Same for me. Battery goes down in hours. 19.10 everything was fine.

Solution for me?

Got a new Polar Grit x.

this is a firmware for the 5X version, and there is no Display folder in the betafirmware for 5

UPDATED 7/14/2020:

If you watch shows 3.30(!) when going to Settings > About, please use Garmin Express to update it to version 3.40.

If fast battery drain continues after going to Display v3.40, if you are willing to provide additional information that our engineers will be using to help resolve the issue quicker, please send me a Private Message with the note you continue to experience fast battery drain.

Thank you!
