On 11.1 beta few days already. Only significant issue I noted battery drain in use is greater than usual vs 10.3 but still acceptable to me. Standby drain is still good

Hi, do you guys faced very slow charging issue? after updated to ios11.2, my iPhone 6 Plus charged ridiculously slow. I'm using 3rd party cable and I almost can't use my power bank because of it won't charge.

Did Apple just disable 3rd party cable for ios 11.2? I tried with original cable (from a friend) and it can be charged as usual.

No such problems on both my iPad mini and iPhone 8+
I am using a Remax cable

Thanks for the update. As of now, still no any abnormal battery drain/bugs?

Is that good? I tot 0-1% better? 🙊

It is worse than before. But I can still accept as in use the ip8+ battery is great. The additional 3 to 4% doesn't really affect me. The ip8 is my secondary phone and even when used fully the battery still had 30 to 40% left by 10pm.

My ip8+ on 11.2.2 last night battery drain overnight ( over 8 hours) had improved to 2%. It was averaging 3 to 4% previously. As recommended by forumer attw, I did a reset of the phone first before going to bed

Ip8+ : Firmware 11.2.2 is erratic in standby battery drain. Was getting 3-4% first 2 days, 2% the next and horror last night 6%!!
Only significant negative of this firmware
Hope subsequent update will improve it
Gone are the days of 0-1% drain !!

It isn't for me too especially the ip8+ is just a secondary phone. My main phone is Note FE

Whyy iPhone 8+ is your secondary phone. Mind share some of your experience of Note FE vs ip8+?
*
I had used all the iphone series except ip5s, ipX and yet remain unconvinced iPhones is suitable for me
Gamers would love it but I don’t do any gaming on my phones or tablets
I do find Android flexibility an advantage for me
Necessity to use iTunes most of time to manage files is a big turn off
I had yet to find a good iphone app to match Android browser, tweeter, newsfeed, mail : I had tried most popular ones but end up disappointed
Gone are the days iphone can claim superiority in smoothness. Most high end Androids can match if not even better
I had posted before why I find Android S more suitable but I got back lash from iphone users
So I will refrain from it
Anyway I had always had both with me at any time

Thanks bro for sharing whatever thoughts you have with your iPhone. Sadly that you find iPhone 8+ is not convincingly good for you. Hopefully one day Apple may satisfy you and make iPhone is the only main device you using at all time smile.gif

Main reason why I still continue to follow and buy all latest models. IpX was a turn off simply because of its smaller display vs ip8+. Many said I could be too old ( age 62) already with poor eyes to view a smaller display?!

You meant 11.2.5 I believe?

No prompt because 11.2.5 b7 is already the release version. Build 15D60.

Yes typo error 11.2.5

Horrifying ! 11.3 beta on my ip8+ battery drain last night over 8 hours was a unbelievable 11% !! Both my wifi/LTE was on as always and all background app refresh selected
11.2.5 beta 7 was averaging 1 to 4% generally. Only once I hit 1 %

Thanks for sharing, buddy.

Phew, dodged a bullet there. Will wait until 11.3 beta 5 before I reinstall my beta profile.

You mean you can remove the profile to have beta downloads ? May I know how can I do that ?

Ip8+ on 11.3 beta: Battery drain last night ( 8 hours) with both wifi/LTE on but with batch refresh turned off was still a high 7%
Gone are the days of 0-1% drain as in 11.1.1 and before
I still feel battery efficiency had dropped after 11.1.1
In use was quite similar as previous.

Ip8+ : My drain overnight on 11.3b was greatly improved last night to 2% vs 7% previously. Everything remains the same without any tinkering
