Will see if it improves my battery life. Backed up everything to Samsung Kies. Will comeback and report here the difference if any.
 
I'm here to say it has improved by about 20% - 25%. Worth the trouble to reset it. Just save all your stuff to Samsung Kies on a PC before you do it. Then reload it all back on after the reset. Took about 20 min to do it all. Of course everyone will get slightly different results since we all run different things and brightness levels etc. But its worth doing the reset. At max brightness no auto all day with moderate use and logged out of Facebook after 10hrs, I'm down to 47% where before by this time I would be less than 20% after the lolipop update. So basically I'm back to where my battery life was before lolipop.
 
i may pull the trigger on a factory reset for mine as well my battery life has been getting worse since the update i will do it tonight and report back tomorrow, I just hate having to get everything setup the way i like it again
 
Did the Kies backup/restore actually reinstall all your apps, with saved passwords and activation codes intact where necessary?
