I updated to one UI7 last night and now my battery while on idle is draining extremely fast. 

 
Had I known this would be an issue I would have never updated to this crappy software. 
 
This is a major issue and like I said I can notice the extreme battery drain while the phone is idle.
 
If Samsung doesn't fix this issue I will be filing a claim as to me this is now a defective item that they caused.

Mine got much better after turning off ¾ of the apps running in the background. Definitely the system setup to run as it pleases.

I was an long time Iphone user and I decided to switch over to S24U last year and it was the best decision ever. Phone capabilities is unimaginable to even describe. Since April 2025 phone update, my phone battery is drained out faster than normal. Charging my phone from 1 time throughout the day to 2/3 in a day. 

I believe they most be a glitch in the update software. But they need to fix it fast before I go back to IPhone. 😔😔

Ive had my samsung galaxy s24 for about a year, its genuinely an incredible phone. All though recently my battery life has significantly decreased i used to get around 16-14 hours of battery life and now its decreasing by the day, does one ui 7 have anything to do with this??

I had the beta version for months and had no issues with my battery life or glitches in general, but recently when I installed the official ui 7 it has killed my battery life. I have a galaxy s24 for around a year, no reason the battery life should drop from 16-12 hours to 12-7hours its terrible.

That's wild! This has become the main issue most are having. I haven't experienced this issue, but hopefully, they will resolve it.
