Obviously not scientific: I've experienced slightly longer battery life on my iPhone 3G since upgrading to iOS 4. I do vanilla stuff like checking info on the Internet and checking e-mail. I've never used the video or music features, so I dunno how those would affect battery life on the old firmware vs. new.

my 3gs had the same battery life as far as i could measure when i upgraded from 3.x to 4.x. my iphone 4 definitely has longer battery life than my 3gs did.

Do you know whether there is readily available info on iPhone 4 battery life vs. battery life on previous iPhones? I have a 3G and want to know. Significant battery improvement is one of the few reasons for me to consider upgrading.

i'd say between the 3g and the 3gs. not much difference. at least i never noticed any when i had both. between the 3gs and the 4, the 4 does last longer. not 8 hours longer. but enough to notice.
