The release of Apple iPhone 5 has been a hot topic among tech geeks in the recent months. There were expectations that the upcoming iPhone should improve on its battery metrics to handle its sophisticated features. Well, I got exciting news!
We can expect a great battery life in iPhone 5 as Apple has a record of improving battery life with its every upcoming product. The iPhone 4 offers talk-time of 7 hours on 3G, 14 hours on 2G (GSM model only), and standby time of 300 hours. On the other hand, the iPhone 5 is expected to offer 14 hours of talk time on 3G, 7 hours of talk time on 4G, and standby time of 600 hours.
A common criticism hurled against previous iPhone models is the battery lives which they offered. Potential customers would love to see better and extended usage times from the new iPhone 5. If we base it on customers’ experiences, we can expect this model to offer the best battery performance of any iPhone. Every time a new model has been released, we have seen improvements. When the iPhone 4 was released, it boasted a 40 percent improvement over the iPhone 3GS. However, there are still speculations whether will see a similar trend with the battery life of iPhone 5, with its much-anticipated awesome new features.
According to the survey, done by a company called “Ask Your Target Market” (AYTM), 15 percent of iPhone users will want longer battery life. This is the number one reason why iPhone users want to upgrade to iPhone 5. It seems Apple will be happier if this willingness to buy a newer model, will motivate its consumers to really buy the iPhone 5, and will consequently be reflected in their actual sales reports.
Apple’s strict confidential policy is highly against revealing any information about its upcoming devices until it is officially announced by the company. Thus, the real information regarding the next iPhone and its real battery life are all still under cover. We are sure it’s just a matter of time before the official iPhone 5 information will be released to the mass media, with its whistles and bells! The waiting game starts now.
