Restore fixed battery life
I had battery issues before the update, and I did a full restore and registered as new phone and it absolutely fixed the battery issue.
Did the update for iOS 5.0.1 and my battery went to crap again. Did a full restore and registered as new phone again, and it fixed my battery.
Pain in the butt to do the full restore, but definitely assures me that the phone is capable of good battery life.

After the update my 4S's battery life is STELLAR
At this rate I could easily go two days without charging (though I charge it every night..)

You have email on?
I was alland then I realized that you have a 4. Those are great stats
Oh no its from a 4S, i havent updated my sig (if that is what you are referring to).
My iOS 5.0.1 battery is horrid. 5.0 was ok, a little worse then 4.3.x, but way better then 5.0.1!!!
Apple this is horrible. as anyone looked at the one thread on Apple discussions discussing iOS 5.0.1 battery? 41 pages of people saying battery life is horrible

Yeah I have 2 accounts, and my gmail is set up as exchange.
I have wifi on (obvious from the photo), but no bluetooth. My usage was email, pandora, web browsing, and maybe a youtube vid or two.
You use push or fetch? I'm trying to decide to have my email on push or fetch

I was in triage today. Further, a lot of that is Netflix and iHeartRadio. Also, our hospital is undergoing a complete rennovation and 40% of our rooms are closed down and the entrance doesn't even look like we're open and patients have to walk in through the ambulance bay. Basically it's a big cluster and our 200+ patient a day trauma center's volume has been cut in half for the past week so it's not quite as life destroying as usual. Thanks for the critique, though.
Pushing gurneys around is a hard job but someone's got to do it. Keep it up!
I'm not a transporter, nice try though. In fact, I don't even know if we have transporters. And transporter's don't work in an ER much less in triage.
Maybe you could scroll down and take another screenshot so we can see if you plugged it in since the last full charge (looks "conveniently" cropped to me)

I dont understand how you guys get these numbers...
It's probably just browsing the phone usage.
I don't think that 4 hours of usage has more than 30 mins of calls
I can see it now. New feature of iPhone 5. Removable battery. So you can carry a spare to get you through the day. It will be revolutionary!
I don't mean to pick on you because so many others do it but I have to say that reporting your usage and percentage drop WITHOUT stating how you were using your device doesn't help anyone. If you were constantly surfing the web over a sub-par 3g connection, I would say your drop is expected.
It doesn't help when folks say they get 9 hours of batter life and then we later learn that 3 hours of it was listening to music.
