Hi Anthony, It is difficult to compare the battery life on these devices since an iPhone 4S or, for that matter, any iPhone, will never get as much battery life as an iPod Touch or iPad simply because it's a cell phone which constantly communicates with cell towers etc. If you were to put an iPhone into airplane mode which means you turn off all radios, you get probably very similar battery life out of it. As for the iPad, it again would depend whether it's a 3G/LTE version of just a WiFi version, in order to compare battery life with an iPod Touch you would have to compare it with a WiFi only version of the iPad Mini and, of course, you have to compare it the same way. For example, if you had a fully charged iPod with WiFi turned off and you then start music playing, lock the device and never touch it, your music would play for as much as 40 hours (I believe that is Apple's claim). If you were playing movies with screen brightness set high and if maybe you were even streaming the movies from Netflix via WiFi, you may only get 8 hours.
This is sort of like comparing how far you could travel with a particular car on one tank of gas. If you were driving across the prairies at a steady 60 miles an hour you could go a lot further than if you were crossing a mountain range in the same car where you have to slow down, speed up, climb steep hills and so on. And by comparing an iPod Touch to an iPhone 4S this would actually be equivalent to comparing a car and a truck and of course the truck will use more fuel just as the iPhone requires more power. I suggest you read the specs about these products at www.apple.com as they do mention battery life for their devices.
