The shortest amount of time I have gotten out of the watch was approximately 14 hours with 29% battery remaining. I was setting it up and showing off , generally using it much more than normal. If you are worried buy a $15 Qi charger and take it with you, but I really don't think it is necessary. I have been wearing a watch every day for 30 years and I always take them off at night, so the process of taking it off and literally just setting it on the charger is as simple as setting it down on your dresser. I cannot stress how easy it is, if you are worried , I don't believe that there is anything to worry about.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Quite a few sources say with NORMAL PROPER USE of the product after the day is over they're ending with around 40% to 70% left over. Having a Gear Live watch previously ending at 11pm at around 40% sounds about right for these Android Wear watches. Most claiming sucky battery probably have the screen "ALWAYS ON" feature activated. Screen on time would kill ANY device. Turn that off, and the life should be fine on it.. See this video http://youtu.be/mWtwEyQ5sQM
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.considering that this is not a real watch but a wearable disguised as a watch, you have to be careful. actual battery life depends on the person and what you do with it. if you wear it like a watch, and only tell time with it and you dont get many notifications, id say about 6 hours. if you use it only when you need it, you could get days with only one charge.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I put it on at 7 AM and take if off at 9 PM, it normally has 60-70% battery left.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Seems the battery is tempermental. I'm past that period since I had a G Watch and a Gear Live and noticed its hit or miss on any given day. One day it lasted me quite awhile, and the other I had to charge it twice :(
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.After two consecutive days, battery life seems stable at 14 hrs. This is with ambient screen on.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I haven't done a real test, but I put it on at 0630 and still have 50% plus when I get home around 1730. I have cheap 15.00 QI chargers that it works with so I really haven't cared about the "battery doesn't last a week" issue. I suppose if I worked more remotely I might care, but there is always ways for me to charge.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
