Users 'accuse' Android 16 of incredibly battery drain

According to TechRadar , Google's latest version of the Android 16 mobile operating system is expected to be officially launched around the middle of this year. Previously, Google continuously released beta versions for users to test and give feedback. However, the recent Android 16 2.1 beta has caused a lot of trouble for users when encountering a serious battery drain error.

Android 16 beta has serious battery drain bug

According to Android Authority , many users have reported unusually fast battery drain after installing beta 2.1.

A Reddit thread about the bug has gotten a lot of attention. One user, jordanl171, said his Pixel 9 Pro's battery life was "significantly worse" after updating to 2.1. Others have also complained of unexplained charging issues. One user even said he had to charge his phone twice a day.

Despite the annoyance, experts say the battery drain bug in the Android 16 beta is not a cause for concern. Beta versions are inherently experimental and unfinished, so bugs are inevitable. The purpose of beta releases is to detect and fix bugs before the official launch.

If you’re running beta 2.1 and are experiencing battery drain issues, be patient and wait for a fix. Also, be aware that charging your phone more frequently can impact battery life, as batteries have a limited lifespan.

Despite the battery drain issue in the beta version, Android 16 is still expected to bring many new features and valuable improvements to Android devices. Users can completely expect a complete and stable version of Android 16 when it is officially launched.
