frequent with moderate to heavy use.
