Anyone else's battery performance very poor after the recent One UI7 update?

I like the new features but battery is draining so quick compared to pre update.

Samsung --- any answers??

S24 Ultra

Hi! Welcome to the samsung members community!

This has been posted about a good 50 times- plenty of answers on the forums for tips, and suggested solutions. Have a gander

Yeah mine too.

A recent thread I participated in here, this one on S23 Ultra and relevant https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-s23-series/my-s23u-is-heating-and-draining-the-battery-af...

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.

Why won't new members search first?

So frustrating

First Turn Auto Blocker Off

Using the Samsung Phone App (not the Google one)

Dial *#9900# then scroll down to battery stats reset. Click then restart your phone.

I thought I was the only one with this problem, but as soon as I started typing 'Samsung update'... 'battery drain' came up. Before the update, I had almost two full days of battery life with casual use including taking photos, YT, audio books, social networks... and always-on display almost always on. Now I can see the battery percentage drops rapidly, and it won't last a full day with always-on display off! What can I do to fix this!?!
