I have no clue what's going on. It's happening to me as well.

Did you restore from a backup?

My battery life seems a little better. I have no idea why you guys are having the problems you are having. Good luck

No problems here at all. I think it may actually be slightly improved.

I saw a little bit the first day I downloaded iOS 5 but I think that was because I was playing around too much. Now I don't see a battery drain, just normal.

After being out in real world usage yesterday I can say my battery life on the iPhone 4 with iOS 5 is significantly worse. I can see it draining in front of my eyes. Yesterday in a span of 9 hours with mostly texting, a short call, and some light 3G use the battery went from 100 to 35%. In the time it took to type this post I have watched it drop from 96 to 93% and am on wifi. That is very poor IMO.

Maybe it's iCloud constantly trying to keep up with updates.

Battery

Had same problem until reading this. Turned off iCloud backing up when phone is locked in settings and it's all good now

What steps did you take to do that? Thanks.

Well mine is still as good as ever. With heavy use all day, 3-4 phone calls, texting, web surfing, editing my bookmarks, playing words, geting NFL updates all day, etc...I got 8 hours and 30 minutes of usage and 15 hours of stand by. I am now at 7% battery left. I have BT disabled and some notifications enabled, GPS disabled. I will plug it in when I go to bed and charge it overnight.

I was using my friend's iphone yesterday, and it was like almost 6-8 hours of usage and the battery went half a way, and was drained, that really created an issue for me. I would like to know if there is some solution of it to avoid the battery drainage so quickly. Kindly let me know about that.

Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and toggle Backup to Off.
