so, After seeing many threads here; i think iphone 6 will run very slow on ios 11. so, thinking not to update and stay in ios 10.3.3
iOS 11 GM (just before apple pulled it), iPhone 6S plus. Battery life is abysmal. I've had to charge it twice.
After a workout with airpods, I use to be at around 60% battery. Now under 20%.
I've noticed the battery drains quickly in general. I've checked background processes, location services and turned more off even more services. Not liking this so far. I've got down below 10%, charged up to 100% and turned the power off to try to power cycle the phone.

This is planned obscolence. Nothing will help. My iPhone 7 too had better battery life on earlier versions of iOS 10 than on later ones. And the performance on iOS 10.0 was better than on 10.3.3 as well.
got a spare 6S here on the latest iOS 11 beta.
Safari is slow as .......
I can do my groceries, come back and then hopefully the site I tried to load before doing my groceries, finished loading.
No really, Safari is really slow (at least on my 6S that is)

I had the exact same problem with my 6S+, but ever since I did a proper wipe and restore with a fresh install my battery life has been REALLY good. It took about a day to settle down, but after that... it has been great.
Right now... running the latest beta, I have 66% battery life with 3h48m of usage and 9h26m of standby. Usage has been mostly safari, twitter, etc...
Please share what settings you did to get this.. I'm at 78% right now, usage of 1hr 21min with a stand by of 4h 58min
Nothing special. I haven’t been going out of my way settings wise. I’m using IMAP IDLE in my email, lots of notifications, location services on, brightness around 50%, etc...
I wiped my phone and reinstalled everything from scratch. I found my battery life stayed really bad when I upgraded from iOS 10. It took 1-2 days for my battery life to settle down on the latest beta, but since then everything has been good.
