Have you adjusted the polling intervals? If pull is too often then push isn't going to help. Your account may or may not even support push.I have mine set at manual for now. I tried fetch email, but it fetches too often for my taste. So I'm wondering what Push email does and whether its better for me
It's not quite so black and white. Polling intervals will definitely have an impact on which consumes more.Push uses more battery but you get emails instantly.

Fetch = the phone checks for new emails at set intervals.
Push = new emails are pushed from the server to your phone.
Push uses more battery but you get emails instantly.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't that depend on how many emails you get? For example, lets say you only received one email in a 1 hour period - If you had fetch set to fetch emails every 10 minutes, wouldn't those 6 fetches use more battery than one push?
