I think it's something to do with your bad network, or the unit is flawed. Disable your net connection and see if it still runs your battery fast? then you know that's not the problem.

-- turned low battery mode on
-- changed email "fetch" to "manual" for all the accounts
-- dissbled background refresh for all the apps
-- few more tweaks here and there
Having done all this, I still got a drop of 6% in 11 hours which is rather unimpressive given that so much was disabled.
I do not have wifi access in my room. And I have just switched back to 2G from 3G because of excessive data bill the past month. Im sure the phone is not looking for any other network while on standby since I have explicitly marker 2G as the only available network. Not sure whats going on.

With iPad i have 30 min fetch for Mail and standby time is still great.
Maybe you have bad connection and your phone try to find LTE all the time and that ruins your battery, or do you use wifi most of time? I use.

Also, if my unit is actually faulty what should I do about it? Visit the apple store and ask for a replacement? I am not sure whether they still have a policy (in India) to replace the faulty unit right away rather than repairing it. Just being on the safe side I already bought a separate replacement warranty to have the faulty unit replaced rather than repaired. So will that help?

Are you sure about that? Have you enabled/disabled any settings to achieve that sort of standby or getting that figure all out of the box?

The stand by times are worse though. Mine dropped from 93% (at 1.00 am) to straight 79% (at 9.31 am) in just 8.30 hours while on stand by. Thats a 14% drop.

2.4Ghz Wifi = Decent
5Ghz = Decent if your close (Like in the house or right infront.) , beyond that
it either purposefully hides it from the list or it actually can't pick it up ; I do not know which.
Because , my router doesnt do 5Ghz so i cant truely confirm.

But I do a lot of surfing and looks like it is consuming 16% of my battery every one hour while browsing and screen is all time on with brightness set to about a quarter of max available.
This way it only translates to about 6.5 hours of continuous usage (surfing) on full charge before it finally dies in my case. Again this is about only a half of the endurance value that the gsma assessed for the browsing part. My question is do you also get similar numbers while browsing? Thanks
