Submission + - Testing iOS 5 & iPhone 4S Battery Life
An anonymous reader writes: Recently Apple users have complained about shorter battery life on their new iPhone 4S devices, which may actually be a problem with how the new iOS 5 uses GPS to set time zones. While Apple is currently looking into the issue, PCMag's Sascha Segan ran his own tests to see if there was a difference. Taking a Verizon iPhone 4 running iOS 4, an AT&T iPhone 4 running iOS 5, and a Sprint iPhone 4S, all three phones were setup up with no accounts pushing, Bluetooth off and location services on, and the screen on maximum brightness. As the results rolled in, it turns out that there isn't much difference in battery life between the three devices.
