Device: iPad, iPhone, K3 & Amazon - between them they cover my needs.
Don't make/receive many calls on mine either, probably 20mins of talktime per day, but I'll listen to 4 or 5 hours of podcasts or music, Bluetooth and WiFi always on, push email always on, screen at ~35% with auto-brightness on & auto-lock after 1 minute. End of the day the battery's typically at around 50%, so I charge it every couple of day or so. It's rarely switched off, just put into flight mode overnight.

Might be worth trying a hard reset - press & hold the home and power buttons until you see the Apple logo, then release and let it restart. Or if your iPhone's relatively new perhaps calibrate the battery by running it right down - literally until it shuts itself down , not just until it shows 1% remaining - and do a full charge overnight. This made a big difference to my new iPad.
