3 day battery life :)

I have always loved the iPad's battery life. My 9.7 Pro on iOS 9 is getting 13-14 hours of screen on usage with light use (not that light, not iBooks that almost doesn't use battery, not background music, but no heavy games and 20% brightness) just web browsing, maybe a little Netflix and a light game.
I usually get around 12 hours of usage over 2-3 days of standby on my 6th Gen iPad.
Seems like pretty typical iPad battery results. Apple says 10 hours, but without excessive processor intensive tasks like gaming or video editing, I’ve always found that to be a modest estimate.

Not once my iPad has lasted 10 hours. Always more, and if it gets close (11-12) it's because of some heavy game.
