yea i had hopes for v20c fixing the drain after v20a and v20b, but it only fixed the standby i think. drain while usage was still horrible
after a similar experience with Samsung's OTA for the galaxy SIII from one generation of android to another, I'm beginning to get wary of long term support from all these companies.
I mean they technically do support updates to newer android versions but if they're going to half-ass the software development and ruin stuff like battery, i'd rather stick to the older but more reliable android version.
I was out of the office yesterday, just checking my email, using Whatsapp and a bit of FB Messenger app on 4G. I unplugged my phone from the charger at 8am and by 12pm it had already dropped to about 60 percent, brightness level 25%. The usage drain after I had updated to MM is ridiculous!
On Wifi the battery drain is a bit more stable, but it seems like MM and 4G make quite the difficult pairing...
