the iphone battery issue is seriously and grossly over rated. Unless I received a defective battery

I agree. I just had my 2 iPhones exchanged. The battery life is not as advertised. I got a message on the phone indicating that it needs servicing from Apple and to take it to the nearest store. I told the “Genius” what the issue was and he looked at me like he was surprised to hear what my phones were doing. I’m sure they know what’s going on, they don’t want customers to panic. Well I’m getting to that point. I’m giving my new phones one last shot. Oh, and the phone seems to get HOT for some reason, no i don’t leave it out in the sun. I love it’s features, but if the battery can’t keep up, Bye Bye iPhone , Hello version 2.o

Also had a prblem with my iPhone,
Although I love this phone and its functionality, the battery is crap, was ok the first month, after that it doesn t last for 5 hours.

I am very disappointed.

I have a first generation Iphone and several times it will just go dead - like all power was drained from the phone.

I will plug it in to charge and nothing happens. I have to wait around 24 hours before plugging it in and then it will start to charge.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? My phone also runs v.hot for some reason.
