Surprisingly 11.1 works smoothly and responsive in clean-up iphone 5s.
Not checking on battery life yet.
Not sure if it is luck or exception to norm.

Anyone has 11.1 on iphone 6 plus? How ia battery life?

On 10.3.3 i am quite happy, can get 5 to 6 hours non stop browsing. Sometimes a bit laggy.
Most of my apps not updated to 11.1 compatible. Kind of freeze the responsiveness and speed if hold all updates

11.1 on iphone 5s give me some confidence to upgrade....

I don’t find any improvement with the battery consumption on my iPhone 6s Plus. Gone were the days of solid battery consumption.

So a clean-up or a Hardware reset would be a better choice after upgrading to 11.1?

also, if you want to save battery, never set display brightness higher than 50%.

indoors i set at 33%. outdoors 50%.

What’s your screen on time and percentages?

My X on 11.2 Developer Beta 1 is giving me better battery life than my i7

Left home 1110hrs with 100%, playing pokemon go 60% and listening to Spotify on my AirPods 40% and the rest on standby and forums, now at 1530hrs left 50%. Screen on time throughout around 50%.

Please share the article, all batteries need to be calibrated. Plus it is quite safe if the percentage doesn’t fall below 10% and I calibarate only once in a couple of months. Not much stress there.

Also, I only use my phone from 80%-30% in order to keep usage at half-cycles. I’ve tried and tested this method on my almost 3-year old iPhone 6 Plus and the battery is going strong (about 77%).

For almost 3 years, it is pretty good.

whats the correct way to calibrate the battery?

Step By Step Battery Calibration

The following process is what I consider to be the gold standard of iPhone battery calibration. For some, it might not be possible to follow all of these steps. If you are an on-call professional or hopelessly addicted to your iPhone, you might not be able to turn off your iPhone overnight or even for a few hours. At the bare minimum, you need to drain the battery until the device shuts off, charge your iPhone to 100%, and reset it by holding down the sleep/wake and home buttons until you see the Apple logo.

1. Use your iPhone until it shuts off automatically. If it is near 0% battery life and you want to drain it faster, turn on the flashlight, turn up screen brightness all the way and play a video, preferably streaming from the Internet.

2. Let your iPhone sit overnight to drain the battery further.

3. Plug your iPhone in and wait for it to power up. Make sure to use the charger supplied by Apple or one that runs at the same wattage and amperage.

4. Hold down the sleep/wake button and swipe “slide to power off”.

5. Let your iPhone charge for at least 5 hours. The charge progress indicator is not displayed while your iPhone is turned off.

6. With the charging cable still connected, press the sleep/wake button for about a second to start up your iPhone.

7. When the iPhone has booted up, hold down the sleep/wake and home buttons until you see the Apple logo.

8. When your iPhone is back online, remove the charging cable.
