I don't really have any problem with iOS battery drain, but then I don't watch movies on them at all and also I recharge them on a daily schedule.

Very good article. Battery drain is not a problem here, if it is that's a sign to go find a dog to walk for a while. Or get some food with a sweetie (better).

Great article. My wife has noticed her battery seems to drain quicker. These tips should help us narrow it down.

I was also impressed reading about the tools they provide to their Genius Bar employees. I always forget about the Apple store option. Too many years fixing stuff on my own. The end to end customer experience that Apple provides is pretty cool.

I notice increased battery drain if I have cellphone connection turned on, so I leave it off most of the time.

I keep my screen dimmed. I noticed faster drain if my screen brightness was turned up.

I use my iPad a lot every day. I need to charge it every other day or so. That seems reasonable, I was expecting 10 hours battery life?
