While it’s true that there’s a lot more scope in iOS5 for power drain, when I got my 4S I did what I did with my 3GS… systematially worked thru every item under Settings in order to turn off any feature I didn’t think was useful or necessary. As a result I’m getting much the same battery performance as on the previous iPhone.

IMO it’s well worth taking this approach – you’d be amazed how many apps are automatically set to send data “home” or needlessly push notifications to you. To my mind, it’s just part of tailoring the device to your needs, along wth setting the wallpaper etc.
