Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow in Google Nexus 6P

Marshmallow 6.0.1 Android version in Google Nexus 6p Ruined,
Anyone who's been on Android for as long as I have (five years), knows that Android updates can break things. But usually these are just minor annoyances; little things you can afford to wait on for the next update to fix it.

That's not the case for Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, which got pushed out to Nexus owners about two weeks ago. It hit my personal Nexus 6P on Dec. 16—I know the exact date because that was the day I lost 50 percent battery in less than an hour by doing nothing more than listening to Audible with the screen off.
It's a fairly staggering downturn for the Editors' Choice-winning Nexus 6P, which clocked 9 hours, 59 minutes during PCMag's battery rundown test (screen brightness to max and stream fullscreen video over LTE). Android 6.0 Marshmallow similarly received high marks from us due to its battery life improvements, particularly Android Doze, which puts your phone into a deep sleep state when it's untouched for a period of time.
Android 6.0.1 appears to have broken that as well. Charging my phone to 100 percent before going to sleep at night normally resulted in a battery drain of 2 or 3 percent at most. After the 6.0.1 update, I would wake up with a 20 percent battery drain. By the time I arrived at the office in the morning, I was down to nearly 50 percent, from completely regular usage on the train and a screen on-time of a half hour.
I'm not the only one who has been suffering from this. A significant number of users who upgrade report serious problems with rapid battery drain, LTE connectivity issues, touch input drops, Doze failing to work, and Wi-Fi.
We spotted the same touch input drops on the Google Pixel C. Users of the Nexus 5X, meanwhile, have also reported issues with battery life, suggesting that this is not a device-specific problem.
Unusual battery drain is sadly all too common on Android. Due to the nature of the OS, a single misbehaving app can absolutely destroy your battery by keeping your phone awake, using up data, or some other weirdness that only Google's Android team truly understands (and possibly not even them).
Taking that into account, I went through the full troubleshooting steps, uninstalling Audible, Facebook , and several other apps that I thought might be causing wakelocks or preventing the phone from going into Doze. I installed a battery monitor and did a full factory reset—a solution that normally works and is recommended after big Android updates.
Nothing helped. As far as I could tell, my phone and its battery were truly ruined. It was at this point I sent the Nexus 6P back to Google.

Could rooting and flashing back to an old build of Marshmallow have solved my problem? Yes, probably, but I should not have to do that. The Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X are both clearly targeted at general consumers at this point, not just Android enthusiasts. You can see advertisements for the Nexus 6P in regular public settings like the bus stop and even on TV.
The Pixel C, Nexus 6P, and Nexus 5X are all clearly part of Google's consumer-facing lineup, not just a proof of concept or developer devices. Updates can't and shouldn't break things. And most of all they shouldn't require you to unlock the boot-loader and flash a custom recovery because that's just not what an average consumer will do.
