I'm at 34 minutes usage and 5 hours, 48 minutes standby with 89% battery remaining, is that normal?

That's actually very good if you ask me. 6 hours of no use can be as much as 3% per hour while on your wrist. Sometimes I can go 2+ hours with the battery still at 100% but it usually evens out and be around 80% 5-6 hours later with light use. 89% with some usage and over 7 hours off the charger is great to me.I'm at 34 minutes usage and 5 hours, 48 minutes standby with 89% battery remaining, is that normal?

I think the battery charge may be why folks are having problems updating their new s0 watches. I noticed when I was restoring my watch the battery was depleting even when I had it plugged in. If your battery is pretty dead I could see it failing because it doesn't have enough power to continue.So I don't know if my apple watch read my post but I let it charge all night and day and came back from work and it paired with my phone right away and then asked if I wanted to set up as a new watch or restore from backup. I restored from a OS 3 backup that wasn't currently paired and it came out set up just like my other watch. Has my watch faces and everything. Really painless so maybe they just have issues at low charge or take a really long time to charge. Really enjoying the watch though it is a completely different look and I really like it.
It worked on the 1st try with the new Apple Watch today! I would advise anyone from buying open box at best buy. Its been a long 24 hours.
I bought one the other day and mines been flawless. Oddly my battery's been better than the series 1 I had. Could just be how I'm using it.

Series 2 has a bigger battery so if you don't use gps then it should last longer even with a brighter displayThe battery on my new original series watch from Best Buy is better than my Series 1 also. The series 2 I returned however had better battery life than both of them.

Hopefully the return to full price is temporary. Can't see anyone paying that much with the S1 and S2 out now.
There were a couple versions I had my eye on but looks like I'll just wait and see if they bring the discounts back.
It was higher yesterday.They are still on sale I just checked. Not many options in the 42mm, but there some SS with leather loop 42mm for $350

Honestly, with only an $80 difference between Series 1 and Series 0, I would think that Series 0 should be much cheaper than it is for what you get. Series 1 is a much smarter buy for most people.

Just an update on the dead battery discussion, I'm now getting what I think is stellar batter life on the 38mm SS link that was completely dead out of the box. At 10% right now.
I rather spend more, have alum, and a better functioning Watch.
