Want to see how long peoples batteries are lasting to check if mine is the norm. Please pick a time closest to what you get.
 
You want usage? or standby + usage? Usually pretty close to 9ish hours usage with 1 1/2 days standby.
 
You should do usage instead. Plus that's a pretty big gap between 12 hrs and one day.
 
oh **** from the first 2 replies i think my battery definitely got problem..

usage around 3hours, standby 3 hours...

and i got only 30% left...

what's wrong with my battery???
 
Here's mine. . . I had to sync up (Probably left it on my Mac for 15 minutes) so I really didn't get a full charge that's why It says "iPhone has been plugged in"

The iPhone 4 specs tell you what you "should" be getting.

If your using the iPod a lot you are going to get more usage life than if you are streaming video, etc.

Typically, with only using a half hour of Ipod use, I get around 7 hours of usage with 20 some hours standby. Most of this being browsing through news apps and using Twitter clients.

I just added mine together to give a total idea of battery time. So your like 2 days without charging which is pretty good.

This is mine. I know what the 'specs' say I just want the real data from users not the ideal battery life :p
 
It depends on the day, but I usually get six hours of usage & seven-eight hours of standby. I'm down to 20% by then. Seems like other people are getting way better than that, though. :(
 
Absolutely! IMHO these "Usage" figures mean absolutely nothing - it's what you are using the 'phone for that counts.

Exactly. These really high usage and standby times come from iPod usage mainly with very little usage of other things. I don't care what people say they are doing. Proof is in the pudding.
