Battery LIfe

Very good, similar what I get when I enable airplane and cinema mode at night.

@olymay that’s a stellar result!!

I think mine could get to that result if I ever let it go down to 5%

I tend to top it up at around 30%

@jantikainen I didn’t notice any appreciable difference of turning on Aeroplane mode over night. And it’s one more toggle to turn on and off, so I never bother. Cinema mode puts it into do not disturb and turns the screen off, which is all I really want.

@binoworld-uk very similar to me, I tend to pop mine on charge when I shower and shave etc. and this is usually more than enough to keep it topped up. I try to cycle most electronics between 20% and 80%, but occasionally I like to do a full charge and discharge, as it helps the software stay calibrated. I don’t normally pay any attention to how long it takes, but as the watch was taken off the charger at exactly 1100 (was pure coincidence) I thought it would be dead easy to measure the battery life. And I was right

I’m happy to see that the battery life is as good as ever - and if anything is better than it ever has been

@olymay I do the same happy 30% to 80% keeps its chemical reaction nice and strong & prolong the longevity of the capacity.

I’m sure this has been discussed already in this forum so sorry for a possible double posting/question (at least I didn’t create a new topic )
Has anybody been using S7 for downhill skiing?
What would be the expected battery life, 5-6 hours maybe?
I know I would anyway lock the screen and keep the watch under my sleeve without glancing it. I would assume that GPS has to be set to best.

@jantikainen I have used the S7 for Ski Touring. If you do not use the map and the screen is mostly on low power mode you should get a full day or 6-8h of activity.

@Lluís-Gou - you should get longer than that - were you using fused GPS - and or were you using maps?
