I've heard lots of reports of battery problems with their 4S before, but mine didn't seem to be affected. Mine was okay.
After updating to iOS 5.1, the battery life became almost unusable! My 4S was fully charged before going to bed, I left it on the table with only alarm set. I woke up with 25% battery life left! Siri was turned off. Location services was also off. But Notification was on for most Apple's own widgets, others were off though. How could it drain my battery so quick! It must not be the hardware, since my 4S was fine before the iOS 5.1 update. |

Honestly, I've noticed a similar thing. I'm on the 4, but it does seem to drain a little quicker since I put 5.1 on last week.

Mine has been substantially better since the 5.1 update. Night and day difference really. Used to be just bout enough juice to get through a day, now I can get through two days comfortably. That being said, supposedly this has been happening to some users and I guess some people have had success essentially wiping their phones and starting over(obviously syncing all the data beforehand). Lame sort of problem and a lamer solution, but I guess that's been reported to help.

My iPhone 4 is getting killed battery wise since 5.1. I probably lose close to 25-30% over night while sleeping and 1% every couple minutes with even light use. My iPad 2 seems ok, but my iPhone is unacceptable right now.

It's weird, my iPhone 4 battery has seemed to fix itself. It's not draining nearly as fast anymore. I'm not complaining about that.

All I've noticed with 5.1 is an unbelievably aggressive autocorrect that will change correctly-spelled words to other words and also jump at any opportunity to correct a misspelling with a rogue capital letter to an Apple product, like iTMS or iLife or something.

Shocked no one has posted this yet, 5.1.1 is out now. Seems to fix a few bugs more than anything:
