I discovered that the display is the main cause of the battery drain in my phone with more than 90%, in my laptop with Windows 10 it is less 50%. Also, Windows Default Lock screen consumes more than 20% in 24h. It doesn't appear in the app, but I feel that when I use Lumia Camera, the battery goes down very quickly as well. Does anyone else have these problems or is it only me? I have already hard reseted it

I'm facing the exact same issue, the battery (my 930) at 100% around 6 hours back and now less than 15%. I thought since this build was recommended by Upgrade Advisor, I expected it to be better.
My phone also shows high utilization by display / windows default lock consuming high battery utilization. I'm on build 10586.164 and hoping to receive a better build, I wont be able to sustain this for more than a few days, before I go back to 8.1 :(
 
I noticed my 930 display really kills the battery, also on .164, but the lock screen doesn't. What display options have you, could it be the screen isn't turning off when on the lockscreen?

IN Win10 Display means GPU too

That is simply not true. There's an app that allows you see the CPU/GPU usage as well as RAM and what tasks are running.
Using that app all day I can see what apps are using GPU and what aren't. GPU usage was literally 1% all day yet my 930 had a staggering 60% display usage.

I would say it is just firmware related as 930 model had a lot of issues with the display. The denim fw fixed some of them but brought the "blinking" screen (don't confuse it with the one from Edge interference that's a different issue).

mmm I don't believe much in that apps, according to Windows Mobile extremely limited system access...
But, if you say that, I believe you
