I bet you know alot people complaint about the battery life in their iPhone, especially iPhone 4S that running iOS 5. It has been more than a couple of weeks now but Apple refused to comment on the situation, until now.
However apple has admit the problem and promise to release a software update in a few weeks to solve the issue. In addition, Apple already included iOS 5.0.1 beta to developers. On version 5.0.1, battery life will be improved. In addition, multitasking gestures in the first generation iPad, resolved bugs with documents in the Cloud, improved voice recognition for Australian users using dictation and other security improvements also included.
