This update makes my phone drain it's battery every minute every minute, before it used to last 1 or 2 days active use, now it doesn't even last an hour, the ui all of it sucks, Samsung really needs to re think there terrible design, they need to fire all people that created this horrid trashy ui

1. Battery drains super quick

2. Won't charge above 70% for the last 1 hr without battery protection on

24 Ultra. Since the new update my phone has started to overheat. Im only using GPS, and it's cooler in my car than the outside. The update also changed my pull-down screen, I hate it. Now, it's hard to edit photos because it keeps dragging it down my app/ notification bar. It was never an issue before. Ideally, there would be a way to REVERT THE PROGRAM BACK. Whatever "improvements" that were made are actually detrimental to not only the functionality but the life of my phone.

You can change the pull-down menu panel back to how it was in the panel settings. As far as the battery drain goes, I'm having the same problem.1747269389958.jpg

Same, since last update battery drains quickly, running hotter than normal. I have battery saver on but it won't allow me to change screen timeout unless I turn off battery saver. A Tiktok-er helped me fix the pull down view but I don't remember how I did it now. Had to reconfigure my pull down options because everything had moved.

I also noticed my s23 ultra getting super warm since the update despite using it exactly the same way.

Samsung please send a fix to the battery drainage issue from the UI 7 software update this is crazy. 80% battery will not last four hours. Neither will 100% .

That means nothing, I was using Scores by Google a lot yesterday. That is what the Play Services was from.
