Ehh.. I’m disappointed of intentional “laziness” of Apple.. What’s the point of bigger battery (we’ve ever had in iPhone) when we end up every year with poor battery management… I was reading this topic on the start of iOS 26 beta. On First release battery was awaful after a few updates it was getting better and better . When it was getting close to keynote iOS 26 battery hunger was increasing. Someone will say You shouldn’t update … I agree but some features needed new system like sleep score..Honestly, I don’t see a big difference on day two of using it either.
Also, I’m still riding the public release for iOS 26.0, not beta 1 of 26.1. What cool new features are we getting in 26.1? If you’ve already jumped on the beta and want to chat about battery life, please share your thoughts!
