Hey everyone, I noticed that ever since the latest Android system update rolled out on my Pixel 5, the battery life has taken a nosedive. Before the update, I could easily get through a full day with moderate use, but now it barely lasts until late afternoon. I’ve checked for any rogue apps running in the background, and everything seems normal. I also made sure to disable location services and background data for some apps, but the battery drain persists.

Has anyone else experienced significant battery issues after updating their Android device? I’m curious if this is a common problem with this particular update or if it’s something specific to my phone. I’m running Android 13 with the latest security patch installed. If anyone has tips on how to diagnose what’s causing the battery to drain so quickly or recommended workarounds, I’d love to hear them. Thanks!
