Keep in mind we will probably not get those values. All of these phones are used 'clean out the box' for these tests, with bare minimum installed or configured. Every person has a different configuration and 'use' for his/her iphone
 
Agreed, just interesting to compare the iPhone4 to other manufacturers...
 
In that light, I fully agree. I think I made the wrong assumption judging by the thread name. :)
 
I had my iPhone4 for 2 weeks, have my wireless on all the time and use 3G and data. My brightness is set to about 50%. I took the phone off charge at 5am, used Nike+ for 1 hour, usual Wifi and phonecalls during the day and sit after 6 1/2 hours of usage at 73% battery left. With heavy usage I make it to about 10% by 5pm. Not really great battery life, but otherwise good phone.
 
Hi guys

I just received my iphone a few weeks back and i am on 4.2.1
any recommendations to get the most out of my battery?

i have switched off PUSH, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and 3G, but get around 4h30minutes of usage

any help would be much appreciated
 
Which iPhone is it - is it a jailbroken and unlocked iPhone by any chance? There is an issue with hacktivated iPhones.
 
Well 4h30 min of really intensive usage (games) makes sense, you should get like 7-10hours wifi surfing on it.

Auto-brightness and just around half brightness is where I usually keep my display settings.
 
Is anyone still having this problem?
I got my iphone last week and upgraded to 4.3.1 and the battery life is terrible, I'm talking dropping 10% overnight while I'm sleeping.
No apps running, no push email etc.
 
I noticed with 4.3.1 that Google Maps and any GPS enabled application seems to drain battery despite the app being backgrounded. This was not the case before 4.3.1 - there seems to be an update coming out in the next few weeks. Uncertain if it addresses this problem though.
 
My battery also seems a bit bad.

Full charge last night around 10PM - this morning it is on 53% with a fair amount of use. Just emails and browsing.

Does that sound excessive?
