Mine's not doing so well. Currently at 79% with minimal usage. I'd estimate being in the 88-95% battery range if on 9.3.2.
Got a tip for us?

The battery thing is usually the worst thing about betas
Battery drain has been very noticeable, but I almost found that it is mis-reporting battery percentage.
My 6s was down to about 25% battery by 11:30AM with very minimal use (it would usually be around 80%). At that point, my phone crashed and restarted. When it was back on, the battery had jumped up to 38% which, while still poor, is better than 25%!
Has anyone else noticed similar behavior?

No change here, same as before. Did OTA update.I can't judge at the moment, I'm just about to take my phone off from a full charge to run a proper test.
Saying that, is anybody else's iPhone getting insanely hot when charging? Just pulled out the heat gun, and it seems to be sat about 41 degrees Celsius...

Mine was a fresh install. I don't have any third apps installed. It's still on charge now, and is doing a good job at keeping my hands warm
My battery life has changed drastically, I'm get down to 40% after about 2 hrs of use and 3 hrs standby. This is beta 1 so this type of behavior is to be expected, battery life should get better as the beta progresses.
I did an OTA update, which is usually the kiss of death for me with betas, but it's been running fine. I'm kind of shocked, actually.
Photos was on a massive 50% battery usage and only 2 minutes screen time when I woke up this morning, which was pretty funny. Seems a lot better now the scanning has finished.
Battery life definitely poor, phone was on 14% by 4pm, usually it's still up around 50% at that time. Not to be unexpected, though.
Going to keep low power mode on all day tomorrow and see how it fairs.

For a first beta of a x.0 update, it's about how I'd expect.
But I can tough it out with a Mophie case.
By the way, my iPad just autocorrected "Mophie" to "smoothie"

Mine was down to 23% battery after 7hr30min standby with 5hrs usage which I hadn't been using that long so it must have been doing background tasks. I'm on a 6S Plus and updated OTA.
Yup - I agree considering it's just dropped another 2% after sending around 6 messages in WhatsApp.
Considering just saving myself the pain and restoring iOS9.3 now.
My Apple Watch battery is also taking a bit of a hammering. Down to 52%.
It actually is a high priority because Apple has to improve the battery throughout the beta process. It just shouldn't surprise anyone.
That's a much more eloquent way of describing what I was trying to say. Thanks.
Internally, power consumption and performance are on the radar, but those issues take longer to fix.
