- tzs 7y agoHave people worked out how much various tasks and usage patterns affect battery life? With a Series 4, I can get through the night. I suspect that a large part of that is that I keep "Wake Screen on Wrist Raise" off most of the time. Generally I only enable it when doing a workout (~30 minutes a day) and sometimes in the kitchen when using timers. Another factor is probably that I don't use it for much more than telling time, checking my activity level, checking weather, and reading the occasional text message. If I charge to 99% or 100% during breakfast, I'm almost always above 60% at bedtime, and overnight with the Sleep++ app tracking uses under 20%.

- rimliu 7y agoDepends on the usage. My series 4 can easily last two days.
- toasterlovin 7y agoIt probably does have enough battery life if my watch is any indicator. And if it doesn't a small change to your daily routine, such as charging your watch both at night while you prepare for bed as well as in the morning while you get ready for the day, will make getting through the day + night no problem. You get most of a charge in something like 30 minutes.
- sdan 7y agoI don't understand why so many are saying that sleep tracking is a problem? My series 4 taking up 10-20% over night. Then I charge it for a bit in the morning before going to work.
