Is this ok, great or poor?
Home and lock screen 18%? It's not like we spend a lot of time on these screens. That's doesn't make sense. Perhaps a background process?
Got a tip for us?

My wife got 5 hours usage and 24 hours standby. With around 35% battery left. iPhone 5s. I have the usual optimizations going like limited background app refresh an other stuff.
My 5s seems ok - no difference from older 8.x or ios 7.
I believe Home screen & lock screen usage includes notifications (I.e the banner that pops up and wakes the phone when you get a notification)
Home and lock screen mean the screen is using power. Whether it be when the screen is waking for notifications or just during normal usage, it falls under the 'home and lock screen" part of usage.
