Found the following great article directly from Apple regarding batteries on
iDevices:
http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
Maximum Battery Life:
iPhone 5 offers up to 8 hours of talk time on 3G, 8 hours of Internet use on
3G, 10 hours of Internet use on Wi-Fi, 10 hours of video playback, or 40
hours of audio playback on a full charge at original capacity. In addition,
iPhone 5 features up to 225 hours of standby time.
Charge Cycles:
A properly maintained iPhone battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its
original capacity at 400 full charge and discharge cycles. You may choose to
replace your battery when it no longer holds sufficient charge to meet your
needs.
Let It Breathe:
Charging your iPhone while in certain carrying cases may generate excess
heat, which can affect battery capacity. If you notice that your iPhone gets
hot when you charge it, take it out of its case first.

The battery in your iPhone is not a user replaceable battery. It needs to
be a shop job. I've known a few people to have batteries replaced. Apple
recommends you charge your battery fully and then let it run down and repeat
the cycle several times. This usually gets your battery status to sort of
reset it's self. Many batteries do not need to be replaced only reset.

Hi,
Just for refference to myself, if my IPhone battery would ever need to be
replaced can I do it myself? or should I take it somewhere and have it done.
Thanks.
