Yesterday I decided to run a battery test on my iPhone. Before unplugging it that morning I did the following:

Turned off 3G
Lowered the brightness a little (Around 30% bright)
Turned off auto-brightness
Turned off Push
Turned off Wifi

I had the following settings on during the rest of the day:

Location Services
Fetching hourly 2 emails <gmail and mobile me>)

I used 3G for a total of 35 minutes to navigate some webpages then turned it off
Listened to music for around a 1 hour in total
Played Ocarina for around 25 minutes (with wifi on to transmit my playing skills:p)
Talked on the Phone for around 1 and 1/2 hours (On Edge)
Texted around 40 messages before reaching 10% message and here are my results:

I just wish to know, is that good battery life or is it below average? Thanks for reading and for your comments:)
 
I left 3G and Location and WiFi on all-day and achieved 5 hours usage and 10 standby. I am happy with that as I made it through my day with 50% battery still remaining.
