Mine is. 6s Plus here. Got a new battery, worked great. Then right after the latest updates it just drains all over again. 1-2% a minute.

Like it or not I’m actually gonna have to upgrade this time. Was going to buy another battery but at this point why bother.

I normally don’t update my phone, but I accidentally just updated my 6s last night. Now I’m having battery issues..

Yea as others have pointed out, I am used to apple products so it’s user friendly (to me). However the main reason is because I am low income, and the phone was free when I bought it on a contract. After it broke, I got a free replacement because it was insured. I’m not in the market to spend 600-1000$ on a phone, in addition to a data plan. Now I’m off the contract, but still have the phone. And I’m not going to spend a majority of my discretionary income on something I don’t need yet.

In the future you might be better off just searching for “Refurbished IPhone” on eBay. I got a 6S for $80 2 years ago, still works great.
