As clichéd as it may sound, the truth is, love it, hate it, there's absolutely no ignoring 'i't. The iPhones have always bragged about their brilliant hardware, and the fluid OS on board, but more often than not, their battery life leaves a lot to be desired. Some problems that are software-related, are usually taken care of with the frequent firmware updates for the phones, but the problem hugely lies with the battery itself, which just doesn't seem to have enough juice to power it through a day. While most users won't really have much of a problem with the battery life, it is the ardent gamers, the ones who enjoy surfing the Internet for long hours on their phones, and use their phones as their personal 'i' theater, who would really feel the pinch of the miserly battery. What further adds to their woes, is the fact that the iPhones have a non user-replaceable battery, which means you don't have the option of carrying a spare battery in case your phone dies on you. But not all hope is lost, here are some real simple tips to save on the precious battery of your beloved iPhone. Some of the main causes for your iPhone battery draining out quickly are stated below, along with some simple workarounds to make it last longer. Apart from these factors, there are a lot of things that affect the battery life of your phone, like camera usage, frequent retrieval of email, and the amount of time you spend listening to music. Always use genuine accessories for your phone, and install the software updates released by the company from time to time for your phone; these would help to save on the battery. If however, your iPhone isn't all too old, and barely makes it through the day of moderate use on a single charge, you might want to take it to the dealer and have it looked at. Although they say, 'with great power comes great responsibility', for your iPhone, responsible use will make sure that you remain 'in power' for longer.
