Had my I phone 5c for 2 weeks but not happy with the battery drainage. Is this ok ? What is your usage times?

Hmm, I know Snapchat is a bit contribute to a draining battery, however to further extend your battery life go to Settings - General - Background App Refresh, and uncheck all of the boxes.

Another thing tat a lot of people don't know, your iPhone is constantly tracking your location. (Bit creepy I know.) To turn this off, go to Settings - Privacy - Location Services - System Services - Frequent locations and turn it off.

Hope it helps :)

Thanks but I have turned background refresh off and reset my phone earlier this week and turned off location services .
 
I'm not completely familiar with what the 5C battery usage should be, but those figures don't seem that terrible if you're at 61%.

Are you mostly on WiFi or cellular?

In comparison, my 6+ is currently sitting on 28% after 5 hours 34 minutes usage, and 17 hours, 17 minutes standby. I've mostly been on 4G this charge cycle I think.

For a 5c those numbers seem just fine.
 
Thanks guys ��and on wifi only, no 3G or 4g left.

Well, based on the screenshot, you are connected to a cellular network as well (and the signal in that screenshot seems like it might not be all that great, which can contribute to some higher battery usage).
