Is it my imagination?


Is this my imagination, or is iOS6 more power-hungry than 5 was?

I'm not sure, but there seems to be a constant charging of iPods chez Kite these days.

My cousin owns galaxy s 3
He is phone modder.
He makes and install custom roms
He ones tols me that one of his rom is consuming a lot of battery because it runs unnecessary apps randomly in background due to bug,also his network remained bad.and also new jellybean rom is giving almost the same effect.
You should wait to see the bugs in new roms and os(s) before installing them,now you could only wait for ios6.0.01 or something newer

Yep, I had to turn pretty much everything off and turn the brightness down super low to keep my 3gs running all day!

Even browsing reddit can kill it. :P

Maybe the latter is just your 3gs trying desperately to protect your intelligence? :->

Yes, it seems that we mere IPod users are suffering the same as the iPhone users.

Bit of a PITA.
