iOS 6 on iPad....
I downloaded this on my iPad and as much as I like the new features, it looks like the battery is drained faster than with previous iOS. Anyone experiencing this? Yes, I do close/stop apps when I am not using them, but with the same use as with iOS 5, battery drains down faster!

iPad 1,2 or 3 Gerardo?
I'm not noticing it on my 2 at all.....then again, my wife uses it more than I, so I could be wrong...

Haven't noticed quicker battery drain, although have noticed some embedded YouTube videos on posts I can't open.
Also because I don't like the new maps, I haven't updated my iPhone to OS6.

I had this problem before the update. I finally ended up having to reset as new (per the Genius Bar rec). Solved my problem.

No change here.
Reset network settings first, might work without a total reset. Also, no need to close/stop apps on iOS. |

on my iPad2 no difference. But go check Location Services and make sure they are set the way you had them before the upgrade..

I only recently uploaded to iOS 5 and noticed an improvement on battery life. I have now gone to iOS 6 and battery life is still good.
However somewhere along the way I lost my YouTube icon. |

On my phone, I noticed battery life degrades, but got better as the various apps were updated for 6.

Off topic, but I recently downloaded the new OS for iphone 4 and now it crashes and is hung up all of the time. It's a mess.

Bit offtopic but so funny i want to share
Had pixel problems -too green display-on my ipad 2 ,check for fix on the web and ppl adviced to hammer the back slightly .i did. First became even worse than black out then a slight rubber hammering brought it back.beleive it or not the display is perfect now! The secret is the lcd cable/connectors fitted bit loose by apple ,if it gets disconnected some slapping can fix if you are lucky . Best George Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We have two iPad 2's in the house and have not noticed any difference in battery life after we upgraded to IO6 back in September...
Take it easy.....Leo

Ios6 here on an iPad 2. No battery drain issues. Don't ask me about my iPhone 4, that's a different story
