Iphone 4s Battery life WORSE with upgrade. Anyone else seeing same?

I upgraded my new iPhone 4s today and now my battery life is so much worse. I can literally watch it drain by the minute. Is anyone else experiencing this?

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1

I updated it to 5.0.1 last night, and this morning had a test after 100% battery charged. But what I saw was the battery problem wasn't solved, and it was even worse. I was on Safari and Settings for 20 mins, battery drops 14%. This was worse than 5.0 when I was using Battery Doctor Pro supporting my 4s. I haven't used restoring after the update, but I will try to see if it will solve the problem. But at the moment, 5.0.1 is so disappointing.

Did the 5.01 update OTA, turned my phone on at 7:00am...wifi is active and I get tons of email with and audible and vibrating alert...


Started at 100% at 7:00am, as I type this battery is down to 84% with no phone calls made just a little browsing and email...wifi active...


Is this a little better than what I was experiencing prior to the update? Yes.... But...
