Yeah, seems to be a feature, or 'enhancement'. I'm not a big bluetooth user, I only use it if I'm using bluetooth headphones, or speakers. When I'm done, I shut it off. When I went to bed with about 50-60% and woke up to 1%, my phone had automatically tethered to my CPAP machine. No telling what they were doing together, all night.

Updates prior to the release of newer versions of the iPhone all cause this. They want you to buy a new phone.

No battery problems but the new quick menu sucks. Can't even change audio output selections (I.e quickly go from Bluetooth heads phone to speaker)

I'm hitting "Low Power Mode" more frequently after 11 update.

If they wanted you to buy a new phone they wouldn't support so many older models. Apple has a pretty good history in this space of supporting older models. The 5s is still supported on iOS 11 and it came out 4 years ago. This is more on the manufacturers than Google but the new Oreo release of Android doesn't support some phones that are just a year old LINK /

After what a week with this new update, I can add myself to the quicker battery drainage list. It does not seem to bad but it definitely drains at a quicker rate with my normal usage habits.

ETA: Probably just me, but for some reason it seems like it takes a little longer to charge since the update. Anyone else?
