    Are you not recording any activities / using any GPS?

    Obviously everyone has different use cases and experiences so I don’t want to disregard other experiences it just seems so far out of reach for me compared to the experiences I have had across 5 or 6 different models of their watches over the years.

    I have mostly used different iterations of the forerunner range and a Vivosmart which was fucking trash IMO.

      I use it as a step counter and a sleep tracker every night (with plugin), don’t use any of the built-in activities though

        That makes more sense I guess as I know the GPS is a major battery drain. Maybe that model is also better with battery in general as I know for sure none I have ever owned would last that long just using it as you do. :)

          It is the gps, took mine on a trip to peru and forgot the charger. Lasted the whole week starting at ~60% until the final day when we did a hike to machu pichu and I started tracking the activity, and it went from 10% to empty in an hour.
