How is your iPhone 5 battery life?

[boldBud]

Did a full battery charge last night on my new iPhone (couple days) and losing insanely on standby which isn't normal for me. Ideas?

If I don't charge it at night.. or forget to I can get a solid day and a half with moderate to high usage.

One more. The best one yet.

about 1 hour and 45 min of this is listening to music the rest is browsing forums and a lot of texting and Internet surfing mostly wifi. Location services on and push for one email fetch every hour for another.

My best yet of course most of this was on Wi-Fi. Last hour was listening to music and playing Drop 7.

The Battery is giving wonderful backup. But its hard for me to tell what about future performance.

My best so far.
Combination of wifi and LTE

My batt life has been great I could listen to pandora all day 8-5 on headphones and have numerous calls with about an hour of browsing all while on lte and still have 30-40% at the end of the day but for the past few days I have been drained by 5 with less usage. What's up??? Thinking about a reset.

Also been having time and date issues.

Is anyone aware there is 1424mAh iPhone 5 battery and another one with 1440mAh? Could this be the reason some have good battery life?
Try google and see. On Apple website itself does not mention anything about battery capacity only talk time which is ambiguous and completely vague since it depends on network configuration, signal strength, etc.

Hmm interesting. I saw on gsmarena that it's 1440. Anyone else notice or can chime in?

One day and 11 hours is the best I have had between charges. Bloody good

 

[boldBud]

Pretty good charge for me. Usage was 70% on Wi-Fi, 30% on 3G. It included some texting, browsing, streaming about 25 mins of video and some music playback over the speakers.

Can't complain to much!

Here is one more. I am very impressed with the one day battery life between charges and 8-9 hours of use.

I have to say, my battery on the 5 is awful, i cant wait till mophie makes a new case hopefully one like the 4s that is very well protected

 

[nj1266]

One more. I had 22% left but had to plug in for navigation purposes.

Oh, I just received my 5. Still waiting for the nano-sim. But battery-life is good, after having charged it to maximum it was completely empty wihin 15 hours. I gotta order an external battery now I think.
