From a full charge at about 10pm at night I’d wake up at 85-90% at 5am the next morning. Today from 100% I woke up with 40% at about 7am. Doesn’t last the whole day (no activity) it was fine with 17.1.1. Watch is on WatchOS 10.1.1

    I had this exact problem and no matter what I disabled, it would drain in 4-6 hours.
    I did a complete factory reset and that’s fixed the problem.

    Its 73% after being worn for about 10 hours including a workout. I think I’m repping a series six

    Same thing happened with mine. I thought I was just imagining things but I feel so validated now.

    Every single update people are surprised again by battery drain. Every. Single. Update

    Don’t you mean watchOS 10.1.1 ? Which is the latest iteration of the OS on the watch.

    I’ve been rejecting the latest update for the past few weeks. Every time I think maybe I’ll update, someone posts about battery drain with a later version. This is ridiculous.

    Ugh, I updated to 17.2.1 yesterday and noticed at end of day my Series 8 was at 19%. Normally it’s more like 50%. I thought it was a fluke until I found this thread.

    Prior to WOS10 my AWU would last 5-6 days (lots of background running apps disabled, WiFi and cell off unless needed, AOD off, no info watch face, many other settings adjusted to achieve this). Since 10 update best usage is 3.5 days but often shorter. All setting remain the same but it just doesn’t last like before. Battery health is 99% charge watch and phone on Apple brand dual usb 35w charger with both their brand of braided cables. I get why my 12 pro battery only last a day at best and that leading me to eye that 15pro. Shouldn’t be the case with my AWU1 to the AWU2.
