I am currently using a new iPhone 4s that was a replacement for another new iP4s that was exchanged because of horribly bad battery life. Well...this one is almost as bad, even after following every protocol I've found here and on other boards that claim to minimize and even cure the issue altogether. I even wasted my time on an app called "Carat" which tells you absolutely nothing at all except what apps are using the most juice...and that's something even a non-brain surgeon like me can figure out pretty much!
This phone, like the one before it, was loaded with the latest 5.1.1 OS update...and both were/are showing to be connected with AT&T's new LTE "4G" network. The iP4 & iP4s I have had in the past were both only connected with the "3G" network and both seemed to have at least twice the battery life these two "new" phones do.
So, is AT&T's new LTE "4G" network to blame? Is it, along with the latest 5.1.1 OS guilty of being the power hog, and not the phone itself?
I'd be interested to see how other AT&T iP4s users feel...as well as from some Verizon users as to how their providers LTE network is when it comes to battery life.
