Hi Venkatesh I have not noticed a significant battery problem from my iPhone 4 and when i fot 4S. You might want to get a portable battery charger you can carry around. That's at I did, but I seldom have to use it from within my purse.
I think the dictation feature is pretty good, but then I am doing it with a southern U.S. accent. Having said that, I have to be careful to say my words clearly so Siri will understand me.
