iPhone 4S: Is Siri Causing Our Battery Drainage


While we've enjoyed our new iPhone 4S, we're not pleased with the state of the battery life.  We haven't done a scientific study but we've certainly noticed the faster battery drain with the new iPhone as compared to other iPhone models and maybe, it's because of the Siri feature?  Siri is the voice assisted feature available only for iPhone 4S users.

Turning off Bluetooth doesn't work. So we're left to ponder if this new feature is the culprit. We don't believe it's a hardware issue. We updated to the latest iOS on our old iPhone 4 and haven't experienced this sort of issue show up. Perhaps there's an imminent update soon to resolve this. Until then, we suggest you use an extra charger or bring along a USB cable with you.
