Pokémon GO is creating a whole bunch of new problems users didn't have to think about before.
Don't get me wrong, people have always been complaining about how crappy smart phone batteries are. But plugs (lol, "butt plugs") are everywhere and portable power sources don't cost a lot of money, so that's not really a big issue.
The real problem is the data consumption, and although Pokémon GO doesn't drain your data as much as a normal GPS (because it doesn't redraw the map as often), it still adds up really fast.
People in the US are a little luckier, T-Mobile has promised to not charge people for their Pokémon GO data usage for at least one year. And while we may not have that luxury here, there are still areas where you can play without draining your data.
