Battery Life For The New iPhone 5S: Important Consideration For Those Working In The Oil Patch

Battery life:
  • 10 hours 3G talk time
  • 8 hours 3G browsing
  • 250 hours standby
  • 10 hours LTE browsing
  • 10 hours wi-fi browsing
  • 40 hours music playback
  • 10 hours video
I doubt there is a phone with better battery life.

The camera is incredible: burst mode - 10 frames per second; slo-mo; panorama (perfect for North Dakota).

Touch ID: fingerprint ID; 360-degree readability; sensor in the home button; not pressed, simply detected; "deeply built into iOS 7"; can make iTune purchases using your finger to authenticate.

I'm waiting to see the price. The new 5C can be had for as little as $99 with a two-year contract.

Here it is: the iPhone 5S can be had for as little as $199 with a two-year contract. 

Oh, by the way, the iPhone 4S, with 8 GB, is FREE. As in free.

And for roughnecks traveling to China, China will get the iPhone at launch. This is the first time that China got an iPhone at launch. Launch: September 20.

NTT DoCoMo will also get the iPhone in Japan for the first time.

MacRumors forum server is down; overloaded with hits. -- 1:15 pm CST, just after Apple presentation ends.
