Since I did the update to Marshmallow on my Priv, the battery life is not as good, it runs hot when using applications and the touch controls to launch apps and even unlock the phone has a significant lag. Has anyone else experienced this regardless of the carrier?
 
I know you said regardless of carrier, BUT there is a known issue with the T-Mobile app that causes the device to both run hot and drain battery. The solution is to remove the T-Mobile app from your device. (You can set up a homepage link to the T-Mobile mobile site in it's place) There may be other apps that are causing the over heating also. Anything the persistently checks the internet for info may cause this.
 
It does run hotter mine always does the cool down feature cuz it heats up more.

And battery is a bit worse. Remember doze only works when you don't touch your phone

I had troubles like that after one of the monthly security updates. I finally did a factory reset, and all has been good since then. I strongly advise you try it.
 
It's a big update. I second the suggestion to do a factory reset. That always seems to help in cases like these.
 
There is a new update for beta and it fixes heat and battery big time. Aff057

The MM update worked fine for me. The phone gets better and better.

After the June update and security patch my phone turned into a heating element. Seriously, and goes to Cool mode in my pocket locked up..finally did factory reset last night. Today, battery at 66 % since on at 5:00 am. Sad part. I forgot to back up password keeper...:>(

It is common for phone to run hot after major update. After a while this should go away.
 
Yes, a factory reset is a pain, but effective. Also, toggle off your adaptive brightness. The update toggled mine back on and it eats the battery.
