Anyone else getting increaswd battery drain and glitches on 13.22 again?

I do not have any of the issues you mention. Have you down a long power down reset as suggested by many post a FW update?

Yes same here. Maximum 5 days with one battery load. Only smartwatch mode. 

For me, the watch develops faster only when I have sensor search on (chest belt, Tempe and bluetooth headphones), so I always turn it off.

I think I notice an increase in battery consumption since 5-6 months ago.

But I can still live with it. 

But so far no major bugs with 13.22. Fingers crossed.

I notice it once in a while/per charge. After the charge battery lasts, it loses I guess less than 4.5% a day...and then happens a period where it loses couple of % in a couple of hours. The watch is always in airplane mode. This morning it was on 44%, now 5-6 hours later is on 41% without touching a single button during that period. A bit frustrating.

I have the watch for 1 month now, so no historical data to compare. But I reviewed my activities last week, calculate the expected usage (given the  information from Garmin). It should be somewhere about 54%, but in real it is 73%. Next charge session I will look at it again.

How bad is your battery drain issue like ?

its erratic but typically goes down by about 10% overnight with no usage other than background HR etc monitoring. it doesn't actually seem to be any worse during the day when in normal use which is really weird - its like the watch keeps doing everything even if you're not using it.

eg i charged it just under 24 hours ago now and its showing 79%, about half that drain was overnight. no activities, minimal use, default settings. this is a near new watch after garmin replaced mine in a desperate attempt to get me to stop complaining!

so on that basis you're looking at about 5 days use max with no activities rather than the specified 15. throw in some gps use and you're probably down to about 3 days.

i call that pretty bad

1) It's good you return back the watch. Now they can experiment with the watch and find the root cause.

2).Since your watch is newly setup, probably wait for a few more days when all the syncing is done.

3) Do you switch on the spo2 ? If no, it's quite massive drain then. I switch on spo2 at night. Over the 24 hours period, I think my battery drain is about 0.5% per hour or 12% per day.
