Just got an apple watch 7 41mm today. Overall love it. But ive heard that the battery is meant to last 18 hours?

It was 50% when i opened it, and it got to 20% in 6 hours (mind me that it was hardly used. On my wrist and glanced at with always on display.

Honestly that didnt really bug me, however i slapped it on charge until 80% and just saw it go from 70% to 66% in the matter of minutes.

BH is 97%, so it it just the case if watchOS 10 bugs? Will it get better?

oh really? what adapter? 20W?

[–] ironshadowy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yup. The 20W adapter.

Its honestly very annoying. I updated to 10.2 beta 3 in hopes for better battery life and will update once i go bed and let sleep tracking do its thing.

Took off charge an hour ago at 86% and its 76% as of now. So seems ok but it might drain quicker.

I could try a battery recalibration but doubt it would do anything
