Reading a lot of people complaining of 30 percent per day battery usage on the 47mm with very little use. How are people finding the 51mm? Thanks.

Reading a lot of people complaining of 30 percent per day battery usage
Where? It’s more likely the case that the early buyers are not taking into account the energy usage in setting up the watch…
So why start a new thread? And my point still holds, the watch has not been used long enough for a proper determination of battery usage.
I’ve had my 51 3 days. It’s awesome. The first day it drained faster because I played with it and set it up. Looking great so far.
Battery level dropped from 96% to 64% after 4 days. Fourth day of use. Including two strength trainings, two runs including one Long Run with GNSS + multi, 1 mountain hike 4h GNSS + multi. AoD only while running. For everyday use, turning on the screen with a gesture, other activities with a gesture. Hiking almost all the time on the map, but the screen turned on with a gesture. Lots of configurations and settings, so a lot of fun to start with. Pulse oximeter turned on during sleep, touch with lock function, button vibration, notifications turned on without sound, brightness at the lowest level (and that's how the light sensor works).
I guess nobody read my post about stellar battery life on my F8 51mm. With AOD on and no GPS but a lot of notifications I get around 4-5% drop every 24 hours. This is on par or even better than my F7x Pro 51mm MIP. Outstanding so far.
my 51mm has been really good during the day, but found it dropped 10% each night when I'm not wearing it at all and have focus on. Tried a soft reset today to see if that works. During actual use it has been great. Had a 7x prior and never had battery decline overnight like this.
Update - soft reset worked
battery on amoled 51mm is far excellent after 4 days, 4 activities ( bike, walk , run , walk) in total 7 hours i still have 84% battery and watch indicated that in "watch mode" they survive next 27 days. i have smart GPS, with multiband. part of 1st charge i made full setup so lot of display play. so far so good,
