If you're out of wi-fi range you'd be using cellular data anyway. DJ

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. ---- Holland's Boy, Bill - "Clothes make the man.

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.
