[Q] Why is battery so bad after update

[Throb1231]

I'm on Lollipop and everything was fine. After this update,I can't get 8 hours out of the battery. It looks like the phone is always awake, but I can tell you it's been in my pocket for most of the day. The real kicker is that at 74% battery it's telling me I have 4 hours left

Is anyone else seeing this. Everyone I've heard is getting better battry. Mine is significantly worse

Did that earlier. No help. Phone is just sitting on counter and lost 20% in an hour and is hot. Guess it's factory reset time. Ugh.

I uninstalled play store updates last night and rebooted. this is what happened overnight. waaay better.

something with play services is messed up.
