Impressions about Fenix 5 series update 15.10

Well, first review to the new version installed. The delay from 3rd party watchface was solved.

After the installation, I deleted the watchface, restarted and installed again. At this momment I'm charging full the watch to review if the battery drain was improved.

"Crystal" watch face is not working with 15.10. If you select it, watch changes back to Garmin own watch face after few seconds. "Time flies" watch face works ok.

One called battery widget.

Another thing that I discovered after the update is that if charge the watch with normal charge or external battery, the first 2% of battery disappears very fast.

Instead of this I charge the watch with the computer and the Garmin Express opened. After the charge was completed, the reduction of the battery was seemed normal. Maybe is my paraonia...

Have exact same issue. Even restore defaults on Fenix 5x with full reinstall of Crystal does not resolve

Did see power drain issues with the last 14.x beta -- but with 15.10 they're gone. Nothing else changed that I can detect, but they fixed something that they broke in the last 14.x series update.

Another person Crystal isn't working for.

Crystal was my favourite watchface.
Temporary fix is to select Crystal from watchfaces and don’t Apply. It will remain on Crystal as long as the Select button isn’t depressed.
