Good morning,

I was playing the Birdcage this morning on my iphone 7 and the battery dropped from 70-60 percent in roughly 18 minutes?

Is this normal?? This is my company iPhone.

Also what is everyone getting for battery life with 11.4 / 11.4.1?
 
iOS 11.4 and 11.4.1 have battery related bugs. My dad's iPhone SE (just a few months old with a 100% fresh battery) goes from 100% to 50% in 1 hr regular usage with 10 hours standby. My mom's iPhone 7 is just a bit better.

My iPhone X suffered on 11.4 too, but not as severely. iOS 12 Beta 3 is much better but not perfect.
 
My x drops 10 percent in an hour of screen on Time on 12 beta 3...

11.4 and 11.4.1 can be noticeably different for some that have had some more battery issues with 11.4 in particular.
 
How much does it drain when just texting pretty consitently for 30-45 minutes?

Sorry I could not tell you as I do not think I have ever texted constantly for 30-45 minutes. Even with all my customers and employees communications, all on text, do I think I have texted that period of time.

Going back and looking I send about 75-100 texts a day but only a few at a time as required. I do not have the luxury of waiting for any length of time before waiting so I never have a large number of texts waiting for a response.

How is your battery on your X I have been texting most of the morning, using facebook and snapchatting with nearly 3 hours use I am down to 66.
 
My phone has gone from usable for a full day to draining from 100% down to 1% in three hours while it just sits on the counter.

Seems about normal for 3 hrs of usage I guess.
