Best usage I've had.
Wow. How much of that usage was spent on Wi-Fi? And how much of that was listening to music?
That's crazy. The best I've gotten was 9hrs 30mins usage and 1.5 days stanby with 5% left. That was 95% on wifi and the screen brightness always the lowest. I now bring the screen brightness up and use more 3G/LTE and I can't really make it through a full day.Nearly all of it was Wifi use, including Facebook, texting, GroupMe, Safari. Two or so hours on LTE and about an hour of pure music.app use
I honestly was shocked at it myself. I didn't do anything different from what I normally do on those days. I just make sure my apps are closed and that my screen brightness it at 60% or less.
I feel like this could be better...I charged it at work to 100% then took it off charger at like 4pm , got off work at 5 and at 5:30 played a game for like 45 min maybe longer and then took this screen shot. 60% seems. Little steep for having it off the charger only a few hours , it's 7 pm now I took that pic ten min ago. I might swap this one for another at apple because my moms iPhone 5 gets amazing battery and mine not so much. What do u guys think?

Doesn't seem like the software update is going to do anything to help the battery life.
Seems like we'll have to wait until 6.1 (after Christmas) if anything. An Apple Genius had told me 6.0.1 would improve the battery life when I took mine in.
Mine has incredible battery on wifi. On 3G or LTE it seems to drain every time I do a simple action on it (send one text, look at one website, read one email, etc.)
