Love the 6s,,,,HATE THE BATTERY LIFE !!!!!!,,,,, any fixes ??????

[qbnkelt]

Or Apple can stop making their devices smaller which then affects battery life because they are using smaller batteries


But then again I'm no Apple fanboy unlike people here

Why? I've got no problem with my device today and I had no problem with my device last year. So why?

No, you're not an Apple fanboy...guess what....neither am I. Difference between you and me? I don't spend time in forums for devices that don't work for me bemoaning manufactured reasons why they don't work for me. But you do that. Because you like the drama and the attention. But you've lost any credibility you might have had left when you sit there complaining about having to use a juice pack that you already own and claiming that there are no electrical outlets in NY, of all places, to get you through nineteen hour days as a working student.
Come on. Tell me another one. Can't wait.

You guys are giving that dude too much attention. I think the solution is simple. You want to go from 9 am to 3 am on a single charge? Not going to happen. Buy a charge case or a battery pack. Otherwise fall back and deal with the phone you purchased as it is.

Seems simple.

 

[Closingracer]

Then buy a different phone. Or move. Or change your mode of transit. Or change jobs. Or change schools. Do anything but keep complaining. Or use your battery packs or your Mophie. Find a place to charge. Don't stay out until 3am. Etc. Etc. Etc. Do something other than complain. Obviously of my random list of options, using your Anker power pack and Mophie are the easiest followed by gettin a different phone.

Apple does not owe you a perfect phone that meets your EXTREME use case. They are not producing an iPhone just for YOU. They produce one for the million and millions of people for whom the battery life is perfectly sufficient.

I tell my children this all the time. If something doesn't work for you, figure out how to change it and do something about it. If they complain to me, the first thing they get asked is "what did you do to try to fix the problem". If they say they did nothing, they get sent off to try again. I'm not going to listen to them complain if they haven't tried to help themselves.

Really. If I hated something as much as you seem to, I certainly wouldn't buy a product that supports that company. Because all Apple sees from you is another sale. Kaching!!!

I'm not going to change my life around my phone. It should last a long enough for a whole day. Apple will forsake battery life for thinner phone and sell it to you like it's a good thing

I agree with you, 100%. The kicker is he doesn't even use a 6 or 6S. He has a plus. His only agenda here is to agitate and I got sucked in.

Lol? I would get the 6 but horrible battery life is a killer

And you bought it! So sell it if you don't like it. You act like someone held a gun to your head and forced you to buy it and then follows you around everywhere to make sure you are forced to use it and not some other phone.
The battery does last long enough for a full day. As I said, your apparent requirements fall far outside the norm and Apple designs for the masses not snowflakes.

Apple doesn't design for the masses but for whatever they deem is for the "masses". They forsake battery for making it thin as possible will sell it however.

:rotfl::rotfl: if you need more than 10 hours of screen time in a single day from your phone, as you are working, attending school, and hanging out with friends.........then what you need is NOT better battery life.........just a life.

I have one thanks?

First point - Battery Iphone 6s is the median maximum. If for some of you it is good, okay. But for several people and specialized sites battery is a weak point of the phone.
Reviews for use in real life (not script) shows that iPhone 6s battery is similar to the Galaxy s6 which is another phone criticized for its battery.

Second point - The iPhone screen time is not real. If you turn off the screen with applications running in the background, the IOS will compute screen time even if the screen estaja off. So do not feel proud that you can 10 hours of screen time on your iphone 6s of 4.7 "this is not real use! This will never happen. Not Z3 compact Sony or Motorola Droid can close this time.

ps. Battery iphone 6 Plus is good.

Battery life is mediocre at best on 4.7 " iPhone. The Plus is so much better. I got nearly 10 hours of actually usage time on my 6s Plus yesterday. It's similar battery life to the iPad //images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/30/cc4e07937318c153117735a4b3788397.jpg

I disagree, not as good as the plus for obvious reasons, but I get around 7 hours is actual usage, not bad considering the size of the phone

 

[Guacho]

Am I the only person left who is near a charger at any point of the day or night? Why do people act like it matters more how much is left at the end of the day vs the fact that they were able to do what they wanted without the phone going dead?

OP, this isn't directed at you. But thread after thread chastising the battery life of the 6 and 6S just has me bewildered. The phone is smaller and therefore the size of the battery is too. Despite this, I get 5-7 hours of usage in between charges if I run it down to 10% from 100%. For me to expect anything more is downright unreasonable.

Perhaps I am one of the few left who doesn't view plugging my phone in as 'acceptance of failure'. If I am at my desk, I plug it in. In my car, plug it in. Not using it at home, plug it in. Going to bed? Wait for it......plug it in. And as others have suggested:

• Turn off wifi when not using so it isnt searching for availability
• Use wifi when available and cellular is weak signal
• Turn off background app refresh
• Turn down the screen brightness
• Turn email to fetch manually
• Turn location services off to save GPS tracking (unless needed)
• Reduce your streaming
• Turn off bluetooth when not in use

If all else fails and one simply MUST have all day battery life without ever needing to charge, then consider the 6S Plus.

Totally agree, even 5 to 7 hours of battery life sounds pretty decent to me, people forget how small the battery is in this phone and how much processing is running when they use it, this is no different than a laptop and i remember just a few years ago I would never get more than 4 hours with my laptop...

I don't have an outlet anywhere near me that I can use while I am working or using transportation....also when I'm out generally there's no outlets on buildings that I could use.....

You are being unreasonable with your expectations, if you need 20 hours of battery life then get a flip phone and wait for the iPhone 20... That'll do it..

How? They can simply add a bigger battery. They rather it be pencil thin though

OK.

Were you completely unaware of the dimensions of the phone? Did you miss every report on the news, at iMore, on every single tech site on the dimensions of the device BEFORE you bought it?

No. You didn't.

So WHY did you buy it?

Apple would not have gone broke if you skipped buying it.

So why, after knowing the dimensions, did you buy it?

Put it in the mophie you've already got. That would make it thicker. That would solve the thinness issue AND the battery issue.

But no, that would give you a solution and you don't WANT a solution, you just want to hear yourself talk. You just want the attention. And yes I'm giving it to you because by this time I'm honestly curious how far you are willing to take this fallacy of no outlets in the whole of New York. Because I've had to endure the best of the best trolling posts at other sites so I'm honestly curious I how far these trolling posts are going to go.

Because knowing the dimensions of a device, then buying, and then complaining about the dimensions of the device, is sheer fatuousness.
