Sounds about right... but I don't nearly get the standby that you do.

Hey guys,
SO this is how mine looks i see that my battery drops 1% down every 2-3mins without doing anything like jus being on the home screen. I am really worried. Can anyone tell me how does this stats look like.
Your WIFI is ON. Try it OFF.
Then compare
This is what I've been getting from my 5s (attached screenshot). Do you think this is good or not? If not, any tips on how to improve it at all? Thanks.
Are you in an area with a consistently good cellular connection?
Could there be a glitch that means cellular data keeps going as well as wifi? Or is that normal?
I'm jealous of the battery life you're getting
Don't be jealous. His screen is off probably 75% of the time...let your iPod play and watch those numbers above happen. We need "screen on" time like Android to really get the sense of usage since that's what kills battery most.
I don't know what it is but I've always had problems with the Facebook apps, even now that it isn't causing me any problems I'm always cautious to update it.
I'm on my phone quite a bit, but I don't really play any games. Lot of reading and streaming music and podcast, YouTube, and other media apps. A few calls here and there texting throughout the day. Photos etc.

Ringer: silent most or the time
Brightness: 20-40 auto
GPS: only on for a handful of apps/ iAds off
Wifi: always on
BT: only when needed/wanted
Notifications: only a handful show unless phone is unlocked/ no repeat as I check my phone often enough
Mail: push is only on for my professional account, fetch hourly everything else
Background refresh: handful of apps
Active apps: I always close anything I'm not using
I still think if your not getting at least 8-9 hours of reasonable/normal use something is wrong. On all my I devices if I don't get at least one hour for every 10% of normal use I look at taking it back if a fresh install or setup doesn't work.
I have ordered my phone and I know you can use it directly without having to load but will it discharge to 0% on the first day?
Know that Apple recommends that you should fully discharge the battery once a month but not if you should start with it or not.
According to their post, this was their usage:
Lots of reading and streaming music and YouTube, thus they are on cellular data.
If that was my usage, I probably couldn't go over 5-6 hours... Their usage sounds very similar to mine, in fact it sounds like they use their phone more than I do. I don't even have fetch/push enabled for mail and they do. Shouldn't I be getting at least 10 hours of usage?
I'm have battery issues with my new 5s. The first one I had was awesome with battery life. I returned it due to fingerprint scanner issues. Now this phone my battery life is awful. I've followed tips for conserving battery life but I'm still watching it drain.
I don't use anything that would seem to drain the battery (and certainly nothing different from the previous 5s that I had). I hardly ever stream or play music, I occassionally surf the web and use the Facebook app. That's Pretty much it.
I'm at 49% with 2 hrs of usage and 4 hrs of standby.... That can't be normal?
