iOS 10 public beta battery life

9.3.3 vs 10.0 b2

Mine is really poor on 6S+. Settings and home and lock screen biggest culprits.

Same. My home & lock screen was chewing through battery like nobodies business. A restart seems to have helped it for now.

The best battery life ever on my iPhone 6.I only charge my phone twice as compared to 4 times a day on iOS 9

Decreased significantly also, and my iPhone 6S seems to be shutting off at about 10-15% battery which isn't the most helpful thing to be honest.

I too experienced dramatically worse battery life and so I went back to 9.3.2 and all is well again.....i imagine Apple will diagnose the issue before final release.

FWIW, it was a royal pain going back...the process seemed straightforward enough but for some reason items would not allow me to restore to my backup so I had to set up as new and then restore to an iCloud backup and then re-pair to my watch...yada, yada.

I still have 10 on my iPad mini and it seems to not be draining the battery too quickly but i don't use it nearly as much as my phone.

Just my .02

Ya’ll are seriously unlucky. I'm at 76% right now with 2 hours 8 mins usage and 6 hours 14 minutes of standby. My battery life is so much better on the beta than it ever was on 9.x.x

After going back to 9.3 my battery life seems to have gone back to normal......I have no idea why we seem to have such different experiences wrt battery life and IOS 10????

50% battery remaining

3 hr 53 minutes usage
11 hr 12 minutes standby

Well...after my restart last night to fix frozen Snapchat messages, phone started updating over 40 apps, got hot, burned through half the battery in less than 20 minutes.

Did another restart after everything was downloaded and fully charged overnight. Now it seems as though my draining issue is "fixed"...phone is still at 100% despite typically still burning power when plugged in the car charger and using Apple Maps. And has been off charge for 1/2 hour now and still at 100%.

We'll see how the rest of the day goes, but this has been the typical scenario with me and betas...always fixes itself within the first week.

How's your battery life? Mine is rather bad compared to 9.3.3 beta 5

7 hours usage
11 hours standby

14% left

Normally I get 10-12 hours usage and at least 20-25 hours standby

Mine has been fine. 6S+

It's reasonable on my iPhone, but my iPad's standby time has gone through the floor currently, tracking to run flat in under a week of standby, vs the month or so it should be. ( wifi only model )

When is ios10 PB 2 being released? I was expecting it either yesterday with the new developer beta or today as usually its a day after developer...

Sometimes essentially at the same time as the developer beta, usually some time after it, like a day or two or sometimes a little more than that.

My worse with the 10 iOs and better than on the previous one. Can not tell you the reasons why, but I feel to sell the phone(

I have definitely seen a difference in battery on my 6s between iOS 9.3 and iOS 10 PB. While it's not bad enough for me to downgrade back down to iOS 9.3, I still see a difference.
