I gather then, you also locked the phone once you got on the bus? If so, then figuring 25 minutes equals 10 percent of your battery would mean a little over six hours of battery life. That is better than the 4S was when it first came out, but not a big improvement either.

It was about 25 minutes, and I cleared the app switcher once I got on the bus, so nothing was needlessly running in the background and potentially draining the battery further.
