Same. My battery life has improved as well from the initial Nougat update.

I'm still chewing through battery but I just have a charger handy.

I'm convinced battery life is not going to improve for us. It's been bad since the 7.0 update and they have the Pixel phones now. I've accepted the fact that I got yet another device I thought was going to have good battery life, only to go to garbage after a major update.

Drop back to latest 6.0. I'm tempted.

Just had a random reboot.



Seriously, this is suppose to be the final dp before being released to the public?

Why do I feel like Google may be messing with the software on the Nexus to get people to buy the pixel?

Then again this is a developer preview, but if the issues with the dp translate to final build then I'm confident in saying that may be the case.

On top of poor battery life on the developer preview, I was getting poor Wi-Fi speeds again. About half of what it was on 7.0. I went back to the latest 7.0.

I'm only seeing faster battery drain. I updated to DP2 and lost mobile data. Icon showed LTE but signal checker said no service. Had to reboot.
