Just curious about any U2 users who've had theirs since rollout.
I've purposefully tried not to allow it to charge all night, or rather get it to realise what time I generally tend to get up each morning (6.30-40am during the week), because I didn't want to leave it to charge for those few nights constantly until it learnt the score.
Up until around May, my battery health remained at 100%. I would use it every other day or so for a workout, during that time I'd listen to a podcast on the official Apple app, or maybe Audible. I don't use a lot of third party apps apart from ADT security, FotMob etc. Then, in May it dropped to 98%. I took it to Apple because I equated that to being quite a sudden drop and though I know they all degrade over time, this seemed quite a high amount all at once. (I'd check it every few days). I did used to have the latest beta, whatever that may be, on but when I took it to Apple they (obviously) suggested removing that, which I did. I guess it's not just about charging properly, but also about the amount of 'work' the battery has to do when using betas, but I'm still a bit concerned.
I'm now on 18.1 beta for my phone (it gets changed every year) and I'm not nearly as protective about that. I leave it on all night, though of course by now it will have long ago learnt my cycle. That too is at 98%. My watch, however, recently dropped to 97. I'm not sure what else I can do to keep the battery as healthy as possible. I've even started bringing my phone with me to do the heavy lifting when I go for a run, instead of the watch, but I wanted to compare my percentage to people who are also in month 11 or so of their U2, and also what their use cases are?
Apologies if this has been asked before. I have looked but obviously this is partly a time and use question, and earlier questions won't be that relevant anymore.
Thanks
