My friend's outstanding battery life. How?

No one believes me. I know. I am the most minimalist at heart. I do answer phone calls, reply to texts, read/delete emails. My 42mm stainless steel goes for almost a week. I charged my Apple Watch Saturday night, last night when I turned it off to go to bed it was at 80% same as my iPhone.

You set your watch to airplane mode most of the time? That's like impossible battery life :eek:
 
What face and complications do you have? I'm starting to think that complications impact battery life.

I'm not a heavy user. It is what it is, a Watch. occasionally i'll check the time. when I feel a notification I will read/reply/delete. I rarely use my third party apps. I have them, but never use them. Mostly through glances.
 
I went about 18 hours yesterday and when I finally plugged it I had about 25% left, that was after an hour and half workout. I'm basically pleased with that, I would prefer a higher percentage but overall, if I put it power reserve mode, it would have lasted the night.

Yesterday I had 40% left at the end of the day , that the lowest I had with watchOS 2 beta 5 now hahaha.
I have it on for 3 hours and 10 minutes, and its going strong on 96% now.

Nice, I've been kicking around the idea of the beta but ultimately I figure I can wait a month (or two).
