Same for my 7 Plus...I went in to Settings and turned a bunch of Location Services crap OFF. This seems to have helped maintain battery life for me.

This does not seem to be a problem for everyone, My wife got her new phone and use outlook, but her company uses 365 so the mail server is in the cloud and so far no problems. Not sure what are the specifics of those who are having it issues.

Funny, I read that article earlier and assumed it didn't apply. Thanks.

I will also second (or third) that increased battery drainage appears to be an issue with iOS 11. I noticed it on my 6 plus. However, my wife mentioned that her 6s was doing the same thing. Not horrendous overall. However, it appears to be draining much more overnight when idle than it did before the update.

Yeah everyone is reporting battery drain on each and every upgrade of iOS and the interesting point, eventual the battery life returns when people stop playing with the phone learning how to use the new feature and showing it off to friends who are debating upgrading.

There has never been any evidence of the iOS reducing battery time under normal usage after an upgrade.

Agreed, after tampering with some background settings, my battery life is seemingly better than before the upgrade.

On a tangent, tampering with settings in iOS appears to be less dangerous than tampering with settings in Bimmercode.

The new update was running well at first....Then shit started going bad....

Ringtone volume goes from maximum to minimum rapidly if I try changing it in settings. Losing WiFi connectivity more frequently. Random freezing. Going from vertical to horizontal view sometimes messes with the display and icons become misplaced. Random lag. Etc

Yeah. Thanks for the feedback. However, the battery drain I experienced was not due to show and tell with friends and family. Rather, it has been, as I thought I mentioned, as the phone has sat idle overnight.

I would add the following update, however. I had recently added the Outlook app to my phone. At this point, I think it’s possible that that app was doing far too many fetches and activities in the background. After removing it, battery life seems much improved. Of course, during the same time, iOS 11.0.2 has been applied. So, perhaps that has helped resolved some initial issues with the rollout of the new iOS.

slightly unrelated but is anyone fed up with how greedy and unethical the current US cellphone providers are? If you even discount the bs charges, massive monthly plan costs, they have now all transistioned to some bullshit installment option on these phones to further screw people... whats even funnier, is that at&t and verizon will not sell you an unlocked phone even if you pay full cash price equal to apple's full price... wtf lol

I have a 6s+ as my company phone... Runs OK, but I put just the bare minimum amount of apps on it, especially if the cheapos only got the lowest storage tier and I don't want to jam-pack the sucker. The battery life does seem a bit shorter though; if I don't have significant calls, I only had to charge it every 3-4 days but now it seems like every 2 days.

Also I never had an issue with Exchange even on the first day, but then again I used the Outlook app instead of Mail so that I can also have global address book, especially since I work for a conglomerate and manage users with 7 different email domains.

Also 11.0.3 just got released, so I don't know if that closes some bad open doors and opens others.
