It looks like I lost about a dozen miles of range when I charge to 80% assure this update. So, back to a ~310-312 mile full range. Haven't charged to 100% though. Anyone has this issue?

I have never gotten the 5% increase in range that was promised. I was hoping this update would do that but nope.
Can be added to the list updated. Received the notification yesterday late afternoon and installed it about 1/2 hr before the car was set to start charging. Install completed and car charged. 270 at 90%. I've noticed the 90% range has slowly been decreasing over the months and haven't rebalanced in a while so will try to do that soon and see how it shakes out.
I did notice the screen looked bright when I drove it this morning. We'll be taking the car tonight so interested to see how the Auto setting looks at night.

Might be my imagination but auto steer seems better on this update. There is a side street that used to confuse autopilot a little bit because of no right lane line. Autopilot would see the side street and would veer a tiny bit towards the side street before straightening out again. Nothing dangerous but noticeable. Now, autopilot goes perfectly straight.

I have a mid-range and my range a few months ago was 264 and now its 255. It can't be degradation at only 6 months old. My previous Model S only degraded 2 miles over a 3 year period.
It is funny, but I have exactly the same numbers for my Mid-Range (264 max, now 255). 6 months, 5k miles.

What a coincidence. Hopefully a future update will correct this.

They may be playing with the displayed numbers. Maybe
they're exploring ways to best preserve battery life. There's
no direct way that I know of to see how much charge is really
on the system/battery at any displayed charge level. The
whole idea of reading charge as "miles", or even as "%" is
only a rough indicator. The battery hasn't lost or gained cells.
And you never get all the mileage displayed under real driving
conditions. I'd say don't obsess about it, maybe try a full
charge to reset, let things shake out over time and updates.

After updating to 2019.20.2.1 had same auto brightness dim screen and had to adjust manually.
Also, Bluetooth was disconnected, even though I was able to unlock and enter the car. iPhone 6s plus with most recent update.
BTW, why would you need to reboot your car every time that you get an update? Doesn’t the car have to after an install anyway? It cannot be driven during an update.

I had the se issue with autopilot. Support advised me to restart the computer (with the 2 wheel buttons) and let it sit about an hour without driving it. It worked, I hope it works for you too. Was caused by sentry mode. Also, before you reset, remove the flash drive u use for sentry and switch off sentry mode.
I disabled sentry and still get the issue of cameras going out. The cameras actually go in and out several times during my 20 minute commute, so it doesn't seem related to sentry mode.
Nope, still out most of the time. Pops back on for a few minutes here-and-there. Service looked at the logs, they are planning to replace triple camera.

My LR AWD model 3 used to charge to 278 at 80%. Seems with 2019.20.2.1 I’m at 270 now. I have a little over 11,000 miles and have owned it for 8 months. Hopefully this is a bug and will be fixed when I receive the new update.
