Did it get any better? What is your brightness at?
I'm getting around 6-7 hours usage playing Clash of clans.
Brightness 80% - 6 hours
Brightness 50% - 7 hours
Can't say i'm pleased, i would be if it lasted me 10 hours.

Well I'm forecast to get 8 hours of use at 30% backlight with normal web use over wifi. I'm not kidding you there! That is markedly poorer than the Air 1 I had.
There has to be something wrong with mine.
After a full charge, brightness close to 100%, 2 hours of use, (xcom, surfing and checking emails) I was at 39%.
Yeah, real deal breaker... LOL
I'm on 22% battery life left with 10 Hours and 15 min of intensive LTE and WIFI use
Bad battery life my ass... Are you kidding me..?!
Not too great either

Thank god there is no "batterygate" thread yet. Anyway, the air 2 can't be as bad as the retina mini, I mean... I get around 6 hours of usage.
Really? I always charge my rMini at 70% and when I'm at 70, I'll have at the very least 4 hours of usage! Under heavy usage I seem to get at least 1 hour and 10 mins per 10 percent used.

Have a launch day Air 2 with quite a good bit of cycles on the battery now so it should be broken in.
Set the brightness at 50%, and did single tab browsing (no videos, just web pages) and facebook only, making sure to close whichever of the two apps I wasn't using.
I failed to get a screenshot at 1% but I was at just over 9 hours usage with 4 days and 17 hours of standby.
So I guess without the long standby I'd be getting right at the advertised 10 hours. So I guess I can't complain, but it definitely doesn't touch my iPad 4 battery performance.
