This one-liner displays temperature:
paste <(cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone*/type) <(cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone*/temp) | column -s $'\t' -t | sed 's/\(.\)..$/.\1°C/'
Here are the results on Intel Skylake i-7 6700 HQ:
INT3400 Thermal 20.0°C
pch_skylake 91.0°C
SEN1 67.0°C
B0D4 61.0°C
SEN2 60.0°C
SEN3 68.0°C
SEN4 71.0°C
x86_pkg_temp 63.0°C
The packages sensors gets it’s information from the kernel /sys/class/... directories. You can get all info there which sensors is massaging to reveal to you.
NOTE: pch_skylake temperature is abnormally high on most machines. A short google search confirms this.
