      @hel790 happy to hear. having this issue as well, with similar numbers. 6 to 9% a day. Unit is new so I never got a chance to see it’s behavior prior to firmware update. Already tried soft reset but will try again. My other older S9 baro is as expected, about 1% day before and after latest firmware.

        Got my S9B today and disappointed about the battery drain. No message push to the watch, background light 5%, daily HR and sleep tracking on. From 18:15 to 23:30 the battery drained 14 % from 79 to 65 %. Have the newest fw on my s9b. Did a soft start too. Bt on too.

          Have you ever calibrated the battery or at least recharged it once ?

          As said before , you can contact support, maybe you have a defective unit.

            Here is a recent test I did:
            39h total time
            24/7 HR
            Standby on ~60% of the time
            Sleep tracking on
            30 min Indoor Exercise
            1.5h outdoor; GPS best; smartsensor
            Mobile connected iOS
            Battery 100% to 62%
            At this rate would last ~62h

              @sartoric no, I did not recharge the battery was charged 78% when I got the watch. How do you calibrate the battery?

                @Brad_Olwin the standby time is estimated to 60% or did you measure it? so with all functions on and a little bit of training the battery lasts just 2,5 days per charge 🧐?

                  Turn off sleep tracking, daily HR (this is the battery eater) and the backlight off and you will get your 8-10 days with around 4-6h performance GPS. Besides the battery meter is not proportional, I mean depending on the % you are seems the discharge is faster and then slows down, this I have seen it in a lot of devices with batteries. I would also wait a few charge-discharge cycles before take any conclusions.

                    full charge (let it connected for half an hour while at 99/100%)
                    full discharge (let it shut down)
                    full charge

                      This is true, I had everything on and did a few exercises. The 24/7HR, continuous connection to mobile and sleep tracking take some toll on the battery. Without those or with just mobile connection the watch will go much longer.

                        Hello everyone,

                        I would like to know your battery life, or compare if the way my battery is draining is standard (before I possibly contact support).
                        In the settings below I have a battery level of 20% after 4 days (approx 120 hours). During these 2 days I didn’t measure any activity, thus only drove in smartwatch mode.

                        • list itemBrightness - Low
                        • list itemBacklight off, Standby mode off
                        • list itemBluetooth - active incl. notifications from phone
                        • list itemHR on wrist - on 24/7
                        • list itemSleep tracking - on
                        • list itemDo Not Disturb function - active 7h overnight
                        • list itemWatchface - dark
                        • list itemPower saving mode - off

                        I will add that the watch was purchased 14 days ago and updated to the latest firmware.
                        I have tried soft reset, but not hard one - I will try to perform.

                        What I just would like to know if the behaving is standard one, or should worry.

                        Thank you in advance for your feedback

                          @Tomáš-Lízl I think that the S9 with 24h HR and sleep enabled should get you to 5/6 days without activities, so more or less what you see now.

                            @isazi nope, sleep+HR+1h of activity daily leads to 4.5 days for me.
