iPhone 5 battery life [Merged]

I am wondering why some people saying that the battery life is amazing while some other saying no.
 
Haven't really taken notice of battery yet. Mainly because I know I've been using it like crazy for the past few hours.
 
Took me 6 hours and 30 minutes of straight game playing, picture taking, and iMessaging to go from 90% to 0%

Depends on how you have it set up. If you have email set to push often, and a lot of syncing to icloud, battery will drain faster.
 
RE: Battery life. It's awesome, much better than my 2 year old iPhone 4.

I had it plugged into the Mac yesterday while setting it up, was plugged in copying music, etc, while I was playing with it.

Has been unplugged ever since, used it for a few hours last night, several hours today. Been connected to Wifi, browsing, Flipboard, Facebook, a few texts/iMessages, a couple of short (1-2 minute) phone calls, a few games (Words With Friends, SocialChess, etc...), BlueTooth to speakerdock for 30 mins.

Currently at 14% remaining:

"Time Since Last Full Charge" stats:
Usage: 7 hours 41 minutes
Standby: 20 hours, 47 minutes

Will run it down to 0 and do another full charge, but yet another aspect that I'm very impressed with.
 
I'm starting to notice the battery life draining a little quicker then the iP4 for sure on my 16gb iP5. And what sucks is i'm gonna have to take the charger with me to work and back since I can't get another one for 2-3 weeks lol.
 
impresive

although my 4S would get 1/2 day while jb'd and "a day" of moderate use

i'm truly impressed with 5: out of box, 12 hours of almost constant use and 5 hours standby over night!

What the heck?!? I'm at:
Usage: 1 Hour, 44 Min
Standby: 4 Hours, 14 min

I'm at 65%!!!
This phone is a joke compared to my iPhone 4
 
My battery life is dreadful, this is from light browsing on 3G and using the twitter app. How bad is this?

Been over an hour of just texting(most of what I do) and hasn't dropped at all. Very happy so far.
