That graphic doesn't make any sense. I'm sorry but no way in hell did they get 8 hours LTE browsing. Yeah I'm calling them out on that one.

The non-LTE phones see a sharp drop in battery life. At least at 28nm the slower air interfaces simply have to remain active (and drawing power) for longer, which results in measurably worse battery life. Again, the thing to be careful of here is there's usually a correlation between network speed and how aggressive you use the device. With a workload that scaled with network speed you might see closer numbers between 3G and 4G LTE.
I'm with you on that. There is no way in hell they got almost TWICE as much battery life on LTE as they did on 3G, unless Apple has found a way to alter the properties of electricity and is using some sort of magical power source.
I call BS as well.![]()
Only way is maybe they loaded a big page and took 15 minutes to read it then did that again for 8 hours and read 32 long articles. "Browsing" so open to interpretation.
Yeah I think some site(sorry no link) did the netflix test on LTE and they got 5.5-6 hours which sounds much more realistic. prob low screen brightness
Well of course you're going to get shorter battery life while streaming videos compared to regular web browsing.
Looks a bit dodgy to me... Doesnt seem to add up
Where does this guys loyaltys belong?
Is he sponsored?

Huh? I can get that no trouble. See below - this is actually a bit worse than typical, just what I happen to be at right now.

(I'd also just like to note that in the process of this review, I took a jeweler's screwdriver to the back of my previously pristine iPhone 5. I love you guys, don't ever forget it.)
bunch of morons in this thread...did you guys ever thought maybe he's close to a LTE tower?
----------
point proven...being close to a tower helps.
So browsing on 3G gives worse battery life than LTE?
