Maybe I do not use mine to its potential, but it is midnight here just before bed, and my series 2 is at 73%. Certainly not 5 to 7 days, but far longer than barely a day.
- williamstein 10y agoSame -- my series 1 is at 75%, and it's 9pm...
- threeseed 10y agoSame for me. Series 1. I routinely finish the day with about 70%. Full brightness and an hour of fitness tracking (i.e. all sensors on) in the morning. Something is defective with the watch or it isn't running watchOS 3 if it isn't lasting a day. I can easily last a weekend.

- dpandey 10y agoBelieve me, I'm a big fan of the Apple Watch. Everytime I meet someone who uses (used to use) the Watch, it usually turns out they have given up because of short battery life. I have a series 1: looks like it has improved in recent versions. I'm glad to hear that. Mine barely lasts a day. Battery life is really important. Many of my friends see smartwatches as primarily a fitness device, and when the comparison with Fitbit (or anyone else) happens, it usually comes last. My hope is that Apple focusses aggressively on making the iWatch battery life longer. That would undoubtedly lead to further lift in sales and happier customers.
- jsjohnst 10y agoUnless you got it in the last two months, you don't have a series 1. You have an "Apple Watch". * Apple Watch - released last year * Apple Watch Series 1 - released in September of this year, has new CPU, but otherwise mostly same * Apple Watch Series 2 - latest edition
- sitharus 10y agoMore anicdata, my original makes it through the day with 60%. It does about 40 hours on a charge. This is with fitness tracking and notifications on.
- madeofpalk 10y agoI put mine on at 7:30am, and its now 4:56pm and I'm sitting at 61%.
