Any concern to ring apple ?

Hi is there any concern to ring Apple about my battery on my new iPhone 6 ?


Usage = 1 hour and 33 mins
Standby = 13 hours 28 mins

72% battery left on the phone.

Brightness about 45%

No

At least post a screenshot from the battery usage page.

Yes, ring them.

Ring them to congratulate them on improving the battery life markedly on the new phones. Mine's equally impressive.

 

[baz178]

No

So would you say that was about right for a iPhone 6 ? Charge my phone before I go to bed then is beside me all night before I start using it next morning.

How do I upload a screen shot ?

Use www.imgur.com and use the BB code link.

Press the power and home button simultaneously, to take a screenshot.

Now upload it using Imgur, and copy the Forum BB code link


Question: Why not charge the phone whilst you sleep?

It's similar to mine, which took a couple of days to settle down. There seems to be a lot of background processing for spotlight etc that takes place in the first couple of days if you restore from a backup.

Then again YMMV, as it depends on the signal strength in your area. Low signal strength causes the phone to put more power into the radio draining the battery quicker.

Screenshot? Try Dropbox, upload it to the public folder and copy the link.

Won't let me do it on my phone due to poor signal at work.

I'd say 6hrs usage with 24hrs standby is about average.

Given you're on Safari and playing a game, that's right on the money. No worries.

If it's fighting to get a signal all day that will drain your battery more than having a constant signal.

If you use iMessage and Face Time, you can save the radio system from wasting the battery search for 3G/4G service by enabling Airplane Mode and then re-enabling WiFi as this turns off the cellular radio system.

Set call forwarding to desk/home phone too if possible.

Nail. Head.
