Happy to see a forum section up for the Galaxy watch!
I've had the Galaxy Watch (46mm) for about a week and a half and I am getting just under 2 days of battery with always-on display, screen brightness at 2 and everything else default. Wish it was just OVER 2 days but still, I am happy with this.
What I have noticed though is that my phone (Pixel 2) has been draining battery faster... I thought maybe it was the service looking at notifications, so I lowered the number of apps to notify for (from 20 to 13) but still, the same drain. Battery usage on the mobile isn't showing me the cause, there is a 30% of usage that isn't accounted for (With system apps showing).
I had a Skagen hybrid smartwatch before (Missing the display but the hands would point to a number to tell me what notification it was vibrating for) and the battery drain wasn't there.
What are your experiences?
I am still on my first charge, since I only bought it yesterday. It is now at 30% battery after ca 32 hours of use without AoD and it tells me it will last another 23 hours in the battery settings. I wanna run this thing empty at least at the first charge so it learns my usage properly and can adjust.

Running pretty similar - around about 2 days use on the 46mm. I'm not using AoD; Screen at 5; but have bumped the HRM to regular checks; dropped the "Stress" monitor to manual, as having that automatic dragged the battery life waaay down (I'd guess to less than a day!); GPS enabled; regular updates for altimeter & barometric pressure; reasonable amount of activity tracking (1-3 hours/day).
Whilst initially disappointed (not exactly the touted life expectancy) it does seem reasonable with what I've got running. Definite bonus for having the dual fast charge included on the pre-order, that I can drop it onto the dock alongside my phone when I have chance to sit at my desk!
It is now ca 67 hours on my first charge and I am down to 3% now.
At the end of the day (from midnight to midnight because i register also sleep) Middle-heavy use almost 50% battery!
On my 46mm with always display, brightness at 5, HR 10sek and connected to phone I'm getting about 40-42hours
For me almost 25% consumption per day.

I'll get around 50 hours with AoD enabled and somewhere between 3 and 4 days without (depending on workout), with heart rate monitoring set to every 10 minutes.
easily 4 days for me
HOW! I don't understand how some of you get more than 2 days. I've seen YouTube reviewer say he got 5 days. The most I ever go t was 2 and a half days. Furthermore I would end the first day with 75% when I first got my Gear s3. With this watch I finish my day with 70%. Which is consistent with my 2.5 day experience. My watch loses about 1% per hour at night which is quite a lot.
hmm guys... Problem is phone battery drain, not watches for me. Before, with amazfit stratos 2, motorola 360 2nd gen. or even zeblaze thor 3g phones battery drain was minimal. Now I have 3-4% oer hour. Phone sm note 8, not rooted. Dont understand how to manage that
no noticeable battery drain on my Pixel 2 XL.

We cannot really judge if we do not know your settings. You should use sleep mode while sleeping. If you have AoD on than your mileage is as expected. Without it you will get easily more than 3 days.

Since using Night mode when in bed, I am now getting closer to 3 days of use. Very happy about that.
My phones battery life is still draining just as hard, still havn't worked this out. If I can resolve that, i'd be a very happy Galaxy Watch user.
The best upgrade is battery

I have to 42mm and today was my first real full day and I went from 100% at 7am to about 28% at 10pm. No real heavy use. Just some notifications replying to a couple of text.. Y settings are Aod off GPS off nfc off brightness 3 heart rate checks on manual(didn't even have a check today).
What settings does your wife have to get 3-3.5 days? If mine doesn't have a vast improvement there is no way I get that!

Aod off .. brightness 8 ,NFC and wifi on HR manual
I'd try a factory reset see if that fixes it for you used to do the trick on the S3 ..I would reset if battery life degraded and would fix it till next time

Thanks! I'll try the factory reset this morning and see if that help. Does she use a stock watch face? I downloaded a few as soon as I got the watch, all of them are black watch faces so I assumed they wouldn't kill battery. I'll test today with a stock face too and see if I get a different result.

Hi everyone,
I received the OTA update 1.28 yesterday (the Netherlands). My most important issue before I installed the update, was the battery life; the relatively high usage of the 'screen' in particular.
A preliminary report about update 1.27/1.28 said the battery life would improve drastically, showing screenshots of how little the 'screen'-usage was. Well, in my case the opposite happened; the battery life actually became worse. I think my max screen-on time is about 0,5h - 1h less than it used to be.
Here are some images of my battery usage. As you can see, it's running for 7h 34m now, and it's already hitting the 48%. My screen-on time being only 1h 9m. Didn't do anything power-consuming today as you can see; a little bit of whatsapping, browsing, etc. I propably won't even get 2 hours of screen-time:S

For those who already received the OTA; how is your experience with the battery life? Did it become worse as well?
Same here. For what's it's worth, it might even have gotten worse...
How can you comment on the update after 24hrs usage?? Give it a week and a few charge cycles and then see how it goes. Or, better yet, factory reset the phone and add apps one at a time - it could be a poorly coded app causing the issues

Well, the fact my battery life became worse could be due to a miscallibrated battery, in which case a complete discharge and full charge (or stats reset) might improve the battery life. If a poorly coded app caused the issue, the app would probably show up in the battery usage list.
That being true or not, the battery life will probably not increase compared to 1.26, because the screen is using a lot of power, relatively speaking (more than half of the battery life is being drained by the screen). I expected this 'problem' to be solved after the update, but I guess the screen (and GPU?) are just very power-hungry.
The OTA update didnt really impact battery life (still crappy )... Im now running ARHD rom and the battery life is a lot better!!
Custom ROMs seem to be the way forward for now.

That's nice,, how much % does the screen process use after a couple hours of moderate use in this rom?
After the update my discharging is fasten then my charging

Theres an app on the market called Power Tune-Up. Use it to see which apps are power hungry. On my Desire, i have found that some apps have a very serious impact on battery life.

2 hours on battery today and I have only put it down for a quick 10 minute lunch and (1hr 40 screen time) and i have only lost 13% battery! Not bad eh?
I've been off the battery for about 3 and a half hours and last time I looked, about ten minutes ago... it was on 90% battery... for over an hour I've been listening to music as well on it.
Though, my battery life was not actually that bad on 1.26 either, but for the moment I have no complaints about 1.28... even though the spare core might not be working properly yet for background tasks... so I can only hope that battery life will actually improve with time!

1h 40 screen time and you only lost 13% battery? So you have 87% left? That would mean you can get around 12-13 hours screen time!? :what: Post some screenshots please with screen time, overall usage and brightness settings.

Slightly less. Been on battery for about 4-5 hrs haven't put it down yet. Still have approx 5 hrs left of usage.
Will do a complete drain and post battery stats for y'all tomorrow.
Brightness is lowest setting.

After a week of having the HOX, I think im seeing some improvements to the battery.
Im at 48% left,
9:30 hours usage with 1:30 of screen time.
Took it off the charger at 09.00 this morning and now the time is 18.11.
Been calling, mailing, texting, some browsing and syncing offline playlists from Spotify.
Running 1.28 OTA, non root, HT23 model.
The one thing I do experience from time to time, is backlight flickering. It just seems to come and go.
Cheers!
I have 11% left and here are my results.
4,45 hour talk time
1,08 hour screen time

yeah the hox is meant to be amazing at handling standby. Will also try this test tonight see how it fares.
So far I have been using my with moderate usage took it off the charger at like 5:43 AM.

Fully charge last night and when it went 3% and this is my stats:
3g was on for about 3hr,15 minutes games, and browsing for 1 hour max.
With 1.26 I have great battery life.
With 1.28 it's the same,great.
18 hours and still 64%.
Few phone calls,browser,and hours of listening to music.
Not bad at all.
I have a great HOX.
Since updating my 360 that used to get upto 2 days use before charging it now only last between 8 - 10 hours , has anyone else experienced this ??
Mine died for the first time last night.
It has been draining faster after the update.
I have 41% left after 24 hours of use, with like 50 notifications during this time. For me the update imrpoved the battery significantly. I'm waiting to see if it can achieve 48 hours.

I have Wear Mini Launcher, Wear Messenger and Facer installed but I use a stock watch face (the one with digital display). Brightness set to auto and Ambient Off.
My battery life increased. I got two whole days on one charge for the first time.
First day:
Off the charger at 8 am
Turned the watch off at 11 pm with 57%
Second day:
Turned on the watch at 9 am. (Funny thing the watch actually showed 61% even though it never touched the charger)
Put of the charger at 11:30 pm with 9% remaining
This is the best battery life I have gotten. I was using stock watch face, but have several apps installed including Facer.
mine is worse
Mine has been better since the latest 4.4w2 update and with the ambient light on.
Mine drained itself completely in 8 hours but I was using Facer, which I suspect is the culprit (it was fine before the upgrade though). I switched to a stock watchface and I'm down to 84% today after four hours of light use.

4% per hour battery is general level for 360 after my three weeks usage. Each day I record every hour the battery. And I use facer all the time.
You may need to find other watch face by using facer which can keep that 4% drain. So far I put quite many app on watch and do not see it impact battery much.
Mine is slightly better than the last update. I have Facer (but using stock face), Wear Mini Launcher, and Strava installed. Watch comes off the charger at 8:30am and by 11:30pm I usually have 65-70% battery remaining. This thing has absolutely ridiculous battery life, IMO.

Even better battery life after the latest update. I was getting 12 hours initially but now should hit 50 hours with ambient off, stock face minimal and light usage.

After the last update I'm finally getting this amazing battery all you guys are talking about! 6 hours in and I'm sitting at 90%. Now if my phone could last this long. :silly:
Getting worse by the hour....
Now it is using 28.5% per hour! just fully charged it from dead and it's showing 2 hours to discharge, what the hell???
I've turned facer off and on stock digital face, ambient off , think this thing is going back as faulty!!
Strange....
My 360 has gone from 2 hours at charge now upto 21 hours for no apparent reason, but I'm happy now !!
Ambient screen on or off?
Ambient screen is off
I've noticed a lot of people using stock watchfaces are experiencing better battery life than most, regardless of having facer installed or not. I'm assuming that this could be because facer is an app synced through the phone and hence communicates more often with the phone (using more battery) than the stock watchfaces, which are loaded on the watch itself. I would suggest switching to a stock watchface after a reboot and observing any changes! If its the case, we can only wait for release of an API for watchfaces on Android Wear!

I just got through a second days use (I turn it off at night) and still have 22% left now. I've turned it off again, and will see how far i get tomorrow before it final goes flat on day 3. Im ambient mode off, and I use the stock minimal face... everything else on.
24 hours of usage with Ambient ON and Auto Brightness ON, with 10% still remaining. A new record for me, after this update.
It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the LG G5 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I have the H860N (dual sim) on build v10c. Take note I am only using SIM1 as the second slot is used by my 64GB microSD (it's a hybrid slot).
1st test

There is LG's official bootloader unlock program for the unbranded EU H850.once u do that(only for h850) there is TWRP built for it too
This was originally posted by me in the battery life thread:
Bit over a week with the phone.
H850 stock rooted v10c. Xposed v83
Used greenify and amplify;disabled and removed some stock apps, AOD and daydream off.
Let phone top up for 1hr after reaching 100%full charge
Best battery life I've had on a phone with no kernel manipulation yet...
I reached 7hrs SOT with like 5hrs YouTube and 20hrs on battery...but this was the 2nd day and I thought it was a fluke.this last cycle was post worthy these pictures were taken evening of 5/4 after almost 36hrs on battery. I've gamed,browsed,used camera,streamed HD video and been on mobile data for most of it...that's balanced but heavy use.
My only gripe is that Wi-Fi does seem to drain me more than mobile data(no tests yet to back that up) still coming from g3 this is incredible!
Who cares if the s7 gets better battery life this has a smaller battery that does better than other's in the g-series, and it's replaceable(unlike comparable devices) giving the device more longevity.
This battery life reminds me of my g2.

what apps did you disable/remove i struggle to get 3 hours screen on time and this phone is starting to really annoy me thanks in advance
Well, compared to the Galaxy S7 i own, the SOT honestly sucks. I barely get more then 3,5 hours with Medium usage. Removed most of the bloadware, disabled background data usage on most Apps and still i can't see alot improvement.
The most I ever got was 6 hours and 30 mins with 19 percent left. No Wi-Fi with LTE on, Bluetooth off and the screen no more than 35%brightness . I used to have the note 4 att version and only got 4.5 with every single bloat app disable. I have cm brower ,cm launcher no facebook just messanger and Google app running. I'm sure you guys won't believe it but I really get amazing battery life with this phone. I'm at 41 % with 3 hours and 30 mins and 11 hours 20 mins since I lasted plug it. I have the t mobile version and here are the apps I have disable.
Here are some screenshots
I really can't complaint with a mix of Wifi and LTE. It's not as insane as my S7 exynos but it last me through the day and I have the spare battery. I have not charged my phone in a couple of days now. Also standby time is the best I have ever seen on a smartphone.

WTH, the max SOT i manage to get is like 2hrs!
Currently battery at 32% after taking off charge 11 hrs ago.. SOT is 1hr 11m
Android OS is showing as using 19% battery.
I think it's time for a factory reset...
I think that will be my next purchase
3 hrs.

Sorry wrong thread, post removed.
Some say that its 6 hours, some say its 3. Thats a huge gap and i dont know who to believe, but 3 hours seems more legit considering that battery size.
Yeah i don't know how they're getting 5-6HRs SOT that's just crazy! Considering the Battery Capacity only 2800mah

More than 7 hours is definitely possible.
A lot have their phones now. Let's see your battery experience, please
Please state whether you have the exynos or snapdragon.
Thanks
I have to say, the battery has been pretty solid on my first full day of use (I only had a half day's use yesterday). 10 hours of talk time coupled with 4 hours of screen time, and getting 15 hours of battery is pretty good. I can't complain at all.
Note:
-Snapdragon
-WQHD selected
-Adaptive Power saving on
-I have wifi set to turn on and off automatically
-Bluetooth on (and in use the majority of the day)
-Link with Windows on
-Live wallpaper
-AOD on
-2 email accounts on push
-Screen brightness on auto
Let's have some more please
Just finished the learning stage so will be reporting my experience within a day or so.
Ok after the weekend it settled. I had bad battery life initially because I suspect syncing almost 8 thousand photos to the cloud took a hit. Fully charged and wifi on, for 3.5hrs, I lost 4%. That is amazing from my Note 9 losing 30% while sleeping. I mean no apps were used, idk how that happened lol.

Same here, it finally settled for me too. Yesterday I was on it all day. Taking pictures, Facebooking, watching YouTube, mostly surfing the Internet. It hit 0% and shut down with 9 hours and 50 minutes of screen on time. Now I was on WiFi 99.9% of that time, but still. I'm happy with that performance.

Great info, it's good to know those settings. That is very good battery life. WiFi or 4/5g?

Same here, it finally settled for me too. Yesterday I was on it all day. Taking pictures, Facebooking, watching YouTube, mostly surfing the Internet. It hit 0% and shut down with 9 hours and 50 minutes of screen on time. Now I was on WiFi 99.9% of that time, but still. I'm happy with that performance.

Forgot to mention, I have the N975U1
Today has been mostly wifi. I don't live in a 5G area but travel for a living, so I got the 5G version. Battery life is a little less without wifi,but not massively worse.

Reporting my results. Primarily on wifi.
Earlier this evening I threw it on the charger while I watched a movie. But before I did, I checked screen time. 4 hrs 14 mins with 65% battery left. That was mostly internet browsing, some YouTube, and some Facebook. All on WiFi. It seems the battery just gets better and better.
And by the way, off topic, I'm not sure what you all think of the haptic feedback of the N10+, but mine is just very nice and crisp. I turned up intensity just a notch in settings, but it just makes typing on this thing so nice.

I agree... Note 10+..is like... So fun to use... Well worth the update from note 9!
I lose about 2% overnight if I take it off the charger at 100% before bed. Big improvement over the 8-10% lost on my Note9. I'll post screen shots later as I get the battery down to a much lower percentage. I've had it since the 21st.... I'm highly impressed with the battery life. I'm on 85% and feel no need to charge before I go or today.

I see everyone is getting great results on WiFi. What about 4g/5g experiences?

A normal day usage..100% charged before leaving for work. Youtube, twitter, Amazon music used while travelling. I would say out of SOT of 4hrs, around 2.5 hrs would be on LTE. as an estimate SOT on only LTE should be in between 5-6hr range depending on your usage. On WiFi it will be 8-9hrs. I don't play games so for gamers SOT will be less ofcourse.
Think it's safe to say I might have a defective battery with my phone. It's an at&t branded phone. After I recharged it last night I took it off the charger and just let it sit by my bed I woke up this morning and I lost almost 11% in just standby...
My battery life is not great. Became worse after rooting. Better than my 4XL, but not getting "all day plus" battery life.
What are others experiencing?

I'm absolutely blown away. Every morning I have a routine where I go outside and have my coffee and chain smoke a few darts, read the news, look at memes and such and typically I'm using it about an hour and on my S21+ or Z Fold 3 I'd always be down to 93 or 94%. Today was no different and I was still at 100 after doing so. I then went to work and used Android auto so it stayed full until about 830 am when I took it off the charger. It's 745 pm and I'm at 80% with just a bit over 4 hrs sot. Didn't tweak any settings whatsoever to try and save battery.

Often but not always poor battery is dependant on what apps you have that are running in the BG or sending push notifications, etc. Some games like to do that and just destroy battery life. Facebook likes to kill battery that's for sure. That's really the only social media site I use regularly. I likely won't have many games on this. I'll jus my fold for games

Do you have AOD on? Lift to wake? Curious what settings you have

Yep everything on. The only setting I turned off was having wifi scanning. I like to enjoy and utilize all the features for the most part

Twitter is my only social media and no games. Time for BBS.
7h40 of SOT in 14 hours. Mostly wifi. No games, but messaging web and vidéo.
I was hoping better...
Also, with official 30w charger it did not reach 50% but 43 from 5% left.

Subjectively, battery life seems to be pretty cool. Nothing seems to drain particularly quickly and I've only had to charge a couple of times since Tuesday. Features such as lift to wake are all on. The only one that isn't is always on display as I never find that very useful when lift to wake is active.
Battery is absolutely fine for me. I've always charged my phone's at night anyway so as long as it lasts all day with my usage its good. It would last about a day and half if i wasn't charging each night. Screen on time has been between 5-7 hours with battery left of at least 40% each evening. I've turned off AOD this morning to see if that makes much difference in the next couple days as well.
Finally a positive thread hopefully with real experiences and no trolls.

Wow how can it differ so much from other people's experiences.. Something is definitely wrong or off. Maybe 5g?
I don't own this device but would be interesting to test out battery life after trimming most of the Google spyware/scam processes, GAPPs completely replaced and extreme overall de-bloating/trimmed setup for max batt. I'm guessing the results may be quite impressive...

Definitely. I feel Google now, aod, constant listening for background music and being alert for "Hey Google" increases consumption big time
Mine is getting better and better every day. Like everyone should know, it takes a few cycles. I already accepted the fact that it will not be as good as my P5.
