iPod Touch 5th generation battery on ios 7

I have a iPod touch 5th generation (space grey it came with ios 7) and I was just wondering what the average battery life is. Mine seems to be setting the trend of 4-4 1/2 hours (playing games), and about 7 hours using music, streaming, and browsing. Is this about the average?

iPod touch, iOS 7.0.4, 5th generation

Sounds about right.😟 What I have seen is this... on standby the battery will go for days, provided you never use the fool thing, just leave it on. Listening to music from you library with the screen mostly off and wifi and Bluetooth turned off, easily 20 plus hours. BUT, start streaming, gaming (gaming really ***** the power), browsing, anything that keeps the screen on and in motion or keeps your iPod looking for a signal... a few hours between charges is all you get! I always have a charger nearby. Good luck.

Ya, its the average. But u can check the battery by using these steps

1. open wifi

2. set the timer 4 hours

3. go to setting>general>password lock> lock time> never

4. open facebook,twitter,youtube etc. for 4 hours

5. After 4 hours see the battery bar on ur ipod 5g


I tested it out on my ipod touch 5g(ios7.0.4) its seem to have 4 hours on Facebook countinously.
