90% of my activity was just browsing instagram today.. Kinda disappointing TBH...
Anyone close to being as bad as this?
Only 10 apps out of 26 are using background app refresh. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Did you turn off 'background app refresh' ? Massive battery savings. My s6 plus gets 6 hours of actual use and 8+ on standby.

Because it benchmarked "low"? I'd be MUCH more worried about real world use.. LOL.

You don't have to get applecare plus in 14 days. You have 60 days from the date of purchase to add applecare Plus to your iPhone device.If you didn't get AppleCare at the time of purchase - do it now, quickly.. Before 14 days are up - you can add AppleCare. Then if you suspect a battery issue -- it's on Apple to replace it from available stock.
Everybody's TURNED OFF that damned WIFI ASSIST thing... right?!... First of all it will eat your Data for LUNCH.. and second it's a super huge battery drain..
Also - unless you live in an area where you're between two cell towers of huge difference and you want to try and land on the stronger one.. MAKE SURE to go into Privacy/LocationServices/SystemServices and turn off the switch for Cell Network Search and Setting TimeZone.. You don't need either of those as they're automatic processes if you're staying in country. Bit battery eaters too. In fact most things in the SystemServices window are battery eaters, 90% of which you don't need.
Keep Routing and Traffic ON... because, and I'm often surprised to find that most people don't know this, that button allows YOUR POSITION to be reported as part of the flow of traffic. It has nothing to do with you GETTING to see traffic on your phone.. It reports YOUR position as part of the whole traffic flow.

I'm on my second 6S+ as the first was returned with a faulty home button. I was getting superb battery life on that phone but the replacement is pretty poor. I have exactly the same settings and usage pattern but am getting over an hour less usage time from this phone. I'm quite disappointed and am probably going to exchange it purely due to the battery life. If this was my first 6S+ then I would know no different and assume that they're all like this, but I know otherwise.
First one Samsung, this one TMSC. I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with it though. I've probably just got a poor battery, I mean the lifeblood of the phone only costs Apple a few dollars and I'm sure some are better than others.do you know what chips were those?
Me too!! I've been giving you my 6S Plus specs so far. I have both - and will return one by Friday (end of 14 day return policy).. So my 6S is doing quite nicely so far..I have been pretty pleased so far with my 6s 128gb. I still haven't gotten passed the first couple of charging cycles so if this keeps up, I will be satisfied. This is especially rewarding as I have come from an iPhone 5.
