Will Apple fix the battery drainage problems with ios 7.1.2?

I just bought the iphone 5S 16Gb space grey with ios 7.1.1 pre installed. The thing that i noticed & bothers me is the huge battery drain. I have to charge 3-4 times in a day. The battery even drains if my iphone is on standby mode. I restored to ios 7.1.1 again & again, recalibrated my battery but still no luck. I've googled this problem & most iphone 5 & 5S users complain of this, so will apple fix this problem in the upcoming ios 7.1.2? And when will it be released? Im afraid of damaging my iPhone because of excessive charging.

iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1.1

You bought a lemon, as far as I know, if it is a new 5S the IOS would be 7.0.4 and you would need to update to 7.1.1, I haven't seen a 5S preinstalled with 7.1.1.


As already stated take it back to the shop and get your money back, and then buy a phone from an Authorized Apple dealer.
