iPhone has good standby battery because they have controlled multi-tasking.

They only allow these basic process running in the background for apps:
1. VoIP (etc.. viber)
2. Apple Push Notification
3. Audio / One instance only. (no overlap from different apps)
4. Airplay

all other multi-task will be forced to terminate in 30 secs or so once app terminate or standby.

While android allows all multi-task to go on even without user's permission. Plus each app have to implement their own push notification (compared to just one from apple)... all of which is very stressful on the phone's radio (wifi/3g/4g etc). They also retain all recent apps in memory, which might use internet connection as well.. but this allows very fast app launches.

Why did Samsung put the gs3 mini on the market? Its because most people run after the gs3, and then the screen is too big. And please, this is iphone forum....we guys dont do your forum. Therefore, leave us alone.......we are not jealous of u and not insecure on our own produt. Look at the samsung forums....a lot more complaints than here....to come to our forum and discredit our product is because you cant talk sense in your own forum....

                  iphone have good standby battery life compare to android.

                  android have better usage time then iphone.

                  When you are young, and like to tweak your phone.. play around.. android is good. But when you old.. got children .. tired .. work alot of stuff from life.. iphone best.

                        I've already posted this. My daughter's iphone5 lasts 5 days with normal use (no gaming) and over a day of heavy use. I have a screenshots to prove it. If you gimme an email I can send them to you. Give it some 10 full cycles of battery full fill-drain 2% to 100% and back to 2% and so on. You will see the difference in about two weeks. It has better battery then Samsung galaxy 2 or 3 and Sony Xperia S. however, 4S is somewhat better (perhaps due to a smaller screen).
