iPhone 16 pro battery draining fast

I will also add my iPhone 16 pro runs very hot as others have said. Just driving with Apple Maps the other day the phone got so hot it went into Lock Screen because of overheating. This never happened on my iPhone 14 Pro. There is definitely an issue with these phones. Just charging or doing normal functions the phone gets very hot to the touch.

I was used iPhone 11 for 4 years.Yesterday I changed16 pro .

16 pro is battery draining so fast. What should I do ? And can I go app showroom again?

first time I’ve experienced in all my iphones that it drains so fast even if idle and not in use. I may understand that it can still use some energy even if not in use but this one is crazy. I slept 230am with my battery still at 23%. I woke up at 8am and my phone is already dead. When i looked at the battery stats, i found out it was already drained at around 7am. I turned of most of my apps with background refresh and only left the find my on. No apple intelligence too. This is crazy. I came from 15 pro max but now im so regretting upgrading to 16 pro even with no compelling features to upgrade. I only wanted a smaller lighter phone that's why i upgraded to 16pro. Now seriously thinking of switching to android for the first time. Ive been an iphone user since iphone 5 and upgrading almost every year. Disappointing! Apple should do something about this asap. Your products are not cheap and this is unacceptable.

My iphone also drain battery to quickly

so bad

Don’t wait - I reported to Apple at 3 weeks as - was tired of calling and getting remote help- agreed for Genius Bar appt today. They couldn’t fix it. Then they couldn’t replace it either as it was > 30 days ! Great. It needs repair but Apple can’t repair it!!! That means I am done. So, if you are <30 days - return the phone .

I got my phone on Monday 30th September (delivered at nearly 9pm) and it took me until the following day to transfer everything from my 14 Pro Max, so I didn't start using it properly until Tuesday 1st October. For 2 days, I experienced this issue (excessive battery drain) and I became particularly annoyed because my phone was seemingly permanently attached to a charger and the battery percentage wasn't going up. As of last night I was considering sending it back as other posts on here suggested that Apple support was reporting no issues with the phones even though almost everyone was experiencing the same fault.

I did notice that there is a software update available - and although it is just 18.0 by all accounts this update is just for new iPhone 16's (all variances). It says it's a security update but once installed, my battery life is significantly better - to the extent that at nearly 11.30am, it's at 91% and I've used it for work calls; listening to an audio book for 30 minutes and playing some games since 6.30am when I took it off a normal overnight charge.

Maybe it was the update or maybe something else (although I didn't do or change anything else in my normal phone usage/routine) but the battery drain issue seems to have been resolved.

Thank you for sharing that link! I do think that it’s just not right that disabling Siri be a solution for a 16 pro phone, especially when Apple intelligence has just been launched and something that they’re promoting. The 16 pro phone should be well equipped out of the box to perform well with Apple intelligence, and yet… so disappointing…

iPhone 16 pro battery draining fast

I am experiencing battery from day one 1% battery drains in just 4 mins while using it if i don't use my phone still the battery will drain by 2% its really disappointing. I hope it should get fixed as soon as possible

Bought just now and battery draining within 4 hours. Horrible first time experience. Please fix this.

Will monitor for 2 days and if it’s not working then return and get any 14 or 15 pros

A fix better come for this...and fast, or this will be the last iPhone I buy. I came from a 14 Pro and this battery is significantly worse. Unacceptable.

Apparently our phones are not switching to low power cores when idling, that’s what i heard, Apple has been saying they are fixing but we still sitting with the same issue for months

Same here, ip16 pro battery draining like ****. Did this problem get resolved now on?

My iPhone 16 pro battery is draining so fast even I’m not using it and if use the camera for some minutes it really gets so hot
