wow the battery health really sucks in ios18. the home & lock screen eating the battery like nobody business.

after updating, charging via magsafe also heat up the phone.

anyone facing this kind of issue?

The always on display has always contributed to major battery consumption since the 14 Pro days.

If you don’t use sleep mode overnight, battery drain is typically 7-10% overnight for the always on display

For battery life, just turn off the always on display.

That bad ah? Is your mobile reception strong? Battery drain more when they keep finding good mobile coverage.

Im using esim plus my main sim card

This 18.0.1 is worse update ever
Keyboard and typing is lag, phone heats up fast and battery drop every 1% less than 2 mins on wifi and minor usage (ig)

To be honest, i didn't face the issue you faced.

plug in your phone to a charger and leave it idle for a few hours. looks like background tasks not finished.

Screen is as unresponsive as before but im not facing the other issues you did.

No such issue on mine. In fact, the touchscreen prob on ios18 has resolve on mine.

How was the battery like for your case?

I think iOS 18.0.1 fixed something with MLO.
I’m able to get the 16 pro max to be registered as MLO device on the router and I’m getting speed as fast as my 6G band. Seems good.

Plan: 1Gbps MR

Your test not accurate leh, bottleneck by your isp…

No choice leh, will test again with 2.5/5Gbps!
The bottleneck part is limited to my 1Gbps but what I’m trying to say is the MLO support!!!!

I don even bother by mlo, to me it’s a gimmick now as our ippm 16 hardware is limiting it. Also there are pros separating out your wifi ssid rather than bundling them for for mlo sake… IMO.

Of course I know what I’m doing haha, I have all separated SSID, with another serving as MLO.

huh? y i use aod no sleep mode battery drain only 2%

but battery life other than tt no really big as i expected comin from android

battery with normal use still can only last 1day ++ tt means if go overseas need to charge everynight

How you separate all your ssid while having another serving as mlo? Mlo concept is to bundle all the spectrums together to cater for single ssid. I don know what’s your actual setup like, but sure sounds messy to me… either go full mlo or separate ssid…

Also mlo can’t support legacy wifi devices that only security via wpa 2 and below which is also the reason I can’t use mlo now as my full sonos setup, certain speaker model can’t support higher wifi security.

Asus have this option where you can have your main network either combined or separated, so for my case, I separated my SSID to 4. 2.4, 5G1, 5G2, 6G.

I created another MLO network with 2.4/5/6 as 1 MLO.

So i have 4 SSID with 1 combined separate MLO for testing, again, have to emphasize, for testing only, cause I got feeling that iOS 18.0.1 might have resolved MLO issue so went to try again last night.

I can't go full MLO as I got legacy devices, only my iPhone 16 Pro Max, P9XL and XM14 supports MLO.

Just now u didn’t mention its for testing on your router (not endpoint) so assuming mlo is already commissioned for good. anyway u got the gist… end of the day ippm 16 ain’t the right device to test on mlo, that’s what I’m trying to put across to everyone (in case some read your post and expectation not met).

Just share my findings only, a lot technical users here of course I know cons and pros.
