6.1 beta users...any difference in battery life?

[Johnhimm]

Beta 2 has been great. Watch at 100% 8am used all day at work with always on. Its 4pm and im at 81%

 

[FrancITA]

Wow. Second day with 6.1. First day was not good. Today, first hour 0% of drain. I hope it will continue in the right way.

Beta 1 was better then Beta 2 I would say.

Watch still lasting til 23:00 even with a 40 minute workout...so will do

how is peoples battery life when without your phone in cellular?

Think it is all back to normal now. 4 hours, 9% loss. AW5 44mm LTE AOD on

After a bit of drain on indexing, the first full day has been very good. Just about to put it on charge and it is still at 72%

Beta 2 seems very good!!!

🙂 I'm on B2 and always wait until I have at least one report of "Installed ok, did not bork my watch" lol

Does B2 or B3 restore the new watch faces and colors from 6.0 that went missing in B1?

B2 restored the Meridian face for me on my SS. Not sure if any Nike faces were missing and restored.

So is it safe to say 6.1 may fix the battery drain drastically?

Anyone for testing new Beta 3 on AW5 ??

I installed beta 3 on my AW 5 GPS model and the battery died in less than 10 hours.

AOD on
raise to wake off
noise off
medirian face

I also updated to the latest iOS beta today on my 11 Pro so not sure if that had anything to do with poor battery life today.

hopefully tomorrow gets better

Been running beta 3 for over a day now. So far battery life seems as good if not better than beta 2.

Hello!
has anyone tested whether or not the Noise detection on has major or minor impacts on the battery life of 6.1?

 

[FrancITA]

Do you have the same issue?

My battery is worse with b3 🤦🏻‍♂️

I have Made a clean installation that’s why maybe my battery is not good and there are not icon into circles

 

[rbart]

I have installe 6.1b3 over 6.0.1

No big differences with battery. It's almost the same as 6.0.1, but not bad for me

It’s a beta! Report it to Apple and move on, or come off the beta program.

With beta 3 my battery is the same and maybe even better than b1 and b2. Also, I don't have the issue with the missing button labels when replying to messages...maybe your issue is specific to that language.
