diminished battery power with update (Z5 Premium/dual)

Good things doesn't last forever.  

I was very excited to see the latest update with stamina mode but now I'm regretting it.  I'm not a heavy user at all and used to get by 2-3 days easily without charing.  After the update....there is no juice left on the phone! I have no other choice but charge the phone every day.  

Please PleasePlease give us a proper update, not just sloppy poop!

I did. This is what I saw after tapping the battery icon:

With farther tapping on the "70%"

My bad, I was checking on my Z5 Premium not the Z5, they have different updates, with the latest update it doesn't display the network coverage, how long the WiFi was on, Display on, phone idle/on.

I too am experiencing these power issues. Have taken screenshots, my usage has remained constant yet time between charges has dropped from 36 to 9 hours. Please help.

There's nothing wrong with your phone, as you can see you have poor network coverage, the WiFi was on most of the time as well as the phone was awake.

Good spot, WiFi should not have been active as I was at work and not connected, will check again tomorrow.

9 hours life is not what I would call normal, since upgrade the degradation in what I round call normal is worrying.

Since the WiFi and phone remained on the whole time then that will be the reason for it to last fewer hours.
