Expected battery life?

Hey guys,
I am interested in getting the Galaxy S III for At&t and I am just trying to get an accurate estimation of how much battery life I should expect to get with this phone.

Before you answer, let me just tell you my story which may be similar to yours. I got the Galaxy S II last October and loved it. Everything about the phone was amazing including the battery which would get me through the day with medium to heavy usage without a hitch. My only issue with it was the internet speeds, so a few months ago, I did a trade-in for an HTC Vivid. Living in an LTE market (Chicago), I am experiencing much faster internet speeds, but the GS2 turned out to be better in every category including battery life.

If anyone has owned either the Vivid or the Galaxy S II, and would be willing to give me a comparison on its battery life vs. the S3, I would really appreciate it.

Went from the s2 to the s3 battery life is far better on the s3 I'm in the UK so can't comment on US battery life.
 
I get 16 hours easily. No stupid FB, Twitter or the like updates. Only GMail, Exchange, Weather and a few other apps running that require network connectivity.
 
My business partner has the S3 and is completely happy with the battery life. He came from an Eris. He brags about the phone daily. It must be decent in all facets.
 
I've had my at&t S3 for about a week. The first few days I really played with it so I didn't really take that into account. Now that its set up, no social updates unless I'm in the app, email syncs every 4hrs and gps is off unless needed, the battery has been great. 16+ hours. No games really either. I also disabled any app that couldn't be deleted that I know I will never use.
