Despite these frustrations, tips for improving battery life are shared, specifically recommending turning off the always-on display for better endurance. The author expresses a temptation to switch to alternative smartwatches with better battery performance.
I turned mine off for a weekend and was surprised to find that it greatly enhanced endurance.
Each time I upgrade to a new version of WatchOS, my battery life seems to go from lasting as long as two days on a single charge to barely making it through one.
Experiencing these Apple Watch battery woes only tempts me to ditch it and buy one of those heavy-duty Garmin smartwatches.
I'm unsure when the problem originated and how it can be resolved.
