Have not updated my S7 yet, nor my iPhone to 17. Keep hearing battery horror stories

Should I stay put or are the 10.1 for Apple Watch battery issues fixed?

    iPhone 15 Pro Max & a Series 7 watch. I reset my watch. Nothing. Still had crazy battery drain. Dead in under 2 hours. All third party apps removed. I then downloaded the public beta 10.2 update almost 2 weeks ago I believe and my watch is back to its normal self. I toggled off the beta update option in settings after as I didn’t want that to be regular thing.

      I was one of the people here saying “what battery drain” and now after updating to the fixed update it’s zapping my battery like crazy.

    I was having slightly more battery drain with all versions of 10 before 10.1.1. Since installing it late last week, my watch is now back to as close to the same as it was with watchOS 9 to be indistinguishable.

    Only a small amount of users were affected by the problem. And that was fixed for them with 10.1.1.

    Didn’t have any battery issues on 10.1 or 10.1.1 so there is no clear answer. AWU2.

    I thought that I was the only one who hasn’t updated, nice to know that I’m not alone.

    I haven’t notice any battery difference over the past week or so and just updated whenever it asks me too.
