Battery is excellent overall. I can get a couple of days from it without a charge with casual use outside of my work location. I'm on Sprint service without LTE (just 3g) so you have to make sure if this is your case that you have the network mode set to CDMA only, or else you will experience poor battery life. Same holds true if your in an area with poor coverage, it's constantly looking for a connection and this is a battery drain on any device. At work, I'm in the lower levels of the bldg and the facility has its own Verizon tower and I can not get a connection without setting the phone to roam. Despite this and having all of the bells and whistles set to on with frequent syncing, I still have about 60% battery left after 10 hrs. My old iphone 4s died withing 5-6 hrs under the same conditions.
This phone provides the best battery life I've experienced on any phone.
