Lumia 950 XL - Production or Insider, what's better atm?

[anon(3463402)]

Can anyone compare these two? I'm currently running 14393.726. It's nice but battery life is not good, also my phone is hot sometimes. Are there any improvements in the current insider builds? Should I switch? Thanks.

I ran the Fast and Slow Insiders on my 950 and 950XL and am now currently staying with 14393.726. I have found very few releases that are good on battery, and they are all past builds. Currently I am not using Groove because it is my primary battery hog, I get all day with 35% + left over not using it. With Groove I am charging at 12 hours use. They all had other issues too. At the moment I would stay away from Fast and Slow unless you have a spare that is not a daily driver. The threads have the issues documented and it seems time for the next wave of releases.........

Production will technically always be the safer bet. I use the latest Fast ring build, I also use Groove most of the day too and the battery manages to last enough for me on this build.

Thanks. I'll stick to Release Preview for now then.
