It's been almost 2 weeks since Apple released iOS 9.3 beta 3, so I guess we can share our battery life on B3 here.
I know there's already others topics about B3, but none of them specifically about battery.

I guess it got better.

This is what I could get out of my 5S.

Same as me on my 5S - consistently getting 7-8 hours real usage, and 2 days standby.

Pretty good so far on 6s. No Low Power Mode.

How long did you use Low Power Mode? I got around the same on my 5s without Low Power Mode.

I only used it in the last 20% of battery left.
But that's not the best battery life my 5S saw. On 8.3 it used to last longer, about 8-9 hours. Hope it gets even better in the final release.

I have a 6+ and I get half that. But also depends what you do on your phone. Consistent music playing can extend usage by a long shot.
Me too. I get 7 hours max on my 6+ before the beta it was 9-11 hours. I will fresh install when the gm comes out but I usually can't make one full day without recharge.

My 6S Plus has been just fine. I went on a three day vacation and between GPS, camera, Siri and Maps almost constantly I only had to charge once a day. It's been a trooper, I also have automatic in my car so my phone is always using my location.
