My iPhone 5s constantly disconnects from Wi-Fi and goes to LTE every day. Also, even on low power mode, the battery drains like CRAZY. According to the Battery tab in Settings, I haven't even hit an hour of screen on usage without it getting below 10%.

As a disclaimer, apparently my batter only holds 83% of the original charge capacity.

had not had battery issues until 11.4

toughed it out and watched the battery almost spin down.

killed apps, deleted apps, turned off background running and notifications.

weirdly, it seemed Safari was hog on my 6s+

upgraded to beta 12 and still had some issues.

ended up with new Xs Max and battery is phenomenal. Not sure if it was the final release software. should upgrade my old phone now and see ;)

marketing ploy to attract sales? yeah everyone has a theory. but something they did between 11.3 and 11.4 really caused big changes to me.
