It is amazing how much the battery lasts on the new iPhone 7, with all my other iPhones I have to charge it every day at night or in the middle of the day, but with the iPhone 7 the battery goes and goes and goes.

Right now the battery info shows the following:

Usage 9 hr, 22 min
Standby 52 hr, 43 min

I still have 4% of battery remaining and I will post here what are the final usage when I got over 1%


I don't have installed apps like Facebook, Snapchat, or Twitter, that apps suck all the battery in minutes. But maybe if you disable background app refresh you will have better battery usage.
 
Good to hear smaller phone better now.

I haven't seen much difference between plus 7 and 6 plus (with tsmc).

That Samsung chip 6s plus was a real disappointment.
 
I think with the larger battery and the removal of the 3.5 Jack, those extra two hours of battery life were crucial for the iPhone 7.
