After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
I'm currently sitting at 2 hr, 48 min usage with 8 hr, 52 min standby. You must be mindful though that not all usage is the same. Listening to music stored on your phone for an hour with the screen off is less taxing than watching YouTube or gaming for an hour.
I will say this, the battery life is great! I'm a pretty heavy user and can make it through a day easy. That's hours on the phone, some YouTube, a few games, and a lot of texting. It's the best battery in any phone I've had, and I've had a LOT of phones!
