Hello!
Is anyone else noticing huge battery drain after updating their S3 to Jellybean?
Any ideas or tips on how to curb the drain?
Thanks!

I'm having the same problem. On GB I could go a full day with moderate usage. After the update to ICS, I only get 4-5 hours of battery life before its dead.
You think after such a delay in rolling out ICS out they would have these problems fixed!

I got the same issue... Seems to drain three times faster (not exaggerating)...

Meowmix, did you let your purchaser know about the battery issues you were having before you sold them the S3?

Hi
You might want to check your battery graph to see whats wrong.
You can access this by: Settings -> Battery
It would show what takes up the most battery.
Some features might have reenabled once you updated.
Features like Smart Stay (which costantly uses the front facing camera to track if your eye is looking at the screen) might be one.
You can turn this off at Display
Others like features that take up battery could be in Motion in Settings.
Also you might want to make Power Saving Mode on.
