Anybody feel like the battery life on the Note 2 has been reduced after the update? Anybody have a trip or trick to fix?

no, mine increased. last time i looked, i was at about 26 hrs and 27% with 3 hrs of screen on time. i plugged phone in at 19% but didnt see where i was at. im finally getting to the point after leaving my thunderbolt where i dont need to worry about battery life.

Mine seems better after the update. Install Gsam Battery Monitor (free version) from the Play Store to find out what is eating your battery. I initially installed it to find out what was causing excessive battery drain on my phone the first few days I had it, and kept the app because it's so good.

After the update my battery life was significantly reduced also.
I went into Maps settings and the location reporting was turned on and constantly updating my location. Turned that off and now back to the awesomeness battery life again.

That's what was causing my battery drain the first few days of owning my phone. For some reason, the update didn't turn that setting back on for my phone.

No issues here, battery runs fine after update. No real noticeable difference, just awesome batter life!
