Had to turn off ‘Always On’. This is the feature that made the series 5 seem like an upgrade to me. But with battery capacity at 81%. I can’t rely on watchOS 10.1.1.1 to get me through the day.

My Series 5 is also at 81% capacity. I’ve had Always On turned off pretty much since I got it since I use it all day and wear it at night for sleep tracking. I’m charging it twice a day right now. I wish battery replacement wasn’t so expensive, the watch is only worth $90 to Apple but a battery is $99. Trying to hold out till next year for the supposed redesign but I’m barely making it through the day sometimes now.
dont know why we accept charging our apple watches multiple time a day. when traditionally watches usually need battery changes annually, or even longer depending on the type of battery and watch, Garmin, Sunto seem to hold their own when it comes to battery endurance. Even android wear watches can run for multiple days without requiring a charge...
