iPhone iPhone 5 replacement

Me too.



2 restores as new from iCloud

2 restores as new, manually inputted contacts

2 restores done by the Apple store both times setup as new

All 3 times I've been to the apple store they tell me my battery is perfect.



To put things in perspective..... before turning off Cellular data my usage time was 1 hour 6 minutes for usage and 4 hours and 43 mintues for stand by and I would be at 58%. Since turning off Cellular data i'm now at 89% with 42 minutes of usage and 4 hours and 53 mintues of stand by.



The funny part was when i went to the apple store the second time the "head" tech had the same phone as me but he was at 73% with 11 hours of Stand by time and i was at 36% at 11 hours of stand by time. He had nothing off and I had turn off every setting. And it gets better.... I made a appointment but showed up early so i sat at the table waiting for my turn. A guy comes in with a broke ipad mini that he ran over with his car and he had no appointment. They got to the guy with the broken ipad before me and without question gave him a new one. A lady shows up after him with a crack down the screen of her ipad mini and she also had no appointment and they did the same with here, got to her before me and gave her a new ipad. When it was my turn all i got was the head tech arguing with me because i did a restore as new 2 days before hand because my phone was saying it was attached to there macbook airs that the guy used to wipe the first time(iTunes could wirelessly sync with the stores Macbook Air). I leave the store after they wipe it again and left the phone the same way but I added my mail accounts. The third time going to the store the person who helps me says once again my battery is perfect and then sets mail to fetch data manually(was set to fetch every hour before). I leave the store and once again the same problems is still there. The only thing that helps is turning cellular data off.

Yeah I noticed that cellular data off works fine and the ppl at apple should all be fired they no nothing are just stupid

I'm afraid to get a new iPhone because according to every apple employee i talk to I have a perfect battery. But whats so good about a perfect battery if something is constantly draining it?

In my opinion you would be a fool to update to iOS7 until you see a slew of online consumer reports stating that the battery drain is finally fixed.

I'm in the same position. Actually, I never updated my 4s to iOS 6 as I was afraid of accelerated battery drain and the dreaded greyed out Wi-Fi (both of which were reported after the release of iOS 6). So here it is 2014 and I'm living like its 2012. In addition to the vintage 4s (5.1.1) I've got an iPad 4 which is still running iOS 6. I'm the poster boy for iOS fragmentation. Its catching up to me quickly now as far as being able to buy compatible apps and thats taking into consideration Apple's recent decision to allow users to purchase legacy builds. I quit updating my apps in late September. If you like the certainty you find in iOS 6, stick with it, but realize there's a trade off; living in the past isn't easy.

Yeah man you're right.. I updated me iphone 4s to ios7 and that was a big mistake. I get like 4 hours of usage.... it's totally crap... my ipad 4 is now in reperation because of the same issues , ios7, instead of having like 20 hours of usage on ios6 i get like 14... there is for me, personnally they way i use my things a huge difference.. and it'slike you say it's really difficult to live "in the past"
