Charged it at 7:55pm. Went to sleep with the watch woke up around 80%. It’s 2pm and it’s at 22%. I haven’t used the watch other than wear it to keep time. Its just doing the regular things like heart beat and tracking steps. Haven’t used it for work out or any of the other stuff. Battery health is at 99%. Just got this last week. Is this normal use? Thought it was quoted 36 hours battery life under regular use.

    My Series 4 is weirdly inconsistent when it comes to battery life. Normally, I wear it between about 7am to 9pm, and it usually has about 50% left at the end of the day. Right before I upgraded to WatchOS 10, I had a day when it was down to about 25% by 5pm. Yesterday, it was more or less normal (ended the day at about 45%), but this morning it went from 100% to 96% in a couple of minutes right after I took it off the charger. Since then, however, battery usage has been basically normal.

    Well, I count vouch for you since you only posted the watch’s battery graph, but the watch is definitely using too much power. I put my U2 on 6 hours ago at 100%, and it’s now at 96%, with the same usage as you had. I’d start with a reboot to see if that helps.

    Do you have any active complications on your face? I had the noise level complication on my watch face, and it ate battery because it was always working.

    After the latest update, everything works normally again. Before that update, it was those widgets that drained the battery significantly.

    It’s from the latest update. My watch would drain its battery within 4 hours. A fix that worked for me was fully resetting it. I wasn’t worried about the reset, since the data on it was automatically backed up during the process.

    Hope this helps!

    You’re just showing off your fancy shirt and fancy watch… Looks great though.
