I got over 12 yesterday and I am at 7 hours at 62%

I average 9-10 hours usage, which I believe is the average based on what I've seen. Those 16-24+ hour usage results just simply cannot be true. Anything over 12 hours also makes me doubtful. Unless the majority of time is spent on the home and lock screen (which some are from what I've seen), the results should usually be closer to 10 hours. Maybe a bit less maybe a bit more

I totally agree - It almost seems like some folks on here (not all, some) with high results do nothing but put on a fancy lock screen and post on here.

In my case, real usage would be a 10 hour day of everything from:

• Creating content (Spreadsheets, documents, presentations, Evernote, etc)
• Making/receiving audio or video calls
• Sending/receiving texts/email
• Reading/searching web content
• Using the phone as a hotspot
• Shooting video or taking pictures (maybe a little editing in there as well depending on the day).

For now, my iPad Air does about 2/3 of those things and the 5s does the rest but if I could get all those things done with the 6 Plus and still have a respectable amount of power left to get through 2-3 hours of home usage before bed, I'd be thrilled.

Impressive battery on this phone.. I'm also jailbroken, which on my other devices drained faster for some reason.

took off charge 2am when I went to bed, now 7pm still on 40%

Does it matter if I plug my phone in at night even if it already has at least 80% charge?

Just got my plus today and it was initially charged at 61%. It has drained fairly quickly over the last four hours, however I did have a few lengthy phone calls and of course app downloads and updates. Now at 1%. Should I be concerned?

I wouldn't be...I wasn't impressed by my 6 Plus's battery life until about 3-4 days after I had been using it like I normally would. Charge it full a few times, and then report back what you're getting this weekend.

Thanks! I let it run all the way down and now charging it to 100%. I'll update in a couple days.

Impressive.
It lasts twice as long as my iPhone 5s.

Pretty solid.

Is this considered good? Not being sarcastic I'm just new to iPhone.

So I'm on day three of having my plus. Battery still not great, and when I look up the usage it lists the App Store as draining the most of it (and it also says it has a low signal). I'm not on the App Store and it's not opened on my phone. What's the deal?

 

[sirbenjaminj]

Why is the App Store draining so much?

Maybe you have push notifications set on for the App Store and/or background app refresh and auto updates set on.
Just set every setting of the App Store to OFF.
