My battery life wifi 70% of the time. More than half of this usage time is playing games I'm not sure if it would be much better or slightly better if I didn't play games.
How about laptop battery?Such as: Batteria Asus X52F,Asus X52F Batteria,Alimentatore/Caricabatteria Asus X52F
Even better than before! I think my battery is becoming seasoned.

I don't know why there are such major differences other than the possibility that some people just got phones with not so great batteries. It could also be usage types - I use my iPad for more media rich things, for example, and use my phone for text based communications and music. I don't really use my phone as a phone much - I'm not a real chatty person. So that may explain why I have battery life like this and others may have different stories. I don't know.
I can attest that anything media rich like games are gonna impact your battery that way. However, 5 1/2 hours usage over well over a day with 17% left isn't anything to sneeze at. My absolute best when the phone finally died was at about 8 1/2 hours usage in almost 3 days, but I pretty much only read and listened to music during that timeframe, nothing really graphics intensive or anything, and no phone calls. I also don't have many things with push notifications either.
When I play games and things, I get about 6 1/2 - 7 hours usage.

How much of that useage is over wifi? I can get better than that over wifi, but on cellular data I've come nowhere near close to 7 hours. 4-5 hours tops over LTE or 3G.
This phone is like dr. Jekyll and Mr. iPhone 5...on wifi battery life's outstanding, much better than my 4s, on cell you can literally watch the battery life burn off, even with a 4 or 5 bar 4g or LTE signal.
I hope this is a software glitch, cause as an earlier poster noted its only us AT&T users that seem to be having issues...
I'm on Verizon and I'm experiencing the exact same thing. Doing anything over LTE or 3G literally melts battery life. Hopefully it's software related and not a hardware issue.

I have noticed while I was streaming football on Sunday at the park it did use more battery but not horribly ... My phone is solid an got it on release day http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/17/a2age2ap.jpg
Pelligro, can you share your usage patterns and settings with us (e.g. Push email, %wifi vs 4g/LTE, brightness, etc). I got 9.25 hours of usage the other day, but that was 90%+ on wifi, yesterday 90%+ on 4g/lte my usage was about 5 hours.
Althought this seems in line with the test results obtained by ilounge.com you and others suggest that you get 9+ even with substantial 4g/lte usage, hence my confusion and concern that I have a defective or sub-standard iPhone...
