Now that we’ve had 24 hours to test iOS 13 public beta, I’m curious to see what others users have been experiencing in terms of battery life. For me, I have not noticed any difference in battery from 12.3.1 on an iPhone 8. Has anyone experienced significantly better or worse battery life after updating?

Surprised so many votes for, “Same”.

In my experience with Beta software, it’s invariably Worse, but this one is far from disastrous.

A few app crashes aside, it’s proving to be fairly usable at this stage of the Beta, at least on this XR anyway.

One has to also consider the extra time we will all be spending on our devices too with iOS 13 being brand new and shiny!

EDIT: For context, at the time of this post there were 4 votes for Same and only my vote for Worse.
