Am I the only one with this problem? Everyone is saying that One UI 8 is very good update but I regret it now... On One UI 7 my s25 had around 7h sot but now its only 5h... Am I the only one?
Thanks.

Galaxy phones have an adaptive battery feature that uses machine learning to optimize battery consumption based on your usage.

After a major software update, this feature resets and needs to relearn your usage patterns. You may notice diminished battery life for a week or so while this process takes place.

As for "regretting the update," updates are not optional. You can delay updating for a time, but eventually your phone will automatically update. You agree to this in the TOS when you first set up the phone.

Have you followed the best practices
after an update guide? Clearing device
cache via recovery mode in particular.

You can also download Good Guardians to re-optimize your apps via app booster (something you should definitely do after a major update). Memory Guardian may be helpful as well. Battery Guardian
also offers several options to extend your device's battery life.

Hope this helps!

Personally, my battery life took a pretty significant hit from UI6 > UI7, but has VASTLY improved since UI8, after the initial "relearning" period for the adaptive battery.

Yes I am experiencing battery not charging and when it does I can count only to have it on stand by for 4 hours before it's drained.
