My iPad Air M2 battery is draining fast

Is there anybody here having battery issues with their iPad Air m2 (iPad gen 6)? It seems my battery drains so quick. Streaming for 2 hours and battery from 80% to 20% . This is supposed to last 8-10 hours of streaming.


Hope you guys can help

I also recently purchased the iPad Air M2 and I mostly use it only for goodnotes with my pencil pro and the battery drains ridiculously fast! I really hope there’s a fix to it

That’s interesting, after a few days of buying mine I returned it and got it replaced due to touch screen issues. The first device had a good battery but the replacement has an insane battery, it started draining really fast and it’s annoying, if it’s not fixed with an update I’m considering returning it. One thing I think is important to mention, on the replacement unit the date of first use was not the same day this unit was delivered to me, the date listed is June 24th and the day I first used it was October 15th. If you can check it on your unit it might help me out.

I own a 2022 iPad Pro M2 purchased new in 2023. It must be the M2 chip which may be the first M series chip used in an iPad. My battery drains in 2 hours of watching YouTube car videos. My Apple MacBook Air M2 battery lasts many more hours than the iPad. I was about to replace my wife's 2019 iPad Air 3rd generation with a new iPad Air. I am going to wait awhile until I am sure "m" chip is not a problem in other iPads.
