    And the readers of 9to5Mac are the average iPhone user?  Hell no.  Those are power users.

    24 hours.  GTFO.  Are you telling me you don't charge your phone when you sleep?

    That thought was just on my mind.  Kind of like taking a political poll about Democrats and only ask Republicans to respond.

    Yeah!

    So those people don't count!!!!!!1

    You should try it. I had problem with Apple Music where the songs will keep stuttering but everything else was fine (no lag when browsing for example). Once I reset it the stream was smooth like I'm playing from local library.

    According to Apple that's only for wifi problems. This is an app problem, not a cellular network problem. I'm not on wifi: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204051

    I don't quite understand AI's own content in News. Each article lists only the opening teaser paragraph. Beyond that, to read the actual article you have to punch out (via News) to the regular AI site. I thought News would keep you inside the News app to read content in a more consistent look-and-feel across publications?

    Yup. I don't get this one bit. It's a TERRIBLE flaw.

    It happens to me half the time and I think "why the f*** am I using this app then?!"

    "I don't understand that Apple Insider is so proud and so stupid at the same time to present this news item as "BIG", because this practice is extremely bad for AI. Apple has all the cards in hand to control its news and to sell it to the biggest advertiser/publisher in the Apple News app."

    Hahaha your reading comprehension is failing. "BIG" is a company name, not an adjective.

    From the article: "Despite iOS 9 being only a few days old, Apple has already started lining up exclusive content, including an in-depth feature on star architect *Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG)* written by Andrew Rice for Wired. "

Over 90% of respondents said that they want to see Apple improve iPhone battery life, versus less than 7% saying that 'iPhone battery life and battery cases are good enough as-is.'"

     

    90% isn't exactly an "outlier".  Is iPhone battery life better than other phones?  Yes, but that still doesn't make 10 hours "acceptable".  As I recall, during the presentation a few weeks ago they touted the iPhone's 10 hours as "all day battery life".  Maybe all of one's "work day", but the last time I checked, my complete day had 24 hours in it.


     

    Really, are you seriously going to tell me this crap is "scientific"... Oh... My.

    No more scientific than you nay-sayers who are content with what you've got and just speak out because whatever Apple has currently provided is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT and the rest of us in the majority are just IDIOTS. I've spoken with MANY non-tech people who complain REGULARLY about having to recharge their phones. At least Apple gave us Low Power Mode. I'm thankful for that.
