I usually lurk these forums, but since battery is such a big topic, I decided to just post my initial thoughts on it for those who don't have the phone yet. If anyone else has the phone already, feel free to contribute.
I didn't conduct any real test or anything. This is just my opinion based on personal usage the last 24 hours or so. I will answer any questions and give more thoughts on it as I get more usage out of the phone.
I went from about 100% to 85% today during a 15 minute drive to work using iHeart Radio. In comparison to my M8 which would only lose about 5% this is much lower.
The rate at which the phone discharges while using it is also noticeable. As of right now, I have been on battery for about an hour and 20 minutes with a screen on time of 1 hour and 10 mins and I'm at 63%. Mostly browsing Facebook and a text here and there on LTE. I would like to post a screen shot, but I'm not seeing an option for that on the mobile site.
The phone does charge fast though both wireless and wired so that is definitely a plus for heavy users like myself.
