I know that capacity shouldn't have anything to do with the battery life, but I've read that some people have battery problems, and some people don't.

Maybe, then, the build of some batches of iPhones ended up with battery problems, while others didn't?

I was just curious to see if there might be a disparity between the three different 4S models.

A single charge lasts me two (sometimes 2.5 days) days, so awesome battery life!:D:cool:

What are your charging habits to get 2 days?
I charge it while sleeping every other night. I plug it in around 11pm or 12am, then unplug it when I wake up around 4am or 5am before rolling over and falling back asleep til 9am. Airplane mode is enabled while sleeping, too.

Charge nightly:-$
 
I bought a few for my family. One gets decent battery life, two get terrible life. One was replaced by Apple, to no avail. But I don't mind I have multiple chargers in different rooms, in my car, and two at work.

Also I expect that Apple will have it sorted out for iPhone 5 or whatever they call it. Apple usually gets it right the second time around. I'm not concerned. It will be just a few more months & the new phone should be out. If not we can practice our patience till Apple deems it's ready.
