Battery issues with last update?

Galaxy S22+

My battery has been drainign fast since the last update.
Anyone else having the same issue.
I could go an hour or more with just a 1% drop in battery life.
Now it drains almost 10% with no usage

Same here. Battery life horrible now.

Well, now that you brought it up...

I just checked GSam battery monitor & my s22 Ultra's battery life has taken a big hit. I guess I'll clear the cache partition & see if that helps.

Every update seems to diminish battery life. It's almost like they want us to buy new phones.

I cleared the cache partition & after a full charge, I used 20% of my battery in 12 hours. I was also connected by Bluetooth to my watch that whole time.

We will see how the next few days go!

me too. i notice my battery is down to 20-30% at the end of the day now when it used to be 40-50%

I haven't seen much of a difference on mine.

Clearing my cache partition really helped improve the battery after the August update.

Haven't noticed any decrease in battery life (at least not yet) on the recent September update!

clearing cache partition by going into save mode, correct?

are you implying the battery was a drain until after you cleared the cache partition?

Cache Partition in Android Recovery.

I'm saying that after the update, my battery showed more drain than usual. Updates usually reduce battery life until the update & device settle in together. That usually takes a few days. However, things were not improving for me. I cleared the cache partition thru recovery & things improved.

I always wipe the cache partition on major updates, but not usually on monthly updates. This time, it was needed, but as all things, YMMV.

ok thanks, i will wipe cache partition and monitor the battery consumption afterward.

** update **
i haven't really noticed much improvement after wipe cache partition.
