    Unfortunately Buff this is an issue with all iPhones. The batteries are not easily replaceable and they wear out. Rechargeable batteries are a consumable item yet you can't just pop in a new one.

    If you are in love with your iPhone have the Apple store put in a new battery. If you just love iPhones in general, understand that this is Apple's way of making you upgrade and go buy a 6.

    If you aren't tied to Apple go buy a Samsung S5 or S6 in April that you can replace the battery whenever you want or even have two batteries so that you never have to worry about it.

    Unplug your space-heater, and put a charger at your desk.

    Worst case you could buy a little portable charger and keep it at your desk. I picked up a 2 pack of them $10. Should give you a couple more hours. Of course you probably have to buy an apple one and pay $50 since its shiny..........but maybe?

    I have a work iphone too, so I have a charger at home and at my desk... But I'd prefer to have a battery that's not a total POS.

    It seems like mine is an extreme case. I know the batteries suck in general, but it seems like losing its charge in a matter of a couple of hours is excessively bad. Maybe not?

    Not really to be honest. Once these batteries fail they lose charge very quickly. To be clear, this is ANY lithium ion battery, this is NOT phone specific.

    It's easier to fix on other phones though.

    actually Davii HTC and lg and Sony followed suit with the internal battery which just sucks. I have one on my Nexus as well Samsung and Motorola are the only big manufacturers that still have removable batteries and memory in their flagship models. And Buff there are tons of videos online about how to change the battery yourself. Moderate handiness and a few small drivers and you can have the satisfaction of not paying the douchers at the apple store rob you blind to do it for you.

    Have you at least tried my suggestion just to see if that may be the issue - it may not be the solution you want but it may help narrow down why your battery is draining so quickly
