Hello all!

Just wondering if anyone has actually noticed a difference in battery life if location reporting and location history had been disabled on their phone. I have the note 4 and would like to use these features, but I find battery life more valuable. Anyone notice a dramatic difference?
 
I actually lowered my location reporting from very accurate to the middle setting earlier today. I've been losing around 15% battery in my sleep....I'll let you know tomorrow if I see an improvement.

Still lost my usual 15%. Maybe I'm just very used to apples insane off screen battery time. Overall the note 4 still outlast my iphone 5 3-1

I turned off Google location services and enabled the GPS/High accuracy on day 1 and the battery life has been absolutely glorious on this thing.
