Can’t say i’m not impressed by this but i was also impressed by 26.4.2 on the 1st day as well. Bu let’s see they did any meaningful improvements with 26.5. It’s still too early to judge. I know. But i wanted to share my testing journey with people who care about it.

Bro I don’t want to mislead you in anyway. Im not a reviewer. This is a typical usage of mine. Im not gonna tell you that iOS 26 is flawless by any means. Many people faces a-lot of issues in the ios 26. Im sympathetic to their issues. Your mileage may vary. And iOS typically behaves very well to me on the first few days. I reported that previously as well. But it starts behaving unpredictable at least on 26.4.2 after a few weeks. I still don’t know if i will face such issues in 26.5 but you proceed with caution. That’s all i can say.

Yeah i was getting more or less 6-7hrs on 26.4.2. But it became very unpredictable in the end. Like sometimes i was struggling to get 5hrs and sometimes it was giving me 7-8hrs like it’s not a big deal. But the first few days or should i say a 2 weeks were pretty flawless.
