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!
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..

Sleep score is for any Apple Watch model supported.

Hypertension and sleep apnoea only for series 9 or higher, Apple Watch Ultra 2 or 3.
