Well, to some degree depending on your connection, active browsing in Safari is one of the things that can eat up quite a bit of battery. Many have often seen usage of about 1% every 2 or 3 minutes, which would actually be consistent with what you noticed it would seem.
Got a tip for us?

Hi, I'm a new owner of an iphone 6 and I notice that the usage time increase of 20-30 min during my 10 hours night. I also loss like 3% of charge. It's important to know that I put the phone on airplane mode at night. Do you think I should worry about battery issue. I read a lot of thing and im little bit worry! Thanks
Im at 32% of charge (start from 100%), 6h32 min of usage and 1 day 11h of standby. But the usage it's probably not 100% right cause like I said it increase of like 30min in night, while it's on airplane mode.
Seems like you are fine (if not even more than fine) and nothing to worry about.
Ok, so you think it's ''normal'' that the usage increase a couple of minutes even if it's on airplane mode?
Thanks a lot for your answer Ok, so you think it's ''normal'' that the usage increase a couple of minutes even if it's on airplane mode?
Some process was wrapping up or doing this or that. Even if it's not completely "normal" or obvious, it doesn't seem to be presenting any issues, and that's really the important part in all of that.
Ok, I was on the point to go see a guy at the Genius bar but if you said it look normal, im going to keep this one. But have you, or other people, ever notice this on your phone?
There's a whole recent thread about this very thing (and likely some older ones), so definitely something that others have noticed.
Just had an iPhone 5 charged and left overnight in airplane mode and without being touched at all since the point of being charged--it has 13 minutes of usage on it now that I used it for the first time to check the battery usage.

When's first got the iPhone 6 my battery life was great. Here recently my batteryife has gotten progressively worse and worse.
I have no apps running in the background and I have my settings all the same as they were on Day 1 so I really don't know what the problem is...
All I do know is that I wake up everyday at 3 am to get to my work by 4am. When I wake up u phone is100%... By 4:30 am with my phone not being used at all I may be at 80... Maybe less. This is while I'm at work the battery is dropping a lot while I'm not even on screen. Its really weird. I have all location services off... I have push turned off... Idk what else to do honestly

20% down when not being used? That's not normal even with most settings on. Unless you are in a bad reception area for most of that time perhaps. Otherwise sounds like something is stuck running. Check to see that background refresh is off too just in case. In general though you should try rebooting, and perhaps resetting some settings even if not removing and re-adding some accounts. Perhaps even a full restore.
Yeah that's what I thought. Something is definitely wrong. I'm thinking about doing a complete refresh. always says its software so I hate wasting time going to the Genius Bar, but I may try to do the complete refresh by deleting everything and starting new...if that doesn't work
I'll have to go tithe Genius Bar
Heres my typical usage from my i6. 7 hours onscreen time and just over and hour of a run with slacker radio (from device and screen locked) playing over Bluetooth earbuds. It's right where it should be. I can't complain!
This is the type of usage I used to get which was great. Much better then my 5s had gotten, but now idk what has happened.
Seems just fine.

Not Plus? That's quite a bit for a regular 6--not something that most typically get or even can get even sometimes.
