I guess everyone has their own experiences, but nearly all of the reviews and anecdotes I have heard -- and my own experience -- is that the Apple Watch can get through a full day just fine. Of course, you do have to charge it every night.
(And this is coming from someone who returned it and hated it for lots of reasons).
- irl_zebra 11y agoSorry if I was unclear. Basically, I meant to say that for Apple Watch owners that I know personally, they're able to get through a 24-hour period, but since the watch would be dead the next day, they charge at night. Which in my opinion makes the watch essentially useless for sleep tracking unless you charge mid-day at the office or something.
- djrogers 11y agoMakes it convenient that the watch was never marketed, promoted, or sold as a sleep tracking aid... That said, @_davidsmith 's new sleep tracking app for wOS2 is quite nice, and I found that his charging strategy does the trick - https://david-smith.org/blog/2015/09/21/how-to-wear-your-apple-watch-24-slash-7/ https://david-smith.org/blog/2015/09/21/how-to-wear-your-app... I only needed 15-20 min in the morning and evening to get to all day usability.
- brazzledazzle 11y agoDoes that charging strategy have any impact on the battery's life? I know batteries are rated for a certain number of recharge cycles but I don't know enough about the technology to know if multiple partial recharges have a neutral or negative impact.
