I seem to get 1 hour of use = 10%. I approach 10 hours if I run it down all the way and a few seem to approach 12.
Reset as new last night and so far same rate. It is possible I am just using the 6 a lot more but I definitely had more battery at the end of the day with 5c and 5s.
On the upside the standby holds very well for me despite location and Bluetooth being on all day. If I put it on a charge for a time while during work it lasts well enough until late at night. What concerns me are days away from desk where the phone is needed to keep me in touch. The 10 hours is with only a few phone calls. The days away from desk tend to have more calling.
It appears that a lot of you are getting similar and a few are a bit better. Was hoping the restore as new would put me in the slightly better group but maybe my use patterns are just different.
UPDATE: going to resist charging today as a test. Just to see if restore as new helped at all.
