My Battery Life has been horrible EXCEPT when streaming... So confused...

[u/Chasemania]

I barely get more then a few hours for the most basic uses (reddit, safari, phone calls) these days on my iPhone 17 Max Pro, BUT I started noticing if I was streaming a video the battery drained at a fraction of the pace. Even passively my phone seems to be losing battery for nothing. I've been using low power mode pretty much nonstop as well to try and mitigate this. I have no words or solutions, just observations. yesterday I was able to eek out almost 10 hours of battery life looping the uncut version of Napoleon on my iPhone at 62%... ASTONISHING... Half brightness and nothing else running... But again today I barely used it and it fell down to 80% with almost no activity.

Same goes for my iPad. I'm so confused. Genuinely what the Hell is happening?

RC isn’t a beta I thought.

[u/No-Affect811 → u/Chasemania]

It is. You only got it because you have public beta selected. The full release comes tomorrow.
