I have a really strange problem with my new Retina MacBook 12 inch, I updated to the beta the day it came outa, and experienced almost no issues except for a few graphical glitches. The strange thing is what happened with my battery life, the first days battery was perfect and it lasted as usual when I was only web browsing in safari with 50% screen brightness and as usual battery lasted around 9 hours which is consistent with what the OS X time estimate told me.

The strange thing is that on my last two charge cycles have lasted much less, like have the time, and now when in 100% battery, the time estimate shows me 5 hours and 30 minutes which is really strange as the only change or update performed was the one to iTunes which I haven't even opened.

Can this be related to the beta? May there be something wrong with my battery?

Thanks
