You are correct in general, but not correct when referring to iOS. A few years ago, Apple made the change how iOS updates to only update the NEW content/code, rather than downloading the whole iOS again each time. Check this article out: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/qa/qa1779/_index.html. It's referring to Apps, but they implemented into their own iOS updates too.
No one would expect battery problems on a brand new 8 Plus anyway, since iOS 11 is optimized for the 8 and the X.
It's about "older" devices like the 7 or 6s that have been hit hard.
No, actually, they're just specifically targeting you, Teammm, that cable still works for everyone else.
I mean, if you're going to jump straight to paranoid conspiracy theories, at least jump all the way in. Probably best if you put on a tin-foil hat and hide under the bed.

Keep in mind also that a new major OS release is going to spend a looong time re-indexing files, photos, apps, etc., which always skews initial battery life when installing on a non-empty phone. Check battery life again in a week.

Yes it doesn’t work all the time with my SE. It always worked on iOS 10 for me.
Looking forward to them to continue to update,, has seemed buggy has heck on my 6S+ ... think it's kinda funny they call out unresponsiveness on 6S as due to non genuine parts... mine has never been touched and was bought new and has those issues
Yea I have a 6S and had the issue where the touch screen becomes unresponsive.
I like the weekly updates but Apple forgets consumers aren’t Apple employees where they compile and recompile everyday running multiple OS versions. Kind of a catch 22. Updates are easy and simple. Releasing them so frequently seems like there’s QC issues.
Eh, at this point I would reboot iOS, it's such a mess. I would personally make it look like MacOS on phones so there's a cohesive look (Google did that with their Material design). Just take the apps from the desktop, apply the same style (cuz it's pretty great right now in my opinion) and optimize the ***** out of them so they're fun and convenient to use with touch controls. After that, polish it till it shines even if it takes longer to release it.
Something like this. A very similar layout to the desktop iTunes, optimized for mobile.
Then I'd put booby traps in my office in case Jony Ive ever comes near it.

iOS7 was minimalistic, some say ugly, but it was consistent. With iOS 10-11 everything turned into a UI/UX mess. It's so sad...
The iOS 11 release is a new low in term of aesthetics. Ugly massive rounded corners. The control center is a joke, with controls which look like tampons. Inconsistency with color palettes, white/dark themes mess, Bold headlines, crap transitions... I'm terrified with the direction Apple is heading to... It's getting worse with every new release.
Dear Apple, make iOS beautiful again!
How about you just do that in setting and let the rest of us enjoy the new and very useful feature of just letting those buttons disconnect. Normal people don’t need to turn the radios off and on several times a day, and neither do “tech-savvy” people. A few people might, and they can use settings, it’s not like it’s a big problem.
Apple cares more about TC's social activism and emojis.iOS7 was minimalistic, some say ugly, but it was consistent. With iOS 10-11 everything turned into a UI/UX mess. It's so sad...

Oh Jeez, thanks for the warning. I’m in the middle of an art project on mine and don’t need that happening to me. Sorry, man...good luck to you.
Honestly I had some battery issues with my 6s plus after the update. After the second update my battery life seems to be better. But there is something running in the background that’s kind of taking some juice from my battery. I’ll get up first thing in the morning get my phone of the charger and not use it until I get to work to send my wife a text. After that one use, my phone will be in my pocket for three hours and my battery goes 100 to 96%. Something is just running in the background.
Is this a security hole that's unique on 11.0.3 or have existed all the way back?
Just installed 11.0.3 whilst in the car (after wifi download at home). My iPhone7 booted up and connected normally via CarPlay with graphics on the car unit screen. Then I was able to access CarPlay functionalities, including phone calls, all without entering the login security code on the iPhone.
This can't be right!
