How's your iPhone 5S battery life

[sony83]

5s better on iOS 7 or updating to iOS 8.0.3 worth it?

in my experience 5s battery time much better on ios 7 compared to ios 8

Yet another prwtty good charge. Some of this usage is just playing music with the screen off; but still, looks pretty good.

Thanks mate, won't update it then.

Here is my last charge.

Some of it towards the end was streaming radio; but still I guess that used significant battery, so I guess this is about average when having a pebble connected.

What iOS are you on? 8.1.2 or 8.1.3

Hey men! What's up? I want to ask you something: if I use "battery life" app, it says me that i have 11% battery wear level, so 11% of my battery capacity is not longer avabile. Do I have a way to bring my battery to normal conditions? Or must I buy a new battery? (iPhone 5s 16gb since almost two years)

Thats pretty good for two years.
No fixes AFAIK except replacement.

Do share the things you have learned. Don't keep us in suspense. It's impossible for me, for example, to get more than 5 h usage out of my 5S now. The battery is still ok with 96% capacity left.

Settings > General > Background App Refresh > Turn off all the apps with blue triangle/arrow points that you can, and more if possible.

Please share.

Absolutely atrocious. Have it on low power mode 24/7. Took it off charge just as I went to sleep here

 

[alitek12]

I right now was able to use it for 5:30 minutes all on LTE on a low reception area and I still have 30% left, not sure if thats good or bad. Deleting my Facebook app made a huge diffrenence. Didn't listen to music or anything like that, this is all in a low reception area.

You probably have a dead battery...

Thank you!! Some suggestions to have a long battery? Something like a charging way?

You posted to a six year old thread? Replace the battery on your phone....

 

[nlkccom]

Or better yet, replace the phone.

 

[blkjedi954]

Mine seem unable to last a day. It goes down 1% for about every 5 minutes of use. Most of my background apps needs to be closed manually. Is this normal?

Mine can’t last 4 hours. Now I let it die completely for a week. Now it won’t hold a charge!!

I doubt the OP will respond, they started this thread six years ago and havn't been active on the forum for three years. The 5S is probably long gone...

Just had Battery replaced as I use this as a second phone. After several years battery life was really bad but now it’s great
