iOS 6.1 Battery Life

I upgraded to iOS 6.1 a few hours ago and I must say that my iPhone 5 (previously running iOS 6.0.2) is getting insane battery life. I have been using my iPhone for almost 45 minutes, standy for 2 hours and the iPhone is still at 100%. This is just crazy. I will continue to test tomorrow when at work and see what I get all day.


What is everyone else seiing?

My 3gs is the best after update, very improves battery life and ultra fast i can believe how a 2009 device can do it so well. More than 1% per hour standing by means you have a problem with some app. Try System activity monitor in appstore and find wich process is accessing your cpu and killing your battery in multi task. A must for everybody.

I have the effect that since the update my iPhone battery Life is horrible.


Checking the useage statistic gives the Strange info


1.59 hours useage

1.59 hours standby


Now at 23%


So for whatever reason the phone seems to be "always on" resulting in such Short battery Life.


Any idea how to fix that?

Better life? I have had a similar first impression after the upgrade. Overnight, it would drain about 5-6% of the total even if I turned all off but the cellular voice linkup. This morning, 8 hours after the upgrade fiesta and with Cellular/Cellular Data/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth on (just no Locarion Services), I still had 100% on the gauge! Woo hoo!!
