My iPhone 5c is running really slow, has battery drain, and is freezing up constantly in phone, voicemail, text.... The battery went almost completely dead yesterday with little use.
Is anyone else having these issues?
I am so tired of having to push the home and power buttons to restart it, just to have it restart and still be slow.
Hopefully there will be an update patch for this update soon!!!!
iPhone 5c, iOS 10.0.2
I am not having any issues with my 5. I suspect that you got a corrupted update or coincidentally developed a bad battery.
Please check this article for suggestions, particularly turning off Background App Refresh.

Also try downloading the app Battery Life which is available for free from the App Store. Test the battery with it and if defective, schedule an appointment at an Apple store for possible replacement.
If the above does not help try a System Restore. First backup your device using iTunes. Also import your photos to your computer and copy all important data if possible. Try restoring from backup first and testing it. If it does not help, you may have to restore as New and reconfigure from scratch as the backup could be corrupted. For this reason it is important to have your photos and data saved separately from the backup. Here are the steps for a Restore:
