I bought the same watch 10 days ago. It had 82% when I opened the box, I didn't even charge it, and it has 39% now. During that time I had one 3/4 hour GPS activity, and 24/7 heart rate monitor + mobile notifications. I was also playing with it quite a bit to set everything up. Sunlight exposure was pretty low, so ... I'm impressed.
It does everything I want from watch. Great readability in every condition, good GPS, reliable heart rate, long battery life (I keep forgetting to charge even my phone).
I've had it for about 3 months now. I've never had it drop below 45% battery. Haven't turned off any settings to extend life like I had to on WearOS. I only charge when I take a shower....and that's not a daily thing lol.
I'm on the first gen non-solar for 3 years now. Love it, have a spare still in the box in case this one dies 20 years from now lol
