Siri's Battery Drain in the iPhone 5

[igorcv88]

Hi, is it true that Siri drains a LOT of juice in the iPhone 5 (even while I am not using it)? Is it like 30 min. to 1 hour difference or more of a 2 to 3 hours of difference?

Siri, when not in use, should not cause a noticeable increase in battery drain. It definitely does not drain a lot of juice, even when it's used.

If you're that concerned, under Siri settings, turn off the Raise to Speak option. That's the only thing that would really make any sort of difference.

Otherwise, just use Siri normally and don't worry about it.
