I sort of compare turning bluetooth off with letting your car idle at a red light or shutting down the engine, not enough drain to worry about it. If I charge my iPhone to 100% so it says “on AC power” and then unplug it say t 10 PM at night, then lock it and don’t use it until 6 in the morning and I don’t put it in airplane mode with both WiFi and bluetooth on I lose maybe 3 or 4% in those 8 hours. Again, that is with the phone locked and me not using it at all. I haven’t tried this with bluetooth off, but what if it makes a 1% or even 2% difference over 8 hours? If bluetooth isn’t being actually used to play to a bluetooth headset or speaker, type on a bluetooth keyboard etc. it uses a totally minimal amount of battery. Now, if you don’t have an Apple Watch, you hardly ever use a bluetooth keyboard or bluetooth headset or speaker, you never use Airdrop and so on then sure, why not turn it off and leave it off except for the occasional time when you may want to use it. But if you end up using it a few times a day then to me it’s not worth having it turned off.

The question is: if I leave Bluetooth on all the time, does it really considerably drain a device's battery considerably or not? In IOS 10 and below, when I finished with the Bluetooth I disabled it in control center. Now though, with IOS 11 Apple did that thing where when you switch Bluetooth off in the control center, it still remains on. So lately, am getting a little fed up with: either asking Siri, to turn it off, or settings, bluetooth, equals off. Hence why I'm considering just leaving it on but wanted to know if by doing so has any serious effect on battery life.
