Some iPhone 3GS buyers were experiencing that their new Apple device has lower battery life, the Los Angeles Times reports, saying it “has trouble making it through a workday without a rest stop at the electrical outlet.”

Take Gary Ng, 27, one of them.

“If citizens are committing $1,000 a year for two years to use a 3GS, I would definitely expect my battery to last a lot longer,” said Ng, a loyal Apple fan who runs

an iPhone blog from his home in Vancouver, Canada.

According to IFixit.com, repairing company which specializes in Apple products, the 3GS’s battery life was about 15% smaller than the original iPhone. But Apple spokeswoman Natalie Harrison emphasized, battery consumption is highly dependent on what applications and features are used.
