Wow. I never get that. Do you play music on your device? I think it's cause i play music for 5 hours at worth through my earphones on my device I never get those stats.
A little. It depends on my day. Obviously yesterday, I didn't have time as it would show up in my used apps. I do a lot of surfing and streaming of YT to the ATV.

My Opinion About Battery phones on 3G / 4G

4 hours of screen = BAD
5 hours of screen = Media
6 hours of screen = GOOD
7 + hours of screen = Great


Iphone 6 Plus has a solid battery but Iphone has 6!

Good phone battery has to be good in 3G / 4G. In wifi is easy to be good!

I'm on a mission to figure out how to get 10 hours of battery life out of my 6 Plus while also retaining the settings I prefer day to day. So far I've flirted with 9...

Initially I wasn't all that impressed with the battery life, but now that I'm seeing 8+ hours of lifespan almost EVERY cycle I've charged, I'm more than impressed. If I can figure out a balance of settings that work for me and 10 hours of battery life, I'll do a damn cartwheel!

I don't think you'll be getting past 9 hours, I'm a pretty heavy user and I'm getting close to, but I don't think it's possible to get over 9 with this phone. Could be wrong tho.

I have never seen battery Mike this before on any android device. Not even my 5S was like. Almost an hour and still no movement in battery. And i used GPS... Not for long mind but still it was in use. If this keeps up, Apple would've set a new bar for battery life.

The percentage could be stuck, I had an android Tablet that wouldn't show the correct percentage after a charge until I rebooted it.

Also, I was charging my 6+ the other day, say it hit 98%, came back in 20 minutes and it was still on 98, then I came back after s little while longer and it was at 100.

Yeah it wasn't stuck... Because it started going shortly after that... When your phone reached 98% and stayed there for a while it's because your phone was trickle charging. And some phones deplete the battery and then charge it again... I guess it's to maintain battery health...

I left mine on LTE all night after a full charge, it's at 93% now, took it off the charger after 1 am or so.

Not bad at all. Should be even better on wifi. You sync email etc all night?

Yea but I use cloud magic to sync my email, it usually takes up just 1 percent of my battery, I also have a bunch of apps send me notifications throughout the night like twitch tv and tapatalk.

Using intense safari for 15 minutes on the Iphone 6 Plus
How many per cent the battery% drops?

My Iphone 5s consumed 1% every 3 to 4 minutes
