CTOnews.com, April 5 (Xinhua)-- Apple released an update to iOS 16.4 last week, which brings some new features to iPhone users, but also a problem: faster battery consumption.

According to tests by YouTube channel iAppleBytes, the iOS version 16.4 reduces the battery life of several iPhone models compared with previous versions. The tests involved models such as iPhone 13, iPhone 12, iPhone 11, iPhone XR and iPhone 8, and found that their battery test scores all dropped, some even by double digits. For example, the battery score of the iPhone 13 is down 11% and the iPhone 12 is down 12%.

In addition to shrinking battery life, some iPhone users reported that the weather app could not load data after updating to iOS 16.4, and some users had to re-enter their Wi-Fi password.

It is reported that Apple will soon launch the iOS 16.4.1 version, which may solve the above problems such as battery life. Did CTOnews.com 's buddies encounter the problem of shrinking battery life after the update? You might as well tell us in the comments section.
