Samsung Watch battery life!

[waxpigeon]

Lately both mine and my wife's Samsung Watches aren't holding their charge very long!

I took.my watch off charge at 1:30 am and at 7:30 am it only has 2hrs 11mim battery life left!!! It NEVER holds its charge for more than a few hours.

What the hell is going on???

Hi @waxpigeon 

It depends on how you use it. It is a watch battery not a mobile phone battery.

Thanks,

Hi @Northerner 

I'd say I use it normally, tell the time, answer the occasional text/call, record a Parkrun.

But lately it just doesn't hold its charge!!!

It's already died at 7:53 am!!! 

Lasted a grand total of 6 hours 23 minutes!!! What good is that???

Hi @waxpigeon

Welcome to the community.

Which model Samsung Watch are you using?

Hi @Christopher_G 

It's the Galaxy Watch 42mm. I'm not happy at ALL.

[Christopher_G]

OK thanks, @waxpigeon.

Did you purchase it directly from EE? If so, when was that (roughly)?

I'll do my best to help.

@Christopher_G yes I did purchase the watch direct from EE. 

When I upgraded my phone in February I added the watch to my account to.

I was happy at first (despite them sending me the wrong watch! I was expecting the Active2!).

. . .but it is unusable now.

Has you recently updated the watch firmware.

I have the same watch and getting 3 days out of mine.

Samsung quote 7 days but that's only if everything is turned off and its a watch only and you only look at it like once a day.
