When doing next to nothing. My 4S will go for 3+ days when its doing nothing (apart from pulling in emails every 15 minutes).
But that isn't normal usage - at least for me. Typically at work I'll check twitter, post on facebook, listen to some music, make some calls, take a couple of pictures. Used like that, the battery life, while better on iOS 7 than it was on iOS 6 is still pretty dire. Doubtful that it would make it to a second day.
And I dare say that the 5S will likely be much better for most people.
As fun as these devices are, the battery life really isn't that good. Heck, for my usage my old BB was leagues ahead - that would go for 5 days of calls, facebook, twitter, etc. But doubt we'll be getting the option of BB when we come up for our renewals.
