It's an awesome feature - although I'm wondering what it's battery impact will be with the screen lighting up often when it accidentally lights up.

This feature seems to kill my battery.

I've been using iOS 10 since dev beta 1 and haven't run across any battery drain issues from raise to wake. The accelerometer is pretty accurate on knowing how angled your phone is and it needs to be pretty vertical before lighting up.

I wish the screen would stay on for just a little longer after I raise to wake it. If I have notifications, I can't read them fast enough to see if I want to respond or ignore. I have to then open it up or press the power/wake button. Just a minor thing that I'm sure I'll get used to.

Raise to Wake + Rest to Unlock is such a good experience as a user: no Home button press needed at all!
