You can easily just set a black background on the always-on display. Just set a color instead of a wallpaper, it’s available in the customization options that appear when you tap and hold the Lock Screen.
I am genuinely hoping they fix it because you are getting an expensive phone to have battery drain issues is pretty ridiculous. iPhone 14 isn't the only one facing battery drain issues my family members that have the 13 pro and max are seeing this too. Keep in mind they got them a couple months ago before I did; I recently got the 14 pro and have drain issues. Some are saying the update might have affected the battery performance but who knows with these tech giants
@@Truth_Seeker1 Both valid points. My specific glitch-like behaviour was when my phone would be in my bag, face against (but not flat - as that would turn off AOD) the side wall of the bag and the AOD brightness was definitely at the 2000nit peak - utterly blinding in a dark bag - as im reaching into the bag. Proximity sensor/ Ambient Light sensors not working as designed? Simple fix was turn off AOD and have had great battery since. I think there are just some unusual residual bugs with the AOD in very specific edge cases more than anything. Also the AOD is very distracting whether people choose to admit it or not - also most people are conditioned to not place devices face down on tables so it’s a de-facto subconscious desk productivity /attention killer. I’m sure many android users choose to turn this off too even though their AODs are much more barebones usually - generally greyscale b/w.
I came here today due to aggressive battery drain on my 14 pro. I am 16.0.2. I just turned off always on and dark mode as I need the battery life to last due to medical especially next few weeks. My 13 pro lasted longer so I’m very disappointed in battery issues. (I’ve had iPhones since the beginning!) Thank you for the tips!
@@suleimank871 How’s the battery life on the ios 16.1.2? And do u use low power mode as a heavy user? I’m considering buying the pro but I’m worried about the battery life
@@edan02 day 3 of using iPhone 14 pro, running on iOS 16.3.1. Not on AOD, turned of background refresh for most of the apps except navigation and payment apps. (Not on low power mode, reduce motion or frame rate) Battery drains about 8-10% per hour on active screen. 2% on my sleep overnight (about 6 hours with Wi-Fi, mobile data, Bluetooth off)
I upgraded from the 11 pro to 14 pro max a month ago, because I couldn't handle the battery drainage anymore. But the battery life of the 14pro max is not as I expected. I'm not on my phone all the time really, pretty basic user, but I still have to charge the phone daily. It is a slight improvement in days where I shoot a lot of videos outside, but it's just disappointing because of the days with average usage. I'm also pretty disappointed with the screen brightness. When I'm outside I don't see much better than I used on the 11 pro; and when I want to increase brightness it's already on 100%. There are also other issues beside battery and brightness, makes me feel like all these reviewers ain't being honest.
I turn off “always display on” after experiencing battery drain on my first day using 14Pro. I never have battery issues on any of previous iPhone. 14Pro definitely need an update.
I was losing about 7-10% battery every hour, idle. With the new 16.0.2 update I haven’t lost 1% over 3 hours of idle. Funny they didn’t want to admit there was a battery drain fix in there, but I’m certain there was.
I have the always on display “off” for the most part. I turn it on when I feel the need to be glancing at the phone in some situations. Since I went from the iPhone 11 Pro Max to this iPhone 14 pro max, I am in and out of setting more than I ever have been in the past! I miss the 11 pro max battery compared to this phone, but still prefer this phone with the upgrades that it has. Also understanding that this phone still out does the competition’s battery time between charges. Thanks for the great review!
Awesome fixes Michael, my battery drained from 70% too 35% in 2 hours yesterday, changed settings as recommended and hoping to notice a huge change today. Thank you so very much!
WTF I have it a year its battery capacity 100% Its weird when I see people commenting that the battery capacity is dropping. I only use Facebook and Instagram TH-cam etc. Also one thing If a person who plays game on the any iphone for 1hr or 30min or 2hrs or any min or hour every day Iphone will not suit you because your battery will be down. I cannot belive it whenn people are saying the battery capacity is less than 100. If you take care of the Iphone 14 Pro Max it will last for more than 1 year at least because I am using 1 year now.
Agreed on the auto brightness issue. I’ll pull my phone out and it will already be super bright. Second, apple should give us a setting where we can set our max brightness threshold.
Thanks for the video. Actually, I never use the auto brightness feature. I’ve always been told to turn it off and adjust your brightness manually so that you always have control how bright or dim your phone is. Also, you can reduce the whiteness factor in the display settings which will also conserve battery life.
It's just a bug or a hardware issue, nothing to do with always on display or simething else. I bought a 14 pro max simultaneously with a friend, exact same phones, they arrived on the same day. We both have everything enabled, mine draines incredibly slow, I can go 3 days on a charge with normal use (very little video) and my friends phone can't make it through the day. Btw: 16.0.2 did not fix my friends problem.
While you sleep the always on display cuts out after the phone realises it hasn’t been used for a while, so out of them 7 hours maybe 1-2 hours the always on display was active
As a mentioned wanted feature in the video you can actually just have the AOD show your clock and widgets! It’s removes the wallpaper completely and looks really good. You enable this by going to your focus modes and choose options then “Dim Lock Screen” do this for all of your focus modes or just one, either way you get just the clock and your widgets. Looks good as well. Please note though the AOD always turns off completely and automatically when the sleep focus activates.
Apologies… half of the content is just about turning of AOD and the next tip is to switch to low power mode which disables adaptive display (1hz - 120hz feature). I agree to turn off aod but not with switching to low pmode. Turning off background app refresh is good…
I just got the iPhone 14pro and I see my battery going down faster than I expected so I am glad I found you how to fix what I can. Thank you so much. The date is 4/22/23. Don’t know what iOS I have.
Battery drain is really bad and my 14 max was almost dead at the end on the day with not much use. Turned off always on and has 60% left under the same conditions.
The auto brightness was hurting my eyes. I’m coming from the iPhone 11 Pro Max. I had to actually go into accessibility, and display and actually turn on reduce white point. I put it on about 48% and that helped alot.
I've had my Pro for 2 days and it's horrible at power management. Doing about all of the above. We'll see how it goes. Also, as I was making dinner it was sitting idle and when I came back to it it was hot as hell! I've got the 16.0.2 update installed so I hope it's better in .3 or whatever iteration that comes out next. Oh, and I did turn off the always on display the minute I got the phone so that was never the reason for the battery drain for me.

Hi Michael, I have updated all your suggestions, my battery on my iPhone 14 pro has dramatically dropped from the 13 pro. Just had an update which is 16.0.3 so I will see how this goes. Thanks for the video
I've come from 13 base model, I'm very dissapointed with 14 pro battery. Battery % drops even with AOD turned off. I reinstalled software vía Itunes (IPSW) and problem persists. I think all of us have this issue.
@@bertrandyangni9862 Now it has been updated to 16.1.2 does the battery still drain fast and are u a heavy user? I’m considering investing in the pro but I’m worried about the battery life
I haven’t used the always on display and I don’t like haptic keyboard sounds and vibrations. I haven’t noticed extreme brightness either in sunlight or outside at night yet since I haven’t needed to use my phone in those situations. I also didn’t have the camera issue some complained about using Snapchat etc
Faced the same situation bro , my battery went down to 95% in a week . I am so scared now . 😢 well I followed what you advised let’s see the outcomes .
I unplug at 0530 hours. I go to bed around 2200 hours. If my phone can't last that duration, I am not happy. So, at first my iphone 14 pro was only getting about 4 hrs SOT. I turned off AOD and limited my screen to 60 htz. Also turned off background email fetch and app refresh. Now I get 6 to 6.5 hrs SOT. But I don't feel I had to dumb down my brand new iPhone 14 pro, to get the same battery as my iPhone 13 got, with a smaller battery and same settings. And honestly the pro isn't even all that great. I may just pay it off sooner than I wanted to trade in for the 14 plus. Same chip as the 13, lower quality camera too, but the battery should be much better and thats my number 1.
I always had the max models but felt like going for the more pocketable Pro model this time and love this size ....But gotta say I'm rather unhappy with my battery life....Nevertheless love my AOD so it's gonna stay on. BTW putting your phone face down will automatically turn off the display, so that may also be a useful trick when needed.
O have done those things and my 14 pro battery performance remains unsatisfactory. I expected a full day battery life, but actually is a half day battery life.
I'm taking your advice and turning off the always on display. In regards to the aggressive auto brightness, I've found this a problem going back to iPhone 12 Pro Max. So I've been adjusting downward the display brightness for a few years now.
I have applied to return my iPhone 14 pro to the seller, I said battery is draining too fast I can latterly see the battery counting in front of me like 1% each 5m, and it go crazy when I open a camera in Google meet.
Never understood why they made the always on display show the entire screen. Just show me the time and whatever widgets I have on my screen. My 13 PM went 2 days with same usage and had battery power to spare, while the 14 PM barely makes it through 1.5 days. I’m also having lagging issues which seem to creep up daily.
Weird how people are having trouble with battery. Not on my iPhone 14 pro… I charge it to 80-90% every time and it lasts me a whole day… never let it go down 15% tbh.
Extremely disappointed from my iPhone 14 Pro‘s battery life since the last iOS update.It’s currently so bad that it drains more battery when I don’t use the phone than when I actually use it.I have for real tried everything and it doesn’t seem to get better://////
I don’t understand why they market the iPhone 14 Pro as having a 23 hour battery life… But then have all these battery drain issues? Was that number determined with factory settings? Or only after optimizing settings to account for battery drain?
Just bought iphone 14 pro yesterday and this issue makes me disappointed. Updated already in the latest software update but still battery drain fast even its idle.
I just bought my Iphone 14 2 days ago. First day the battery works so efficiently. But after that, I notice that without using my phone it seems like something is wrong because it felt warm when I touch it, and last night before I sleep i charge my phone and unplugged it when its 100% and the today when I woke up my battery only left 65% without turning on the always on display feature. Damn this IOS 16 is killing the battery. What should I do now before I think best to go visit the Apple service centre?
I turned off the AOD since i have a smartwatch AOD doesn't bother me much but I have to say my 14 pro max battery is not up to the mark and is dropping too fast. The 13 Pro Max has the best battery backup.
The battery drain issue is not fixed. And I’m trying it out with turning off the always on display. Let’s see if it does something. Also the brightness isn’t an issue.
Hello just wanted to ask, i have iphone 14 pro max and i noticed that my battery lost 5 of battery overnight even without using and im on sleep mode. Is this normal? Can someone pls enlighten me on this? Coz ive been seeing videos on youtube that iphone 14 pro max really extends up to 1 day but my battery doesnt 😭😩
Background of wallpaper is completely black of whatever subject is in front if the clock when you don’t have the always on display on and you turn the screen off and it looks so bad. Almost like a glitch.
I ve just woke up and lost 14% battery over 8 hours night sleep with no wifi or bluetooth, no AOD or brightness - just sleep focus. On the other hand my old iphone 11 lost just 1% in the pretty similar conditions. Something s wrong here! If I had also AOD on, i think I would have lost additional 8%.
@@roninbushito This is not concerning or unusual. Having the camera open is one of the taxing tasks on a smartphone, up there with gaming. When people want to recalibrate their smartphone battery (draining until the phone shuts itself down, then charging to 100%), the most common method to quickly drain the battery is to max screen brightness and leave the camera app open.
But I haven’t been using my 14 pro max I have all default setting from factory reset and I keep it in my pock pretty much all day. I’m so confuse, still in talk with apple since I’ve had this iPhone from 3 months ago.
No its not the dynamic island. Man with my iPhone at the end of the day had always 40% or sth. But with updating to ios 16 I can't life through a half day. It's definite ios
My AOD is turned off and I can’t make it a full day. I’m on 30% by 2PM my 13 pro max lasted a full day no problem - I don’t consider myself a heavy user and I know it’s not me because my 13 lasted just fine
Thank you sir. I just upgrade to 17.3.1 on my 14Pro. But when charging it shows 100% battery charged. Then I disconnect the charging cable then few minutes later my phone would shut down by itself then when I reboot (with the charging cable connected) it only shows about 11% charged level. So frustrating since I was not having any issues whatsoever before updating to 17.3.1. I hope they'll fix this.
I have the iPhone 14 pro max with always on display on and the haptics on as well and I get up at 4am and go to bed at 10pm and by that time I still have between 40-50% of my battery lift on my iPhone so that about the pro max have a bad battery no and my girlfriend as the 14 pro and she dose not complain about her battery it last her all day so I think it down to how you use your 14 pro or pro max if your battery is not lasting you all day
Thanks for info, I did turn off always display on my phone. This idea made it worse! The IPhone 14 Pro Max has brightness of 12000 nts , I tunes brightness levels down same as 13 pro max. The drain problem was solved tune down brightness levels
I bought the iphone 14 pro. My old iphone is 7 plus. It was good but I use the iphone 7 plus as a work phone. Calls and IMs. I had to replace the batt. But since I use it heavily for work it drains the battery a lot. I turned off the background refresh on my old phone and turned it off on my 14 pro. The phone lasts long for almost 2 days with moderate use.
I got my new phone a week ago. Immediatly turned the AOD off, and I have black mode always, plus I always dim the brightness and use low power mode. I don’t use power banks anymore and the battery on this new phone is worse than my 11 pro that I have had for YEARS. Wtf Apple this is a 2000€ phone ???
I upgraded from iphone 11 to iphone 14 pro max mainly because of battery. But i am not getting the battery i expected based on the reviews. It’s still draining sooo fast 😢really disappointed

But I don't feel I had to dumb down my brand new iPhone 14 pro, to get the same battery as my iPhone 13 got, with a smaller battery and same settings. And honestly the pro isn't even all that great. I may just pay it off sooner than I wanted to trade in for the 14 plus. Same chip as the 13, lower quality camera too, but the battery should be much better and thats my number 1.
I always had the max models but felt like going for the more pocketable Pro model this time and love this size ....But gotta say I'm rather unhappy with my battery life....Nevertheless love my AOD so it's gonna stay on.
BTW putting your phone face down will automatically turn off the display, so that may also be a useful trick when needed.
A charger exists
@@ttdarksy331 I already traded in the pro for the pro max and am really happy with the 2 days plus battery life
O have done those things and my 14 pro battery performance remains unsatisfactory. I expected a full day battery life, but actually is a half day battery life.
I'm taking your advice and turning off the always on display. In regards to the aggressive auto brightness, I've found this a problem going back to iPhone 12 Pro Max. So I've been adjusting downward the display brightness for a few years now.
Got mine on launch day, Turned off always on display within the first hour.
turned off the always on display first day itself when I got iPhone in my hand
I’m on 16.5 and the battery still drains pretty fast
I’m not sure if I should exchange for the 13pro? Any recommendations?
I have applied to return my iPhone 14 pro to the seller, I said battery is draining too fast
I can latterly see the battery counting in front of me like 1% each 5m, and it go crazy when I open a camera in Google meet.
What phone did you get
They added customisation to AOD!
Never understood why they made the always on display show the entire screen. Just show me the time and whatever widgets I have on my screen. My 13 PM went 2 days with same usage and had battery power to spare, while the 14 PM barely makes it through 1.5 days. I’m also having lagging issues which seem to creep up daily.
You’re also having lagging issues daily with your 14 pro max only. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Mine (14 pro) barely makes it to 34 hours compared to when I first purchased it 11 months ago it went at least 2 days.
For the always on display I feel like Apple should just show the time, widget and a very basic version of notifications
Weird how people are having trouble with battery. Not on my iPhone 14 pro… I charge it to 80-90% every time and it lasts me a whole day… never let it go down 15% tbh.
I did all those things and more, I even removed all my widgets and my iPhone 14 pro is still experiencing battery drain.
Same
Is it still a problem with 16.1.2 update
how about displaying the weather on the lockscreen who just wanna look at the time on the screen it’s useless to me
I get 4.5 hrs screen on time on my Pro. This is bullshit
So what you’re telling me is to just keep my 13 Pro Max ?
My phone overheats while using GPS and I have low battery mode and dark mode enabled. It also feels extremely hot when trying to charge.
Hello Lisa, I have the same issue and I just got my phone last week! Not sure what to do!
I’ve done all of these and it’s still terrible. I’m thinking about returning my 14 pro max.
If you don’t want to see your wallpaper with AOD on, just use a plain black wallpaper.
Update 16.1 and I still have battery drain issues goddammit
ios 16.1.2 does the battery still drain fast?
@@edan02 unfortunately yes for me, I think battery fixed will only come in 16.2 which isn’t until mid of the month
@@noblacksuit21 do u use low power mode and have aod off?
@@edan02 aod is turned off. I don’t use low power mode.
@@noblacksuit21 try using it for a day and trust me you’ll find a difference
Extremely disappointed from my iPhone 14 Pro‘s battery life since the last iOS update.It’s currently so bad that it drains more battery when I don’t use the phone than when I actually use it.I have for real tried everything and it doesn’t seem to get better://////
I don’t understand why they market the iPhone 14 Pro as having a 23 hour battery life… But then have all these battery drain issues? Was that number determined with factory settings? Or only after optimizing settings to account for battery drain?
It can last for three days if u dont charge it because I have it and I use it.
Just bought iphone 14 pro yesterday and this issue makes me disappointed. Updated already in the latest software update but still battery drain fast even its idle.
Do u use low power mode and how did it go with 16.1.2 does the battery still drain fast
Mine started draining fast yesterday, 6 hour battery life. it was fine since release date. No settings were changed.
I just bought my Iphone 14 2 days ago. First day the battery works so efficiently. But after that, I notice that without using my phone it seems like something is wrong because it felt warm when I touch it, and last night before I sleep i charge my phone and unplugged it when its 100% and the today when I woke up my battery only left 65% without turning on the always on display feature. Damn this IOS 16 is killing the battery. What should I do now before I think best to go visit the Apple service centre?
any news please? Im considerings getting 14 pro too...
Hey man. Do you live in AB, Canada?
I turned off the AOD since i have a smartwatch AOD doesn't bother me much but I have to say my 14 pro max battery is not up to the mark and is dropping too fast. The 13 Pro Max has the best battery backup.
The battery drain issue is not fixed. And I’m trying it out with turning off the always on display. Let’s see if it does something. Also the brightness isn’t an issue.
Did it fix it
Seems like it’s a little better. I left my house today at 11am with 92%. Now it’s 3pm. Been using my phone for work. And I’m at 74%
Do u use low power mode? also the 16.1.2 update how did it go for u? does the battery still drain fast
Hello just wanted to ask, i have iphone 14 pro max and i noticed that my battery lost 5 of battery overnight even without using and im on sleep mode. Is this normal? Can someone pls enlighten me on this? Coz ive been seeing videos on youtube that iphone 14 pro max really extends up to 1 day but my battery doesnt 😭😩
You are now officially our GO TO TH-camr for tech. Thank you for the work you do. We will continue following. Take care stay safe.
Background of wallpaper is completely black of whatever subject is in front if the clock when you don’t have the always on display on and you turn the screen off and it looks so bad. Almost like a glitch.
Im on 16.3.1 rn with my 14pro and i didnt have any battery drain problems but my battery somehow got so much better
Hi ,,,my new iphone 14plus battery down ready then now how to solve
I ve just woke up and lost 14% battery over 8 hours night sleep with no wifi or bluetooth, no AOD or brightness - just sleep focus.
On the other hand my old iphone 11 lost just 1% in the pretty similar conditions.
Something s wrong here! If I had also AOD on, i think I would have lost additional 8%.
Have you checked the battery usage history in Settings? I noticed Skype using up ~15% in the background overnight on my iPhone 14 Pro.
My camera app was on for some reason and drained 75%-28% in few hrs wtf
@@roninbushito This is not concerning or unusual. Having the camera open is one of the taxing tasks on a smartphone, up there with gaming.
When people want to recalibrate their smartphone battery (draining until the phone shuts itself down, then charging to 100%), the most common method to quickly drain the battery is to max screen brightness and leave the camera app open.
My iPhone 14 pro lost 8% overnight isk I’d that’s normal or bad
Yea my new iPhone 14 pro battery drained fast 🤦♂️
But I haven’t been using my 14 pro max I have all default setting from factory reset and I keep it in my pock pretty much all day. I’m so confuse, still in talk with apple since I’ve had this iPhone from 3 months ago.
Or it something to do related with dynamic island? The battery for my iphone 14pro seems drained to much too. 😑
Congrats you’ve been selected for the giveaway send a Dm....
No its not the dynamic island. Man with my iPhone at the end of the day had always 40% or sth. But with updating to ios 16 I can't life through a half day. It's definite ios
My AOD is turned off and I can’t make it a full day. I’m on 30% by 2PM my 13 pro max lasted a full day no problem - I don’t consider myself a heavy user and I know it’s not me because my 13 lasted just fine
Congrats you’ve been selected for the giveaway send a Dm....
I feel the same Bro. Before ios16 anything was fine. Now I can only survive half of a day with one charge
Excuse me? I want to ask that why my iphone 14 pro max battery increases when I turn it off and on? 🥺
Thanks to your video I immediately went to update to my 14 pro!
Thank you sir. I just upgrade to 17.3.1 on my 14Pro. But when charging it shows 100% battery charged. Then I disconnect the charging cable then few minutes later my phone would shut down by itself then when I reboot (with the charging cable connected) it only shows about 11% charged level. So frustrating since I was not having any issues whatsoever before updating to 17.3.1. I hope they'll fix this.
turned AOD off. coming from Pixel, I was used to turning my phone facedown.
I have the iPhone 14 pro max with always on display on and the haptics on as well and I get up at 4am and go to bed at 10pm and by that time I still have between 40-50% of my battery lift on my iPhone so that about the pro max have a bad battery no and my girlfriend as the 14 pro and she dose not complain about her battery it last her all day so I think it down to how you use your 14 pro or pro max if your battery is not lasting you all day
I left home at 5.30 with 79%, it’s currently 7.34 and I’m already on 55% this can’t be normal????
I got exactly the same experience :((
@@DDArmy ios 16.1.2 does the battery still drain fast or did it get fixed?
I turned off haptic feedback and it made my battery way better
how do u do that
My battery was good the first two days but then I don’t even use it when I’m working and when I see it is in 78%!! After 7 hrs is that normal?
I don’t think AOD is the problem.😊
Thanks for info, I did turn off always display on my phone. This idea made it worse! The IPhone 14 Pro Max has brightness of 12000 nts , I tunes brightness levels down same as 13 pro max. The drain problem was solved tune down brightness levels
The new iOS 16.0.2 didn’t fix any battery draining issues. Hopefully next iOS
bro iphone 14 pro max battery is 4323 mAh and 13 pro max 4,352 mAh apple Scamed us 😥
16.02 fixed battery on my 13PM from 6 hours to 7/30-8 hours battery life.
@@ishanishkc214 bigger mah doesn’t mean better 😂 look at Samsung they have a bigger battery but can’t compete
@@gerralld5211 what are you smoking? My s21 ultra battery was way better than my 13 pro max
@@TheIamdevin not in my experience the s21 is literally the worst battery life in a phone I’ve ever had
Love how the Wifi is: Mom use this one”😂
I bought the iphone 14 pro. My old iphone is 7 plus. It was good but I use the iphone 7 plus as a work phone. Calls and IMs. I had to replace the batt. But since I use it heavily for work it drains the battery a lot. I turned off the background refresh on my old phone and turned it off on my 14 pro. The phone lasts long for almost 2 days with moderate use.
My test showed AOD took 1% battery in 4 hours and in 9 hours it was 6%. 16.02 fixed battery on my 13PM from 6 hours to 7/30-8 hours battery life.
You are incorrect on the battery size difference between the 14pro and 13pro. The 14pro has an increase of 200mah.
I took of always on display and it helps ALOT ,that eats a lot of battery in background
Congrats you’ve been selected for the giveaway send a Dm....
I got my new phone a week ago. Immediatly turned the AOD off, and I have black mode always, plus I always dim the brightness and use low power mode. I don’t use power banks anymore and the battery on this new phone is worse than my 11 pro that I have had for YEARS. Wtf Apple this is a 2000€ phone ???
(I’m on 16.1.2, just downloading 16.2!, hope it helps…)
Same
When I’m not using my 14 pro I put it in low power mode to save battery
Yes, but you shouldn’t need to do all that. That’s the all point.
My 14 pro gets 8 and a half of screen time
The first thing I did when I got the 14pro was turn off the always on display it’s not normal
Mine was dropping 1% in 5 mins and i just updated it to 16.2 now its been more than half hour not even one percent has been dropped
iPhone 14 Pro Max is terrible. So bad I had to return it. Compared to 13 pro max
The AOD in my Samsung, the settings is Tap to Show only. Thats what apple should have.
Im planning to buy iphone14pro but I will just turn it off
Same here. With these reports I'm not gonna buy it
Battery timing in iphone 14 promax was told 27 hours but in actual battery drops very soon.
Very disappointing
I upgraded from iphone 11 to iphone 14 pro max mainly because of battery. But i am not getting the battery i expected based on the reviews. It’s still draining sooo fast 😢really disappointed
And now ?
Come on now..the battery went from 4352 to 4323..that’s less than 1%
Turned always display off. Turned display brightness down
I haven’t had this issue.
