Easily go all day, ~20% lowest. Takes about a hour to charge. A quiet day, in low power mode, 60%.
57% Last charges 8:44pm last night. It’s 1:44pm now. So that’s 18hrs now with the latest patch.

Apple ruined Apple Watch.

It’s either a battery needing replacing (meaning replacement Watch via AppleCare) or a brand new watch. Or just certain apps are really causing issues. This whole thing is very peculiar. My series 8 with a whole bunch of random third party apps never had an issue with the 10.1 update and same with 10.1.1 battery life is still solid at 91% battery health.
I also noticed decline in battery life. It used to last like well over 24 hours now I have to charge it every 24 hours
Not here. 10.1.1 is pretty solid for me.
Force restart: keep both buttons pressed until you will see the apple logo (10-15 seconds)
What version of watch are you all using? Is it just affecting some series? I’m on Ultra 2 and haven’t noticed more drain yet.
Overall battery life on my Ultra 1 was 100%. After being a battery drain victim of the 10.1 debacle, I updated to 10.1.1 and my battery life jumped down to 97%….because of their IOS F-up. How did that go unnoticed in all of the beta releases!?
Reset fixed my drain problem.
84% battery health. This doesn’t look too bad to me.
SE 2023 here. Seems even better after the update.
Same here. I’m not updating after this 🤣
Mine is worse.
Yes! Battery life took a nose dive. I have the series 9 watch and the battery life was phenomenal. Since 10.1.1, awful.
No, didn't noticed too much battery drain prior the update, but now it's 2% per hour on average on me 2nd gen SE. Which is insane to get 50 hours on theoretical max.
I have the original Ultra.
I updated this morning and took it off the charger at 8:45 - was at 76%.
I’m at 48% now at 7:10 pm.
I tracked two workouts (44 minutes total) and otherwise haven’t used it for anything other than time and notifications.
So lost about 28% in 10.5 hours… I can’t tell if that’s good or bad anymore.
All I know is that when I got it I could get fully charged while taking a shower and getting ready for work - I haven’t been able to since version 10; ever two or three days I am close to a dead battery by bed time and have to leave it on the charger overnight.
Ultra 2 here. Before 10.1, it was excellent, 3 to 4 days. 10.1 got worse, 2 days max. 10.1.1 is excellent again
I have two series 5’s. I used to wear each for 12 hours. Giving me 24 hours of heart monitoring using a special app (medical reasons). The previous update cut that down to 8 hours. And now since this update my watches are only lasting 4-6 hours. It’s ridiculous.
I put my watch on at 7:30 AM. It's now 10:02 PM. Battery is at 62%. I'm on Series 9.
The only time I had battery drain issues, I found podcasts and music were stuck trying to download a bunch of stuff in the Apple Watch settings app
What about your battery health guys ? My S4 used to even shut off at low percent and the battery life was quite bad after watchOS 10. It had 82% battery health. Had no choice but to replace it by Apple. And now it’s night and day. I slept with it and it’s at 88% percent.
I actually had the best battery since having my se2. I took off the charger around 12:30 didn’t put it back on the charger until 0730 the next day and had 50% battery remaining.
I’ve lost 41% in nearly 12 hours, 1st gen SE
Series 7. I thought it couldn’t get worse and battery is way worse on 10.1.1
Mine seemed like it was draining a little quicker than normal on 10.1 but holy shit 10.1.1 is terrible so far.
Fkng apple just ruining everyones day after an update. Fk you apple
Actually improved on my series 6, not by much but still a welcome improvement
10.2 might be better. I faced this issue with 10.1 and then upgraded to 10.2 beta and got better battery life
Yeah, I’m going to give 10.2 a go, it might be as bad but I can’t imagine it will be worse.
I removed the pairing from the watch and then restored a backup, then completely reset the watch without restoring a previous backup and configuring it as a brand new watch
Well, despite all this, the battery drains at a crazy speed, I can no longer even record a night’s sleep without recharging it on my way home when before I could do it, I usually had 40% battery left.
i’ve always had my watch last all day, and it’s an se, but yesterday for the first time, i was at like 10% at around 12:00 pm. crazy
Same here. Didn’t have any problems, updated my Ultra 2 to 10.1.1 and the battery level took a plunge. 🪫
I don’t know if it’s worse but if the intention of the update was to fix the battery drain issue, it didn’t fix it for me. 🙁
