Battery drain after One UI 6.1 update S23 Ultra

[czanek]

I'm experiencing a huge change in battery behaviour in my S23 Ultra after the One UI 6.1 update!

It's terrible! The battery life was excellent before the update, now - the phone barely survives a day, I have to charge it up during a day, it never happened before.

This has to be related to the update. I hope Samsung will fix this ASAP as this really cripples the phone!

If the fix won't happen, and some rumors turn out to be true (Samsung trying to push users to get a new gen phone) it'll be my last Samsung phone! I've paid so much money for the highest model only to have my battery life cut almost in half by a software update one year after! Insane.

Have you done it yet...? Really curious...(from EU and rollout just started today)

Sorry, false flag, my battery drain was caused by the Reddit app. Deleted it and now the battery drain is back to just being shitty as it was before. LOL

Same issue here.  Samsung S23 ultra before update had almost 2 days of life before the AI update of 6.1 now I have to charge it half way through the day.  Still waiting for a fix as of September. Created account just to post this. Thank you

Today, the major update that introdocues OneUI 6.1.1 features has been rolled out internationally. A week ago it has been released for the S24 series and many people said that battery life has improved. I'm curious to see if there are any improvements.

Don't you do it! You might regret it!

3x per day?! that's absurd!

That was because of the Reddit app. I have uninstalled and now its back to normalish (still crappy). Also the updates from August and September seem to have improved the battery life.

So to everyone here, 

I opened up a better business buro complaint, it didn't end up going anywhere, it was assigned to a standard tech support when which tried to get me to go through debugging again. 

But... If enough reports are opened I think it's 1000, it automatically gets reviewed for a class action lawsuit. 

So to everyone in this forum please open up a case.
