Put your iPhone on silent, play a song or any sound, stop it then immediately put your iPhone speakers near your ear, you will hear a sort of noise which stops after a few seconds, even if you play a game with music/sound off, it send out that noise. It's definitely a bug since it's doesn't happen under iOS 6. It's a phantom battery killer! Does it happen to you?

Just tried it on my iPhone and you're right. It's like a static noise isn't it? Kinda weird but I doubt it affects your battery at all.

Yep exactly! I think it does affect the battery since if you are playing a game with music/sound off, it still has that static noise. It means the speakers are active when it shouldn't be.
