Usage Stats

[theperipheral]

Just so we 4S users can all get an average idea of what sort of battery life we are getting, I think it'd be a good idea if everyone posted their current "Usage" stats along with their current battery percentage. Obviously running iOS5. I'm running a few notifications, a few iCloud things, and wifi.

Usage: 2 hours 58 minutes
Standby: 8 Hours 39 minutes

Battery: 50%

Running absolutely NOTHING. Phone in Airplane mode, i.e. absolutely no network, no nothing. Not touching it.

Usage: 59 minutes
Standby: 1 hour 5 mins

Disconnected fully charged phone from power 1 hour and 5 mins ago.

Not good!!

Restore. If that doesn't work. Take it back to Apple.

What this forum needs is a few good battery threads.

Literally LOL'd.

Anyway, I was experiencing sub-par battery life until I completely discharged it (i.e. turned itself off). Since then it's been okay. I'd like it to be better but it is a new battery... takes a while to condition it (I'd imagine, I don't have a PhD in batteries).
