Choose YES if you own a 4S, use MS Exchange and have battery life problems.

Choose NO if you own a 4S, use MS Exchange and do not have battery life problems.


Thanks for participating. :apple:

You might want to change the subject as it's misleading. You'll probably get a number of people voting without reading the OP. And when you say "Microsoft Exchange" are you including or excluding ActiveSync accounts (accounts "set up as Exchange") that are not actually Exchange accounts such as gmail, Hotmail, etc?

The question is actually: 4S owners with Microsoft Exchange: Do you have battery problems?

I have a 4s, use Microsoft Exchange (for company email, contacts and other stuff) and I get a full day with extra life still in my battery at night. I send/receive 200-300 emails a day, talk on the phone and I think the battery life is great.

I voted yes because I use exchange on my 4S.... then I read your criteria and realised I should have voted no! :roll eyes: Oops!

The poll is a tad misleading

I have horrible battery life, Genius Bar refuses to switch it out too. They think they're teaching me something by saying restore, I've tried that 20 times.

I don't use Exchange though, and brightness is all the way low. By the end of the day on standby I'm on atleast 50%.

Should of voted no. I misread the OP the first time around. :(

Ditto.

I use gmail as exchange and have no problem. About the same as my 4 and both are way better than the 3gs.

OP should redo the pole with four options.

Have you restored as new?

I can't seem to edit the poll to change what I need to change. I see the error. Thanks for pointing that out folks.

I have MS Exchange and had battery problems until I drained my battery all the way down (where the phone shuts off) and then charge it. I saw a REAL improvement in battery life afterwards. I'm pretty sure there was an entire thread on the whole battery issue, even though this one is talking about it WITH exchange...
