One Ui 6.1 s23 Ultra battery drain

[gideeup6]

Why is my battery draining at least 25% faster on my s23 Ultra after updating to one ui 6.1? Don't even start with that ***** about wiping the partition cache as that has done nothing. Samsung fix this now! I will move to an entirely different brand over this.

New updates always have some bugs that are addressed in the new monthly updates with time. As with the one UI major update 6.1 which is basically an Ai update given to the flagship phones out of courtesy, these are definitely going to compromise some of the mobile features. So, wait for the next update to get it fixed!

I'm mad as hell, too about this. And samsung isn't even admitting their fault, neither have they realeased a patch, nor is there an option to roll back to a previos version. Since the update, my s23 ultra is draining the battery super fast, the phone gets hot af and is charging extremely slow. This was definitely my last samsung product and with me they've lost a very big customer because i used a lot of their products over the years. In addition, i am working for a huge service provider and we will now stop using samsung products there, too. Hope this will hurt Samsung enough so that they will start being a quality company again.

Same here. It's ruined my battery and in turn my phone

As a fully paid up membee of the ' Ihate UI6 club' i' like to say the new update 6.1 has solidified that thought... the new AI malarky maybe all bells and whistles but what good is that if half the normal functions dont operate as they should..ok slight exageration but you get my drift.. I know tech moves at a lightning pace these days but surely its not asking to much to make sure its bug free before releasing it.. my S23 ultra cost 1200 odd ££
What a waste of money that buy turned out to be..
Sunday morning rant over 👍

How long did the battery last before and how long does it last now after the update?

Used to charge every 2 days now it's every half day, when plugged in and using maps in the car the battery stays the same and doesn't gain extra charge

I had the same problem I shut down the phone let it cool down, and started it up again once full charged everything was working as normal.

Well, everyone these days expects updates yesterday. This is the result of rushed updates to satiate the hunger of routinely updated software minutes after it becomes official. Personally though, I've never had any update, major or minor, on any of my Samsung phones cause any significant changes (detrimental) in operation as described here. That's coming from the OG Galaxy S, Note 3, S8+, Note 10+ 5G, S20 Ultra, S21 Ultra, S22 Ultra, S23 Ultra and S24 Ultra. I find most updates may run a cycle worse, but that's simply due to apps updating in the background or me being more actively curious about the new features or settings.

My phone would get down to the 40 to 30% range on an average day, now it would be at 0 if i didn't charge it at mid day.
