Yep, mine still lasts 2 days if I push it, though Ive been plonking it on its puck every morning while I get up since I got it at launch, its only ever dropped below 20% a handful of times. Sure ive been charging it more than most, but it doesnt do full battery cycles per charge so its lasted longer

46MM Galaxy Watch here and I can get 24H or sometimes a bit more provided I switch it to night mode when I'm sleeping. Still using AOD, cont HR monitor etc. Yeah, this old thing is getting long in the tooth, but I came to it from WearOS, really don't want to go back.

Not a lot is appealing to me in the smartwatch market currently. Good for my wallet, I suppose.

Is this the norm for smart watches? I just bought my first one, a Redmi watch 3 active, 6 days ago and still haven't charged it yet (just got to 18%.)

There's no way I'd put up with another device that I have to charge every day.

Agreed. My old pebble lasts for over a week, not that I use it for much more than an alarm clock/metronome nowadays.

It does those jobs extremely well, though.
