Apple Watch series 5 battery question.

[bonjourx]

Hello, I have an Apple Watch 40mm series 5. I checked the battery usage and I’m just wondering if it’s right or is it draining too fast? Currently it is 48%. According to the usage report, the standby time is 19 hours and 24 minutes, and I’ve only used it for 2 hours and 20 minutes, yet it is on 48%. Is that normal if I’ve only used it for 2 hours and it is down like that already?

You're getting pretty good battery life. Just under 2.7% per hour.

Standby is the time since you took it off the charger. Usage is a little vague but seems to be active use of the watch in some manner.

Yep that is fine for battery life

Very good life. You'll get more life than Apple specs at that rate.

Check the Terrible Battery Life thread. Lots of good tips in there and expectations managed.

There's a huge thread on here about battery life. Mine was terrible for 2-3 days. After upgrading and turning it on/off mine suddenly started acting similar to my S4 in terms of battery life. It's not an issue for me anymore.
