Q: iPhone 6 Plus battery
I just bought a brand new iPhone 6 Plus 2 days ago and I did a full Battery cycle from 0% to 100% and i barely get over 8hrs of light usage with most location services/background refresh disabled while my friends can get past 1 day easily. Am i doing something wrong? Will the battery improve over time with constant charges?
