First impressions

Oi!…hahaha. 

I’ll tell the old anxiety to take a hike! Something I’ve been trying to do since last night…thanks for the reply though. 

Great way to track the battery life is the Battery Graph widget by Cheurch, but as I can see, the support for 965 is still not there.

I received the 965 today and at some moments the battery drain is high. I think it happens when you change activity datafields from the phone. After (hard) reset it looks fine again. Let's see the coming days 

I'm testing mine. Charged it to 100%. Screen set to NOT always on (smart watch mode only)..I won't do any activities on it until the bettery runs out...will I get anywhere near the advertised 23 day

Probably, as I have awful luck. Seen one post where someone took over 7 hours to drop from 92 to 90…that would be 4 hours for me. 

The first handful of charge-cycles on something like a watch might be fairly inaccurate. It's going through updates, tackling initial setups, processing extra information to build your fitness profile, etc. Additionally, it's likely that a user will be touching their brand new watch to explore things more often than once it's been on your wrist for a few weeks. Lastly, I wouldn't be surprised if it takes a few cycles for the watch to get it's calibration of what each battery percentage actually means. I'd recommend folks give their watches a few weeks to settle in and get a better gauge of how they perform battery-wise.

You’re right, I suffer with anxiety and worry about stuff far too much. I really shouldn’t buy new things hahahah. 

The watch lasted about 6.5 days before the battery died. This was with AOD on and over 4h of GPS workouts, oh and using a HRM strap for about half of the activities. I'm hopeful it will last 7 days for this next charge cycle as there will be less of me tinkering with the settings!

I’m looking at less than that with AOD off n a potential for 1-2 hours gps activities…but I need to remember that activities will alter battery drain
