My phone feels about the same but watchOS 10 wrecked my Apple Watch. I used to end the day at 30-40% and now it’s barely hanging on by 7pm
I noticed the same on my Series 4, which, as old as it is, used to last me through the day with about 30% left by 8pm. I had to turn on the low power mode yesterday at noon with around 60% and then it died by 7pm
It’s about the same here for me. It’s just not made to handle that much color all the time.
I get the feeling that it’s not going to get WatchOS 11.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it didn’t get WatchOS 11. In fact, I think the Series 4 and 5 will be considered obsolete next year since they are using basically the same SiP.
My series 5 had had a big drop in battery life, too. I hope they figure it out because I do like the update.
I’ve seen the same with my series 6. I would usually end the day around 35% and now it is under 10%
Same here. Not sure I’ll update to a new Apple Watch though. Coros is looking really nice and affordable.
