iOS 10.1 Battery drain

No difference.

More likely that they are not bothered given that 10.2 doesnt even attempt to acknowledge and fix it.

If thats the strategy they are using to "help" upgrade then they are using the wrong strategy. I have been using iphones since iphones 3s and I buy a new phone every year as me and my wife uses iphones. (I usually buy the non S models whilst my wife gets the S models). And the reason for my loyalty is:

1) Truly innovative products with features 2 generations ahead of its competition.

2) Reliable products even after 2 years. (even with 2-3 ios updates, the phones still feels snappy when operated and works error free)

3) iPhones do command a relatively good used prices which subsidizes the upgrades.

Currently, the iPhones being sold is on par with its competitors (with some features copying the competition like notification bars and being water resistant), not reliable since ios 10.1 and because of the battery issue, no one wants to buy used iphones with battery issues. Hence, the urge to change is at its peak... for me atleast.

I have the same phone as you do. Even with a brand new battery installed last Friday my phone barely makes it through the day I still can't believe this firmware ***** power out of the battery combined with the ultra low performing batteries that Apple has been putting in their device not a good combination.

I think you are not the only one feeling this way. The most frustrating part is when you call Apple tech support and they are so arrogant and adamant that there is nothing wrong with their firmware that would cause premature battery failure. The non ownership of the problem on Apple's behalf is what really frustrates me. What about "we acknowledge that there is an issue and we are working hard on a fix for our customers?" I guess integrity and honesty definitely don't supersede the ultra high level of arrogance at the almighty Apple company.

Yea.. the quest to beat quarterly earnings year on year has taken precedence over customer experience and, innovative and reliable products.

Totally agree. The least they could do is acknowledge the problem. That way, we will at least know they will be doing something. Now there are so many just like me who are contemplating to switching to alternatives,

Hi, i also experiencing a horrible battry drain, currently on Iphone 6s plus ios 10.1.1-10.2.

Before i go to sleep, the battery was at 100%, but when i woke up 7 hours later, it left with only 15% power.

It never happen before on ios 10.1, but since i upgrade to ios 10.1.1 then 10.2 last night, the problem are still there. I already try several guide to settle this problem (i.e hard reset, clean install, turn icloud off, etc), but none of them are success. Is this realy the hardware problem or more to software problem? because the battery replacement will cost me arround US$ 200 in Indonesia.

Thank you

My new Iphone 7 on ios 10.2 tuns off at 46%. What are you doing apple???

I can confirm that on 10.2, low usage for about 3 hours I am down to less than 50%

Mine is one of the iPhone 6s models due to have its battery replaced.

There is a FB group now created.

Adrian.

I have the same issue as you, i own a iPhone 6s Plus. Does it related to the battery issue arises earlier? This is so weird. However when i log into the link given to check my serial number whether i entitle for a battery, it reflects that mine is not in the list.

Can you share the fb group here?

Apple knows what's going on. You can be assured of that. If they acknowledge how big of a problem they have publicly they will have millions of customers running into Apple stores, sales will fall, their stock price would be impacted and confidence levels would drop in the products. Its risk management. My guess is they will quietly slip in a software fix soon and this will go away. The only public response has been some 6S problems and we all know its other models as well.

I find it absolutely disgusting that with a 73 page (so far) thread with reports from 4S owners all the way up to iPhone 7 users, that Apple has still not acknowledged this widespread issue for anyone but a handful of 6S phones.

It appears that the latest 10.2 software does nothing to fix the problem.

Also it is equally disgusting that the Tech Press is practically ignoring the wider issue.

Apple used to pride itself on its customer service and the fact its products, "Just Work".

Right now they're behaving like a huge Ostrich burying their head in the sand and hoping the problem goes away.

I hope this silence doesn't mean they are doing nothing about it.

Unfortunately until the Tech Press start asking some probing questions of Apple as any self respecting journalist / publication should do, the paying customer is left in the dark.

That's why you need to make sure everyone you know with the problem posts on this thread.

It's not as if they need a separate forum login to do so. It's their Apple ID, so it's easy.

To the OP - is there any way you can edit the title to remove the reference to iOS 10.1 now that we know 10.2 also has the same issue please?

Perhaps you could mention, "Early Shutdown" or something.

Have you check your logs under the Diagnose menu?

I have a LowBatteryLog entry for every time my phone goes off.

I have an iPhone 6s running 10.2 and my serial number is not in the Apple Program for replacement. I'm experiencing this issue since all iOS 10 betas to iOS 10.2.

This is one example from last night, when I had a shutdown at 16%. After that, I've tried to power on the phone again and after some trial and error the phone went back with 16% battery left (as described by several users in this thread).

Wow, well spotted, I had a look but because I am hardly using my phone and I pretty much have it connected to a charger all the time, I cannot see any of those entries on mine recently.

There are some for 17th November, so before I or Apple knew about the issue basically.

Apple should have these logs as I got them to remotely diagnose and also went into my reseller to diagnose as well.

I will try to use it substantially tomorrow and see whether anything happens.

Adrian.
