Supposedly better.

I installed IOS6 on my phone last week and I can say whatever they have done for battery management is a little better. not leaps and bounds or anything, shutting off wifi when you're out and about still seems to be the best way to increase battery life but it is noticeably better than before.

The place i noticed it the most is on my kids ipod touch. Added at least 12 hours time between charges. So if there's an increase on products other than the 5 I imagine there will be an increase on a product made to take full advantage of the IOS6
