My experience is that using "Airplane Mode" at least doubles battery life.

I rarely put on wifi, only to download books.

I had the same problem with the original Kindle Fire, never with the Galaxy Tabs, iPad or cell phones. The S3 and S4 consume power with GPS and streaming, not with wifi on. |

I never go to Settings to turn wifi on, if I select a word and press Wikipedia, PW will ask: "Turn off Airplane mode", press it and wifi is on. Same if one selects Kindle store or whatever needs wifi. I just wish wifi would then turns itself off after I am done. |
