My battery usually drops 1-2% a minute while on the Internet using my 3G. Now, I'm not attributing that all to the Beta 3, but it doesn't help. Too, it drops 7-8% an hour while in standby; and that's with all my apps closed. So, I'm looking forward to what the 4th Beta does in terms of battery life.
i agree. i loose 1% a minute or so while browsing on 3G, little longer on wifi. i unplugged at 6pm and its now 4:20am, almost 10.5 hours, and these are my stats. dont know if its good or not.
58% battery
Usage: 4 hr, 23 mins
Standby: 10 hr, 17 mins
opinions? if i reboot the phone immediately after being unplugged from 100%, it will be a slow drop to 99/98. if i dont, it will drop to 99% within minutes. sometimes it goes to 97% and i reboot and it goes back to 100%.

Like the sounds of this...hope iOS6 does really fix some of the battery issuesi know there is monitoring software and other variables that could make an impact with each build during these betas which will make it difficult to judge
however, i am pretty impressed so far: currently at 30 Min usage with 2 hours of standby 98%
i hope it stays this way or get better come the GM
so you are saying that at 58% remaining you have those stats??
Facebook, especially the app, eats up quite a bit of battery and uses a big chunk of memory. Your usage time is still decent though.correct. and if i do 10 mins of texting, words with friends or check FB, i can watch the battery drop a percent every 2-3 mins. THAT seems a little high.
im now at 56%
Usage: 3h, 47min
Standby: 8h, 41 mins
worse than yesterday.
This is about the best I can get.
anyone have any comments/thoughts on the beta 4 battery performance yet?
beta 4 seems a bit better for me than beta 3 was, for battery life
