Battery drain issue with Garmin Fenix 8

By ShadowVibe354 · ISSUE · About Garmin Fenix 8

Has anyone else noticed severe battery drain with Garmin Fenix 8 recently? Mine went from lasting all day to barely making it past noon. I haven't changed my usage patterns. Wondering if a recent firmware update caused this regression.
