iOS 7.1...How's your battery life?

Battery is getting ready to tap out. Personally this battery life is disappointing to me. It's far short of the proclaimed 10 hours on LTE. I'm going to try a clean install tonight.

that is bad. Try the settings I posted earlier in this thread.

This is on my iPhone 5. I used to get around 10 hours before iOS7. I hardly ever made it to 8 with iOS 7.0.x.

Although it's too soon but seems like 7.1 has improved the battery life on mine.

That is great battery life. This is basically what I expect and get from mine.

Never really had an issue with it, but since update it even better.

It's either the same as before or slightly better, but I've always gotten good battery life with my iPhones...

Good seeing everyone getting close to or more out their battery

Back to awesome battery life! Didn't even come close to this with my JB on 7.0.6.

Did a clean install last night, and did not reinstall my Bluetooth accessories. Battery looks similar to yesterday. It must be the place where I work I can't figure out what else could cause the numbers I get. Or maybe I expect too much.

Subjectively my battery life doesn't feel like its changed but I had no problems with battery life on 7.0.6.

Never understood posting screenshots of battery stats. They really are meaningless unless you also provide an accompanying breakdown of what you were doing during your usage time, what type of internet connection you were using, the quality of your cellular connection, screen brightness, etc.

I could just turn on spotify, turn the screen off, and stream over wifi....and subsequently post a screenshot that shows I got 12 hours of usage. I could then jack up the brightness and stream youtube videos over a weak 3G network and post a screenshot of 3 hours. If I didn't tell you what I was doing during each one, you'd think my phone was faulty.

I was on LTE (which it shows in the screenshot) just doing general usage. Browsing, messaging.

It's always the same usage for me, music listening, web browsing, instant messaging, phone calls.

I thought it should be an average kind of day for anyone else.

Make no mistake though, I am convinced battery life has increased much this time round.

I see many people complaining about battery life but iPhone 5 battery has improved a lot after installing 7.1

My battery life on my 5S is awful. Before it was hard to make it a full day, but now it's downright impossible without needing charged at least once during the day. Not sure what happened to make the battery life so much worse, but it makes me wish I wouldn't have updated. Apple needs to start putting much larger batteries in their phones and maybe that will help somewhat, but geese I guess I got lucky in the past and never had battery issues with previous iPhones and updates until the 5S.
