Sorry, old S4 for me. Love it, and not wanting to upgrade anytime soon.

Just moved from an S3 to an S5 a couple months ago. My S3 would go two to three days between charges depending on usage. The S5 seems to be about the same. I do turn my phone off overnight; my wife leaves hers on overnight and she was charging her S3 daily. Now she has a Note 4.

I just got a s6 2 weeks ago. Mine works great, last all day with atleast 50% remaining, usually closer to 75. When I got it the location was on and that seemed to use more power. I also turn the brightness to about 75%. Maybe relevant or not but my wife just upgraded from a s3 and her work had no service in the building and would drain the entire battery searching for a network. She had to put it on airplane mode or turn it off to prevent this. I also charge my phones every night and never turn them off, some may argue this but I've had nothing but good luck doing this. Hope you figure it out.

Something you may find helpful, go to your Settings menu, find and click on Battery. You should get a screen with status on your battery and its charge. If you scroll down there should be a list showing what is using your battery power with the biggest user at the top of the list. This can help identify unwanted or unnecessary power hungry programs which can be reconfigured, disabled or removed.
