I've been very happy with the battery life of my S3, which will easily go past two days without a charge if it has to. Until yesterday. I had to spend longer in my car than normal (I work from home, so driving isn't something I do a lot of right now) and, in about 90 minutes of accumulated driving time, my watch went from > 90% to < 10%.

The watch is synced to my phone which is synced to my car. There must be something else happening to drain the battery like that; is the watch trying to sync directly with the car too? Does it make a difference when I plug my phone in to the car for CarPlay?

All comments welcome.
