Hi
My parents bought me an iPhone 5 for Christmas and I have found that the battery life on it is very poor. I have had no phone since October after I dropped my BlackBerry in the bath so I was looking forward to this iPhone (I knew I was getting it)
It is losing up to 20% of power in as little as 25 minutes. Although I do text and play music a lot, I don't think it should be losing this much power in such a short amount of time.
I also have an iPod Touch 4th Gen, iPad 1 and iPad 4 and I play a lot of music, use lots of apps and internet on there too (especially iPod) but they don't lose this much power.
When I turned the phone on yesterday, a software update was immediately available, to fix a bug impacting Wi-Fi. So I installed the update and then started to use the phone.
Does anybody else have any problems with the iPhone 5 battery life or is it just me?
The phone is on a pay monthly contract with O2 if this is relevant.
What should I do?
Thanks
