I have an android that's just over two years old. The battery is not replaceable and I do have to recharge it during the day either while driving, with a portable battery pack, or when I'm at home. It's time to get a new phone.

Paul,

My iPhone 5 S is almost two years old, and lasts before recharging about 2 days. If I were you, I would go into your Apple store, and they do a special test on it. This happened on my iPad, and they tested it, and then showed me some battery saving tricks. A

Close to two years and I use the fire out of mine. It starts waning after a year and I add a battery pack and have to result in a midday recharge or car boost in the afternoon. After this all starts getting on my nerves I just give in and go get a new battery and start over.

Paul, probably about six to eight hours. The phone is three years old and it is an iPhone.

My newish iphone 6+ seems lasting for a long time. But I have brightness down and no vibration.

Not long enough. I have an iphone5 and the battery life is terrible. I usually charge it twice a day.

I have a Galaxy Note 3 which is a phablet, meaning a BIG screen (so it can be power hungry). I worked on the settings and with normal use I get at least a day and a half from the battery. It's about 2 years old.
