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.

Everyone's battery is 40% of what it was.
Also the phone gets so hot you can't hold it anymore this is a real problem I wish they would get it right one time

Definitely confident that location is a contributor to this unbelievable battery drain that we've all complained about. I can say that I've noticed that dark mode constantly staying on dramatically impacts that as well. I turned it on instead of scheduling, and my battery is on a more controlled/normal usage decline. I've been pretty good about going into device care & optimizing when needed, closing apps, and even smart wifi to turn off until I'm in range of a certain network. Has anyone else found tricks around battery management since the new update?

Before the new ui 7 update I would only have to charge my phone once a day but now I need to charge it 2-3 times! Please fix this issue, I'll rather have better battery life before any of these new features

Ya I updated last week and ever since my 24 Ultra has drastic drain. Could go half a day and it would go down to like 75 percent. Now by lunch I'm down to 50 percent
