I highly doubt Android Wear will improve on battery life to compete with the Pebbles short of a huge scientific breakthrough.
A full charge of the Pebble Time lasted me 5-6 days.
- e_y_ 10y agoThey can increase battery life by making the watch bigger and heavier. Don't laugh -- okay, do laugh, but it's surprising what people will put up with. We used to think that 6" phones were ridiculous.
- TickleSteve 10y agoAbsolutely right. There is no way that a Cortex-A series processor will be as efficient as the Cortex-M's microcontrollers that are being used by the Pebbles. There is also nothing that needs the power of the Cortex-A's either, the M series are perfectly capable of doing everything a watch needs to.
- sundvor 10y agoYeah, on the Pebble Time Steel it lasts me 7-8 days. Before I activated health activity tracking, I'd get to the order of 9-10 days on average. I find this highly impressive.
