Last week, Samsung started providing the new OneUI 6.1 update for the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5. However, users quickly started reporting some issues with it, especially regarding the battery.
This update focused on the company's new AI features, which are now starting to reach more users. However, it appears that users are now also reporting that their device's autonomy has been severely compromised.
Users a report That after installing One UI 6.1, their devices were negatively affected in terms of autonomy, becoming much less than before.
Considering that the only change made was the software installation, the issue is directly related to this. But the concrete origin remains unknown.
So far, Samsung has not yet officially confirmed the issue, although reports have begun to appear widely in the company's support forums. Samsung usually fixes these types of issues in future updates, so, with that in mind, it's possible that the company will quickly patch this in future updates.
For users who have not yet updated their devices, and do not want the reported issues to appear, it is best to wait a little longer before continuing the task. Although access to some AI functions will be lost during this phase, it must be analyzed whether this compensates for the loss of autonomy caused by this error.
