Anyone else experiencing a deplete in battery life? Hoping it would take a few days to settle in on the new os but was getting much better battery life on iOS 10

Using my iPhone 7 Plus, I got great battery life running iOS 11, but I’m in the process of giving it to my youngest son. Right now, I’m using my brand new iPhone 8, but I can’t say anything in regard to it battery life yet.

Haven’t had an issue with battery life on iOS 11. Have you tried rebooting your device or resetting network settings to see if that helps?

The battery life on my 7 Plus running iOS 11 seemed normal.
No issues at all here.

You need to wait Popkurn. After update you can have worse battery life due to cleaning and indexing you system perform. It should last no longer than couple days.

I said I was hoping it would take only a couple of days to settle in. It’s been more than that. My battery isn’t draining just not as good life as I was getting on iOS 10.

I’ve done a reboot but haven’t reset network settings yet. Guess I can try that

According to posts on Google+, battery life has been horrible for most. Including my iPhone 7’s (x3). My daughter is begging for the 8 now because of it. Lol

iOS 11.0.1 is out, hopefully it’ll fix the problem!

I got the incremental update and tbh battery has settled down a bit. Still lasts all day for me.

I’m not finding iOS 11 too bad for battery life on my 7.

This was today’s usage running 11.1 beta 2...
