- about 20 text messages (total- both directions)
- About 4 minutes of cell talk time.
- About 10 minutes of surfing.
- 20 minutes of Angry Birds at lunch; and another 45 minutes on the way home.

I charged it last night and started this morning near 99%. Was back down to 55% after lunch again today. Charging at work now.

These are almost the exact same battery results I had from my 1.5 year old 3GS.
With the current coverage you might actually be best turning off LTE if you are in a flaky zone, reason being is your phone will keep changing from LTE to 3G if you are in crappy coverage (thus, killing the battery) If not, ignore this advice.
