iPhone battery criticized
Strategy Analytics has released research that shows battery life as the iPhone's most dissatisfying feature. The buyer analysis firm concluded that the most common owner of an iPhone falls into the 25-44 age group, with a $50,000+ income -- they are also likely employed full-time and over 80-percent own an iPod as well.
The report shows that the iPhone, on average, is utilized for web browsing and e-mailing much more than other smartphones, with two-thirds of the surveyed individuals using the services daily. Heavy use of the phone's web-based features leads to battery life issues, the leading cause for dissatisfaction of the surveyed customers.
The study's primary findings highlight customers' desire for Apple to continue innovating new features and improving style, while factoring in a strong need for improved battery performance.

figures don't lie,,,, but....
Do we wish that the iPhone came with a 6 year full use battery??? Of course.
But there are a number of car chargers, home chargers, and battery extenders that can be used when you do not have a charger.....
So, this is a mute point. The demographic that is used can easily afford a car charger/fm player, and $70 for the latest iPhone case that includes a battery that is twice the size of the iPhones and it charges the iPhone while its juice is being used for service..... then you can recharge both at the same time in the evening.
NO, this article is a click-c*** article that just seeks clicks.
No serious information here.
Just a thought,
