iPhone 4 and 4S

[soupladel]

Agreed, the update has not caused any improvement in my battery life and i would suspect it has not helped with anyone else other than perhaps those that saw the most extreme of battery drains.

I took my phone off charge at 11:30 last night and it was at 90% by 7:30 this morning and there was nothing active and it was not used in that time.

I also upgraded my Iphone 4 16gb and although it was not charged fully, it also drained from 30 to 20% in the same time period.

Apple have released iOS 5.0.1  (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1472) which should resolve the issue around battery life.  Just doing mine now.

Soupladel, 10% battery in 8 hours makes it 80 hours standby time.

Now that's some way off of the purported "up to 200 hours standby time" but it's not bad.

I guess if you put your phone into airplane mode and didn't touch it, that's how you'd reach the 200 hours, but yeah, 80 hours standby isn't bad.

You might say it ss not bad but it is certainly not good.

How has it been over a full day of usage?

I wasn't even experiencing problems and I've seen an improvement!

i downlaoded the new update. took the phone off charge this morning and its had 10 hrs stanby time and its on 17%. checked the odd email and spent 5-10 on the internet but in my opinion this is shockingly bad.

can i take it to apple or ask vodafone for a new one?

If you have an Apple store close by, I would take it there. They will swap it and transfer data. Better than waiting for Vodafone (if they have any in stock of course).

upgrade 5.0.1 has actually worsened my battery life..

I got white 32g 4s since 14 oct with poor battery life, complained, received a new one 1 week later, no difference.

Could be from the same batch...

its poor to say the least  80 hours stand by is not acceptable.... charging twice a day is not acceptable with moderate use...

(I dont play games or use the videoplay back, but mainly as a communication tool.. messaging, email and phone calls.)

Should I be better of going into Apple Store and try another exchange??

Has some have some succesfull experiences and actually received a better battery in return??
