If anyone's holding off on the iOS 6.1.1 update for iPhone 4S, wait no more - the update has worked wonders for battery life.

I went from 100%-66% (1h 30m/14h 5m, 6.1) to 100%-88% (1h 24m/14h 5m, 6.1.1).
 
Don't think you'll be able to get a full analysis of battery life from 1 day of the new OS being out. Take a few days to check and see if it improves. Battery life in general on iOS6 isn't that great. I had an iPhone 4, it was great on iOS4, and then iOS5 and 6 pretty much ruined battery life from there on and is pretty much the same on the iPhone 5.
