Mine is considerably worse now. I went into pizza hut tonight with 100% battery. We were in there like an hour and a half and when I checked my phone when leaving it was at 88%. It was in my pocket the entire time.

As I'm typing this I'm at 64% with 4hrs and 3 minutes of very light usage. 1 hr of screen on time...

These posts are just silly and unnecessary. The two of you above me? Our phones are setup completely different, with different apps, syncs, settings, etc.

How long has kitkat been out? Give it a few days. Posts like this pop up with EVERY single android update since android has been around.

My battery life is great - as always.

I have never had any issues with my phones having battery struggle and this is my 5th android phone. That is why I posted the question because it was very bizarre for me not to have great battery life. I was simply asking the question to see if anything has been said about an update or some type of fix other than the typical "battery saving" answers
