How's is battery life compared to beta 3?

It is the same, if not better. Not as bad as beta 1 + love the low battery mode as it nearly gets me 6 hours of usage on a single charge.

----

I have noticed that the Maps are slightly sluggish in performance compared to beta 3 and provided the feedback to Apple on the same.

I was wondering... Does the feature "power saving mode" is only for the iphone ?
I'm using ios 9 beta 4 on my ipad air and i can't seem to find the toggle.

Thanks.

Am I the only one experiencing faster battery drain on this beta?

My battery dies really fast. Like massively. We're talking only 1 app open, half brightness, no Wi-Fi or BT enabled, background updates disabled...

Dying at about 1% every 1-2 minutes.

No way we do 3 more betas. 1 definitely and possibly 2. No more.

Agreed 6 betas seems to be the norm. There's going to be another 3 week period between betas.

Last year beta 5 was the final. As buggy as beta 4 is, I'm hoping it goes to 6 betas. I know many here are going to say beta 4 is solid but it's not. It's no where near ready for release.

I think beta 3 was better.

I think battery life is shocking in this beta and it is better than beta 3 on my device. Certainly not releasable in its current state.

I don't think beta 4 is anywhere near being ready to be released. I won't be surprised if there was a 6th or even 7th.

I disagree. Beta 4, at least on my iPhone 6 Plus, has been the most stable. Beta 3 was great, but this one is even greater in my experience, and I've been using iOS 9 as my daily driver on my 'primary' device since beta 2.
