iOS17 - Battery Drain Worse Than Recent Beta (lemmy.world)

Has anyone else seen a dramatic drop in battery life after updating to the final release of iOS 17?

My 12 Pro was doing fine on the last few beta releases and the battery life has tanked in the last week or so. I’m not doing anything different, so I wanted to see if other beta users saw the same change after updating.

Isn’t this the same with every major iOS release? The OS needs to rebuild its caches, and that tends to impact on battery life, for a time, and then everything goes back to normal…

My phone feels about the same but watchOS 10 wrecked my Apple Watch. I used to end the day at 30-40% and now it’s barely hanging on by 7pm

Maybe I'm entirely wrong: isn't this the forced obsolescence that Apple is famous for? If it isn't, could someone explain to me why?

Not at all trying to be obtuse, but this is exactly what is meant by "forced obsolescence".
