Battery Life on iPhone 5 with IOS 7.0.2

Hi all,
What's the average battery life on iPhone after the upgrade to IOS 7.0.2?
I tried to put my phone (with 100% full battery) on Airplane Mode before I went to bed (around 11pm).
When I checked my phone at 6.30am in the morning, it's only 1% battery left --> 7 hours on Airplane Mode???
The next night, I put my phone on standby mode (Wifi on, Location Services Off, Bluetooth Off, 3G/4G off) same time (11ish)
Next morning at 7am, 5% battery left --> 8 hours on standby with just Wifi On.
I found it a bit weird because before the IOS 7 upgrade, if I put my phone on Airplane Mode, it will last for more than a day.
Wondering if any of you guys has the same issue with the battery?
Thanks.

I received an iPhone 5 for Christmas and had an iPhone 4.S previously which had no battery issues at all.  The new phone is diabolical in terms of battery life.  I have done all the things that people recommend on here to try and extend the battery life but to no avail.  Just sitting overnight with nothing running in the background drains the battery considerably.   What else can I do?   I have AppleCare on this phone so the people there offer to replace the phone for me BUT the replacement phone does not arrive in a new box and the respresentative was very fuzzy about the fact he would/could not assure me I would receive a brand new phone in its' box.  He just kept saying it will be a 'replacement phone' which is totally unacceptable as this phone is unlocked so we paid full price for it.   The phone is not reliable - whilst out for a full day's ski-ing (I was not ski-ing, just hanging around!) and using the phone for very light Internet browsing and only a few short e-mails, the battery just drained away in front of my eyes so I had to turn it off completely as I have no car charger yet and certainly had not thought to take my electrical charger with me (we won't even talk about the stupidity of making the new charger not fit my other Apple products (three of them!).
I really am so disappointed and don't know what to do next.   As BCCconvert asks, what can we do???  thanks for any help offered.

  • Battery Life on 4S with iOS 5.0.1

    Just bought a new 4S (White) and with only 3 calls made all day of 10mins each and no particularly extraordinary use, my battery went from 100% at 9AM to 25% at 6PM.
    Anyone else seen rapid battery decline?

    I have since day one, i thought the ios 5.0.1 would fix this issue but it hasn't.
    this morning I had my phone charged to 100% and i looked at the usage in the settings and it has 6 hours of usage, 13 hours of standy  and it is at 6% at this moment.
    Overall i am very dissapointed since this phone is supposed to have a longer battery life compared to the previous iphones..

  • One User's Story: iOS 7.1 and Battery Life on iPhone 5

    I've been reading the messages from folks that have experienced shorter battery life after upgrading to iOS 7.1. It does appear that there is a real problem with some iPhone 5S models. Some of those users are reporting a shorter battery life along with warm iPhones (when the iPhones weren't doing anything) and repeatedly "coming to life" with the lockscreen slider multiple times after being put asleep.
    In my case, the day after upgrading to iOS 7.1 I noticed that my iPhone 5 (not 5S) went from about 90% battery to 55% battery overnight--with no apps open. And since iOS 7, I've disabled background app updates, disabled location services for all but about 4 apps, disabled motion, etc. I also tend to never leave any apps open when I'm done for the day. Anyway, during the second night, my phone went from 40% to about 35%. I suspected that iOS 7.1 may have affected the battery calibration but perhaps not the actual life between charges.
    I then turned on the phone, set it to not sleep, and let it completely use up the battery charge and to turn itself off. It took a very long time--more evidence of a calibration issue. I then completely charged the phone. Since then, it appears that not only is the battery calibration correct again, but the actual battery life might be a little longer after iOS 7.1. I'm now seeing about an 8% to 10% drop in battery charge overnight which is what I had before iOS 7.1.
    I'm not saying that users who are reporting decreased battery life are wrong. I can only report my own experience.

    I love all the Tips out there to save Battery life, turn this off turn this down when the bottom line is you shouldnt have to turn anything off or down because those things are why you bought an Apple iPhone, how about Apple fixes there crap right the 1st time instead of ripping us off,
    And another thing Apple should reveal there iPhone 6 on what the heck there going to release , whats with all this bullcrap all the time that its a big secret....
    Im really getting sick of this Company...

    I hv iPhone with ios 6.0.2

    How can I upgrade to ios 7?
    Help pls

    I agree- I apologize if I sounded skeptical and attacking. In no way did I mean it to sound that way.
    I completely agree on the software-hardware combo issue- this is why apple killed off 1G and 2G devices- because newer software revisions would never ever run well if at all on such ancient devices. can you imagine running iOS 6 on an iPhone/iPod touch 1G? That would be terrible. Let alone iOS 3 runs terrible on them and now are generally rendered useless due to newer App Store requirements (most require 4.3+ now to allow apple to kill off the older devices). forcing newer software on older hardware (apple, dell, HP,... Anything electronic this definitely applies to) will almost always yield less-than-par results. The other part is apple forcing you to upgrade by means of intentially making things obsolete. all companies do that.
    All of this factual info aside, the issue at hand with the 5 is not a software-hardware combo problem- those are most widely seen with the major revisions. then again, this isn't the first time apple has gotten caught up in battery drain snafus (even iOS 5 was plagued with this as well- and now there are some people desperate to roll back but can't). it basically waters it down to the point where keeping the stock software will always yield the best results even though newer versions provide better features- it all depends on whether or not the person deems the added features are worth a performance hit.
    PS. I'm still at 100%- and I've been using it periodically throughout the day. your combo worked for you, but didn't for me. And may or may not work for others- As the tech world would say, mileage may vary.
    PSS. What model/carrier do you have? Just wondering.

  • Battery vampire on iPhone 4 iOS 4.3.3

    Subject: Battery Drainage on iPhone 4 (ios 4.3.1) Help Please
    Have 2 iPhone 4's (mine-32gb & wifes-16gb), both were running very well all the way till ios 4.2.1, until I updated both phones to ios 4.3, all different kind of problems started, the worst is battery drainage, wifi keeps flactuating between 2 and 3 bars,which ive never experianced before - even while being right next to the router.
    gsm signal keeps dropping and goes to search, ever so often, so did a complete factory reset as new phone, which didnt help, then waited till ios 4.3.1, which slightly improved the gsm, but wifi and battery drain is still problem, so did a complete reset as new phone in itunes on both phones, that had no effect at all, then went to Apple genius bar, they confirmed that the reset they do and the one we do at home is slightly different, so i gave the go ahead on both phones, they also asked me to discharge battery then put on charge, which i did, but the battery is still draining rapidly. I really have no idea whats going on. and I can confirm that there are no additional apps or any change to settings since I had the ios 4.2.1, I have also tried deleting mail switch off and re-appling the mail, also network reset, and both home and on/off switch reset, still having problems, basically I ve tried everything that have been suggested, including switching off ping. Is there any one having tried this and still having problems and if they have managed to sort it out, kindly share it with us, Ive noticed too many people are still having this issue, even though some are saying there is an improvement with ios 4.3.1. In my case its made it alot worse, please help, thanks

  • Amazing Battery Life: Miracle iPhone?

    Yesterday, I returned my four-day old iPhone 3G (8GB) due to various issues (orientation changes, slow performance, etc.). I replaced it with a 16GB. The phone has been operating flawlessly (as far as I can tell), but one thing which has left me breathless:
    The battery life!
    <post edited by host>
    I really think this phone is nothing short of a miracle. What's different about this phone!?

    Wow, did you bring that off topic.
    As to my battery life -- it has been awesome.
    I use the phone all day, and recharge it every night. I have wifi enabled all the time, and 3G enabled all the time. I am in a strong 3G signal area and have never seen it go to Edge in my town (although it does while traveling). I do NOT use mobileme to fetch or sync anything, except a manual To-Do list sync with iDisk a couple times a day. I play the iPod for about 2 hours each day, make about a half hour of calls, check a few items on the net during the day, and send about 20 texts. I check my e-mail every 15 minutes.
    At the end of the day, my black 16 GB iPhone is still between 1/3 and 1/2 full. It has had zero battery problems.
    If I leave it unplugged overnight, there is still the same 1/3 to 1/2 full battery charge remaining.
    I am not sure why some people are having problems, and some are not. I am not sure why some people are having battery leakage overnight. I see zero change in amount of charge remaining when the phone is not in use.
    I have never turned it off to conserve battery, just put it in sleep mode. I reboot once a day to acquire a clear GSM signal as I have done with every GSM phone I have ever had.
    I've never missed a notifacation or phone call. I have never not gotten the ringtone or SMS notification to sound when something is coming in.
    Clearly, there is some quality control stuff affecting a small number of iPhone users (and they all, of course, head here to the forum first before just exchanging their phones)....but I have to admit my battery life on the iPHone 3G is better than any battery life I got with comperable usage on the ATT TIlt, or the ATT Blackjack. It's possibly the same as that with my old 1st Gen iPhone.
    I am sure Apple will need to address the battery issue, since there seem to be enough people reporting problems. A firmware fix with the next update will fix the battery meter -- there were some battery meter problems with the 1st Gen as well that were fixed relatively quickly.
    But I absolutely am not sure where the reports of 4 -5 hours of battery life are coming from. Mine easily goes 10 hours or so with plenty charge remaining.

    Assuming you are using the current version of iTunes (11,2,2), open iTunes, click "Preferences" under the leftmost entry on iTunes' menu, then choose "Devices".
    Find the iPhone's backup there, highlight it, and choose "Delete Backup".

    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you've noticed issues after updating to iOS 7.0.2, you may want to first update to iOS 7.0.3 which was recently released.
