I have a BES, with encryption, content compression, timeouts and memory cleaning etc. My administrators don't specifically forbid 5.0, but they don't support my problems if I have any.
That said, the battery life is significantly better. I'm pushing the device pretty hard with 100+ emails, things like Bluetooth on (unpaired, except for 2 hours a day of driving), Google Maps reporting to Latitude, UberTwitter ever 30 minutes, GPS On, and some weather apps pulling new weather (trying to find a good one - settling on BeWeather, I think) and I'm able to get a full day (18 hours) out of the device, even when throwing in an hour of talk. On 4.7, I'd struggle to get 12 hours. I'd say it's about 30-50% battery life improvement depending on my use.
When I turned nearly everything off, I was able to go 2 days easily.
