Got my 45mm Apple Watch S7 in Nov '21. This is probably my 4th Apple Watch, so I'm familiar with battery degradation.
My battery health is at 89%, but the watch really only makes it about 16 hours on a full/nearly-full charge. I try to only charge to ~90% to preserve battery health, and I do have Optimized Battery Charging to ON.
An example of how bad it is: I went to bed at 11pm last night with battery at 35%, and I woke at 5am to find the watch was dead.
You guys getting ~18hrs on a full charge?
I have AC+ until Oct '24. I'm tempted to call up Apple and really press for a replacement, but since my health is a 89% (ironically the same as my charge state in my screenshot), I don't want to waste my time if Apple is being very strict about the 80% health 'rule'.
Recommendations?
