Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't SIRI actually send the audio input to
voice recognition servers?
That being the case; turning off WI-FI will cause any additional SIRI
commands to be sent over the mobile network and could result in additional
network access charges. Point is, if you plan on using SIRI to any extent
you probably do not want to disable WI-FI.

Subject: Re: battery drainage
The two biggest drains on the iPhone are the Bluetooth radio and WI_FI..
It's easy to tell Siri, turn bluetooth off and she'll say I turned Bluetooth
off. Do the same with WI_FI. Those are the two biggest battery drains. So
if you have no ear peace connected to Bluetooth and your away from your home
network, you don't need the WI_FI either. And, it can quickly be turned
back on again when need be.

Hi
Of course it's true that some apps use more power than others, but if a
phone is draining, then the most obvious explanation is that one app or
another is using the power and it's just an easy thing to eliminate.
In Mavericks, the battery menu shows you which apps are using significant
amounts of power. If there is a similar thing in IOS7, I haven't found it
yet.
Reducing screen brightness is a really good one too. I always thought it
counter-intuitive that the screen curtain didn't reduce power use, but
them's the breaks.
I have absolutely no authority to back this up, but I am convinced I
noticed a reduction in power usage on my 5s after I locked the screen
orientation.
