Battery life is still trash 98% to 92% in 10 minutes
You gotta give it more than 45~ minutes. Its way more complex than that. If you use a battery health monitor app that measures the mAh of the battery, you will see that its not as simple as looking at the iOS battery % indicator.

The iOS battery % doesn't start to drain until the battery is really at 95%. Its not linear. The first 5% of the actual battery maintains 100% on the iOS indicator and then goes down from there. When iOS says 50%, the battery is really at 47.5% and at 0%, well they are both at 0%. The iOS indicator has only ever been an estimate.

Also, you just updated. The phone is doing background work.

My 6S Plus has stellar battery life on 9.3.1. Mine is Samsung chip. Lasts 2 days easily.

Those complaining of poor battery life are TSMC probably. :p

9.3.2 beta contains so little that I won't be installing and sacrificing my battery life of 9.3.1.

Its funny you mention that. I have a TSMC 6s and my GF has a Samsung. She has not had any battery problems on 9.3 Final and 9.3.1. But I've had nothing but problems since I updated to 9.3F from Beta.

I'm seeing the 'flashing' on the dark keyboard (also noticeable slightly on the white version) when you hit shift in 9.3.2 on my 6s. I'm not 100% sure, but I recall on 9.3 regular it was fixed but maybe I'm just not remembering it correctly. Can anyone chime in on whether or not the flash is present in their 9.3/.1 non beta devices?

Guys don't install this. Battery life is worse than 9.3.1. Went from 98% at 2:08pm to 82% at 2:43. WTF is this apple??

I have 9.3.1 and it's still there. Was present on 9.3 as well.

Share their issues with Apple not fight on a forum about it. ;)
Well you're the one upset, and this forum is made to share technical info and facts so...made in a respectful way, they're in all their right to complain...
If they fight a little, well, DISCUSSION FORUMS are usually for that

Some exagerate with tons of posts but that's the lesser part

Isnt that backwards of the testing that was done? TSMC supposedly the better of the two.

So call me crazy but ever since 9.2.1 the geek bench score goes higher and batter life gets lower. It's like they are trying to make this thing smoother but it's sacrificing battery life as well.

Whats 9.3.2 compared to 9.3.1 and 9.3?

I don't have the 9.2.1 log but I remember it going up a good amount on 9.3 from 9.2.1
Both my iPhone 6s and Air 2 are definitely faster. I guess they are just upping the CPU clock-rate, which like you said is decreasing battery life.

Devices are just about done charging. Will begin my battery test shortly.

9.3.2 seems pretty good for me. Stable, fast, smooth. Never noticed any reduced battery life on 9.3 either. It took Apple some monthe, but at least performance is acceptable again. Let's hope 10.0 won't be worse.
