I usually charge it when I wake up to track my sleep, but I forgot this morning. Now it’s almost midnight Saturday, and I still have 2% battery left after charging it yesterday morning. Crazy. And I keep the always-on display on. Cheers.
It lasts if you use it gently. Working out drains the battery fast, but it still lasts me the whole day, which is fine.

Tracking a 6-hour workout took my battery from 100% to 66%. That’s awesome for a regular model, not an Ultra. It can handle about 15 hours of workout tracking.

6 hours of workout tracking? Is that a marathon? My U2 can’t even last 45 minutes. It’s a weak watch.

The Ultra version would be perfect for you!

The S10 is enough; it has great battery life, and I like the smaller frame and slimmer body.

I get two days (morning to evening) with two 75-minute workouts. Pretty good.
Turn off noise alerts for even better battery.

I didn’t see that setting change the battery duration.

And let it listen for Siri. It will then stop using the microphone all the time.
Mine lasts two days before needing a charge.
Upgrading from Series 6 to Series 10 is a big improvement.
Using your battery this low all the time will reduce its overall capacity. Keep it charged.

True, it’s like a full cycle, and lithium-ion batteries don’t like being full or empty. Right now, I can manage with the 80% limit each day, which is great.

Is there a way to limit the capacity?

Who would think we’d be limiting our batteries in 2025?

I know it’s an option on iPhones. I was hoping it was possible for the watch too!
