if your iPhone 5 battery is draining about 1% every 4-5 minutes: i.e. 40% in 3 hours then you need to "Restore" the iPhone in iTunes and "Set up as a new iPhone" instead of "Restoring from Backup."
No issue I have 6 hrs of video time and 2 hrs of web time. Did you let your battery die out 1st before fulling changing it? I have everything on except Stocks Widget and you see I dont have any issue. If it die that fast take it back.
thank you so much. I have been bothered by the battery draining these days. When i do as you told me, problem solved. I will tell all my friends about this. Thank you once more.
I dont have any problems with this. My phone stays at 100% for about an hour after unplugging and with heavy internet and texting. Phone lasts all day with regular usage
My gf was having the same problem and we did a clean restore and we set the phone up as new and the problem is gone. If the phone keep draing make sure to get it replace ASAP.

well, i was wrong. the problem was only alleviated for less than 15 minutes. The battery is draining faster and faster. Now I want to get it replaced.
I got my iP5 friday and used and used and used in video texts calls internet just to see battery usage. It finally went down tonight at 6 pm. I was quite amazed as I have never had a iphone last like this on battery.
48+ hours and heavey usage and on initial charge yea I cant complain
After my mum got 10 hours out of her iphone 5, 6 hours stand by and 4 hours use ...
and reading some of these post's i think they might have defective units..
ill post the screen shot i got before it shut down...its at one percent and shows the time.
Hopefully you see it...im going to restore again and set up from new again and shut everything off and see if it happens again...
If So off we go to apple to get a new one...

Oh wow , that's not good . I've had never any problems with any idevices . This was me yesterday from my first charge.
Where you playing video games? Thats the only thing I can think of that will drain the battery that fast. I got over 6 hrs of netflix and hulu and 23 hours of stand by. But when I was playing Wild Blood on it I could tell the battery was going out fast, but thats normal when playing games.
I never expect cell phones or laptops to have great battery life.. its just they way it is now with current battery tech... each generation get slightly better but its never the big jump we all want.. getting a good battery case is a must have for any hard core user
just about to restore I hope it fixes my issue haha I had 11 hrs standby and 3 and a half hours usage as in txt and maybe 5 webpages and a 10 min call and its down to 37%
Just did a restore as new device and seems like its working just playing around and it's not rolling more than a % so far
