I've noticed my battery life has been crap since the update on Monday. I haven't changed anything or added any apps. Anyone else getting this?

Mine is not a good as it was before update.

My Pixel 3 battery life has been subpar for a while now. Can't last a whole day for me. Admittedly I am a heavy phone user.

Might be tempted to switch to a 3a or 3a XL if the battery gets any worse.
 
Chiming in on my battery life experience as well. Something is definitely wrong as I dropped from 60% to 30% in a couple of hours with minimal usage.
 
I got the "security update" today, and applied it before I left the house. When my phone rebooted, it said I was at 99% battery (I was at 100% before restarting to install). I drove to work, and was down to 96% when I got there, so I plugged back in for about 45 minutes. I looked and it still says 96%. I turned the screen off and on, and on the bottom of the lock screen it says "fully charged". But my display still only says 96%. I restarted the phone, and same thing, still at 96.
 
I'm really obsessed with battery care. I charge many times a day at my desk, car and phone. Usually when I get down to 50 % and never more than 80%. After one year I'm still at or above 100%

I took my battery down to zero, and fully charged it, and it went back to 100, so hopefully it was just a glitch. I'm going to look into this 45/80 charging philosophy too.
