fineleg Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Seems like a lot circulating about this iPhone 4S (or iOS5) battery drain issues? Any new (proud :winky:) owners of iP 4S have any experiences to share about battery drain issue?
fineleg Posted October 30, 2011 Author Posted October 30, 2011 g: Some iPhone users claim that their devices only last for a few hours, at best, even when they aren't being used to a great degree. That's a far cry from the promised 200 hours of total standby time listed on the iPhone 4S spec sheet. "My battery life was extremely poor - 10% drop in standby every hour. I noticed that the usage figure was roughly half that of standby, even when the phone was not being used, so I assumed something was crashing or running in the background," wrote one iPhone 4S user to the Guardian. "I switched off all the new features including Siri and location services, but it was still really poor. I also tried setting up a clean phone with no apps but it is still really poor." So what's the official word? There isn't one just yet. Apple engineers have been contacting iPhone 4S users to inquire about their device use, even going so far as to have some users install diagnostics tools on their devices – the results of which will be sent back to Apple for analysis.
fineleg Posted October 30, 2011 Author Posted October 30, 2011 Battery-gate? Apple engineers are contacting some iPhone 4S owners to try to solve problems with battery life on the new device, after some people have seen dramatic drops in longevity compared to previous models. One owner has told the Guardian that Apple contacted him directly and asked him to install a monitoring program on the phone to try to diagnose the problem, which is so far unexplained.
