- According to reports, Android 16 Beta 2.1 is causing major battery drain for some users
- The comments published in Reddit complain about the need to charge up to twice a day
- Android 16 is expected to be launched at some point between April and June
Android 16 will launch some time between April and June of this year, already measure that we approach that window, Google continues to implement beta versions of its latest mobile operating system.
However, these beta versions are still pre -launch constructions designed to try and try new functions, and as such they can have unfortunate side effects, in fact, a recent Android beta 16 seems to be affecting the hardest user batteries of the hardest user than expected.
As Android Authority reports, users with Android 16 Beta 2.1 installed have reported a serious impact on battery life as a result of the update.
A Reddit thread initiated by the official U/AndroidBetaprogram account in the sub -edit R/Android_Beta contains multiple reports of this battery problem.
User U/Jordanl171 said: “The battery life in 2.1 is much worse than 2.0 [on the] Pixel 9 Pro ”.
Others complained about unpecified cargo problems, while a user now eliminated said they were “forced to charge twice a day.”
Naturally, this is not the exchange rate you want to see with a newer version of any operating system, but I am not particularly concerned about this battery error.
The beta versions of the operating systems will surely have some annoying problems or even the experience from time to time: it is part of the process, and much better for users and developers that these problems come to light before the full version.
While Google follows the scope of your community through platforms such as Reddit and other social networks, I am quite sure that this problem will be solved before launch, and probably even in a posterior beta construction.
Although I have not seen me affected by this battery drain problem, I do not have a Google Pixel phone and at this time you need one to access Android 16 betas, I do not think this remains a red light for anyone who wants to update to Android 16 in the launch.
However, it could be worth omitting this particular construction. Telephone batteries are consumable components, with a maximum useful life that are broken over over time, so having to recharge can more frequently have an impact on the longevity of your device.
In any case, I am still excited that Android 16 reaches the best Android phones at the end of this year. Let us know what you want to see from the new Android update in the comments below.
