Awu2 fully charged yesterday at 22:10 with sleep tracking this morning only lost 3% which was 10% before the patch. Quite the improvements
I recently switched from Ultra to S9. I realized, even when I travel, I recharged my Watch every night. I end with about 50-60% every night when I put it on the charger. Medium usage, mostly for timers, notifications, exercising, and checking off to-do lists.
not bad at all
series 4 user here - i get about a day with mine, have to put it on the charger every night but i dont like to wear watches while sleeping because i sweat and it makes my wrist and the watch smell bad. i use the workout features and its still a really solid watch in 2023
Don't run your watch that low. RIP capacity. Charge it no lower then 35.
I get 84 hours out of my awu2. Normal use. Always on display is turned off.
Yes battery life is much better in 10.1.1
My AWU2 battery is actually better on 10.1.1. On 10.0 and 10.1, battery was depleting around 30% every 24 hours. In the last 24 hours, with 2 indoor workouts, it only depleted 22%.
(no cellular, no AOD, no Pulse Ox, no noise monitor)
That's a lot of running. Have you considered ultra marathons?
10.1.1 is out to fix that.
What are people’s thoughts on the 20-80 rule?
i follow this, and my ultra 1 after over 1 year is still reporting 100% battery health. I do an out door workout 3-4 times a week as well to put things more into perspective.
SE 2 user with 60 hour battery life. May or may not increase with the 10.1.1 but not gonna upgrade unless apple pushes me to.
are the health features even enabled? raise to wake? astonishing battery life!!
I remember when my series 4 lasted a few days on watchOS 6. I recently updated it to watchOS 9.x and the battery lasts less than 18 hours, now. Been like this if not worse every update since.
My U2 holds almost 2 days easy. No battery issues.
AWU1, no cellular, no workouts, no sleep tracking, but fairly active during the day. Charged to 100% Wed at 05:00. Now 25% at not quite 14:00 on Thursday. So that’s… 33 hours?
So I’m on track for 40ish, but how are you 72 hours in? What are you other relevant settings for display and sensors and background activity?
Do you have AOD on?
Very nice. How do you bring up that screen? I only recent got the Apple watch ultra 2 and haven't figured everything out yet
