Finally! My 2020 SE barely lives a day, after WatchOS 10 update.
My Ultra 1 was having this after I did the ios17 upgrade on my phone and the subsequent watchOS update.
I lived with it for a couple of weeks then did a full reset with only a single face installed. I am back to my normal battery life now
Not much draining on my Series 8.
But I have noticed it doesn’t refresh regularly since watch os 16. Like every time I click on a complication it’ll give different results.
Same on my series 7 - I’ve not noticed anything. I guess it affects older models more.
I noticed it on my series 7. Before I got at least a bit more than 24 hours of normal use with the screen always on. Now it is getting about 4 or 5 hours less.
Weird - I’m still getting a day and a half, and I’m using the Snoopy face with all the animations. Since there’s no other complications, I wonder if it’s one of those that is affecting the problem
Barely surviving with my series 5 as is
Series 4 looking at you longingly, missing 2 of 3 death rolls
i still have a series 3, the battery still last me a day and a bit without any workout. The darn thing won’t die. Let’s see if the series 10 has anything worth upgrading to.
My Series 2 would enter the chat, but it needs to get its Social Security Check first before it can afford a bus ticket to get here.
My series 5 battery has been much worse since installing watchOS 10.
Wow I thought it was just my watch’s battery showing its age. I’m glad it’s being addressed.
Weird. I have a series 9 and this thing sips battery. After a full day I’m down to maybe 60% and that’s if I heavily use it.
The problem with this is that the battery capacity will be greatly reduced, meaning it will need to be replaced sooner than normal.
I had a similar issue on watchOS 9 and apple after many attempts would not help me revert the update which seems to have caused the issue. I ended up having to pay for Apple care and get a replacement watch, which I refuse to let update. Pretty annoying. I definitely won’t be allowing my current one to update to version 10 now. It’s sad that the bar is this low, but at least Apple doesn’t force you to update in this case (at least so far)
Luckily you’re happy with just their tip in your ass!
