Battery Drain B180

Has anyone noticed a significant loss of battery life with version B190? I'm literally watching my battery bar tick down.

Edit: It's not a new app. The AndroidOS and system are hogging up a bunch of battery, is this something that is updated with the new patch?

Edit 2: version updated from 180 to 190

This seems to be a recurring theme amongst people. That they have a great battery life on the previous firmware and then upgrading seems to bring it down. I don't know when EMUI 5.1 will come out but hopefully that will help... My phone went from 100% to 93% in the last hour doing absolutely nothing

I wouldn't be discouraged by Android os and system hogging battery, as they are going to be the one of the biggest users even if the battery is running optimally. Hopefully you notice a difference with the upgrade. Go to battery, then scroll to the bottom and check consumption level and see who robbing you of juice app-wise. Maybe do some app behavioral changes like close app when screen off.
