See, that’s my issue too. Yesterday, I finished a 17 hour day with around 38%, but today my battery drained over 10% over my hour-long commute to work with literally no changes to settings.Battery life seems all over the place and I can't really figure out why. The past couple of days I'm seeing about 4%/hour. But today, nothing changed in use or settings, after 4 hours of use it was a 99%. Currently it's been on my wrist for about 7 or so hours and it's at 92%.
I wonder if there's some issue with a server(s) the watch connects to and if the server goes wonky the watch uses up a lot of battery trying to connect to it/sync data?
I have nothing as bad as reported, but some days my watch will drop from 100% five minutes after I take it off the charger, and other days it will stay at 100% for three hours. This is with no change in usage.
I'm at 84% with my watch being off the charger for two hours and not doing anything. I don't know what's happened with it but this is beyond unacceptable. I'm losing 10% per hour while literally just wearing the watch.
AOD On
Noise off
Background app refresh - limited to a few apps
This is really frustrating and I'm starting to get really close to dumping the Apple watch all together. I was getting pretty good battery life and then I woke up one morning to a totally dead watch and the battery life has been absolutely terrible ever since.
Am I the only one with terrible battery life since this update? I have the decible meter on as well as as the hourly ho ur notifications. Apple said this uses hardly any battery but I got up at 5 am with a full charge and now I’m at 9%
Remove all 3rd party apps, reboot and see how it does.I'm at 84% with my watch being off the charger for two hours and not doing anything. I don't know what's happened with it but this is beyond unacceptable. I'm losing 10% per hour while literally just wearing the watch.

Today I had full charge at 8:30am. Had to charge again at 3:30pm when it was down to 7%. Off the charger full around 5:30pm and already down to 13%. Any obscure tricks to try? This is driving me crazy.I have a Series 4 40mm GPS. I lose 10% charge an hour. After two Genius Bar visits and Apple Support agreeing that 8 hours of battery isn’t what it should be despite me doing all the right things (no background refresh, no Siri, no Noise, no Raise to Wake, unpair, restart, etc), I’ve had my watch sent back to me twice with “No issues found”. So incredibly frustrating. Attached image was taken with watch at 11%. I keep waiting for the magical update that will fix it but this has been going on since June.
