In early February, Samsung released an update for the new Galaxy S21 range, an update that included the security patch for the month of February and whose firmware number was G99x0ZHU1AUAE. If you installed this update, your new smartphone may be had problems with the battery.
A large number of users state that after installing the security update for the month of February on their Galaxy S21, battery life has started to decrease drastically. Although most of the problems are found in the terminals with the Exynos processor, everything indicates that it is a software problem.
The problem is related to device connectivity, since the same does not happen in airplane mode. This problem is only affecting the S21 and S21 + models and it seems that at the moment the S21 Ultra is not being affected by the update, even making more generous use of the 120 Hz screen.
Samsung knows
Samsung claims that it is aware of this problem, according to the guys at Tek.no and is working on a patch to fix this problem. At the moment, we do not know how long it will take the company to launch it, since this problem is not affected by all the S21 and S21 + models that have reached the market.
In this way, it is likely that the company March security patch is expected, or launch a small patch that only and exclusively solves this problem with the wireless connectivity of the device identified as the problem of high battery consumption.
