I was at best buy yesterday and the Apple Watch stated life is 18 hours or so, but all Samsung watches I saw usually state time in days like 8 days or so. One of my friends has a Samsung Watch and gets about 5 days battery life between charges, while his wife’s Apple Watch has to be charged every night before bed.

I’m just curious, what’s the difference that the battery life is so drastically different? Is it the screen, the features, or battery size? They both seem to do roughly the same thing from what I can tell.

Thanks!

    My Galaxy3 45MM only needed charging twice per week. My new Apple Watch S8 is a daily charge. But, it’s a different type of tech. Feels more like an extension of the computer and integrates so nicley in the Mac/Iphone system. But, the battery sucks - no way to sugar coat that regardless of functionality.

    I get over 2 days out of my Apple Watch Ultra. Same as I did from my Galaxy Watch 5 Pro.

    I get exactly the same “1 day with AOD On and 2 days with AOD off” with both my Apple Watch and my GW6.

    Dunno what kinda kool-aid they gave you to drink but there’s no way in hell an Apple Watch or a Galaxy Watch last more than 4 days. Not even the AW Ultra nor GW5 Pro. Unless you waste hundreds of dollars to use them in “watch only mode” that is basically the same functionality of a $15 watch.
