    I had to give up, I can't use the phone if the battery drains this fast.

    I just noticed that about the battery as well. It was 95% when I went to bed, and at 15% when I got up. This is with no usage from me.

    Although not nice, at least that confirms it's not just me and my phone.

    I went back to WP 8.1, each WP 10 Build has had something to make it a no go for me.

    After going through every setting, I found the issue for why the battery was draining so fast on my phone at least.

    Bluetooth and NFC are turned on by default in this build. Turning them off helped quite a bit.

    @Brink, if this is a test phone, do you have or could you install an app to show the discharge speed? For instance the app Battery shows that; the free version has ads but they are not too disturbing:

    When installed it shows the discharge speed:

    Would be good to know the impact of disabling those NFC and Bluetooth, what kind of discharge speeds you have when phone is idle.

    Turning those off helped mine quite a bit, but I do still have Wi-Fi turned on though.

    I just installed the Battery app, and will let it sit with it for a bit to get a more accurate discharge rate and such. Afterwards, I'll post back a pic of it.

    Thanks in advance.

    For the record, my extremely high discharge rates were similar both on Lumia 925 and 930.

    It's currently giving me a 3.18% per hour discharge rate. Before, I could watch the battery level percentage counting down. LOL

    Lol! Kind of like watching the gas gage on those gas guzzlers we used to drive to see how fast we were going.

    How stable is the rest of the build? I'm chomping at the bits to upgrade.

    I'm actually quite surprised how stable 10149 is so far.
