Do you plan on ordering the new Apple Watch Series 7 (2021) this September?

I have found the battery life on my S5 is terrible.

I sometimes have to charge it a few times a day. When I went out today it was at 100% but when I got home 8 hours later it was less than 50%

Hope the S7 is better
Have you checked the battery life? I checked mine recently for the first time. I’ve had this S4 since release day so I think it’s retained decent battery life. I use the workout app/NRC almost daily. I think WatchOS 8 has given it new life and speed as well.

That's amazing for an S4! My S6 (purchased release day) is only 90%! I've had "optimized charging" turned on since day one.

I thought mine would be terrible, but it’s not bad. This my daily driver s4 of 3 years.

Wow, that's pretty good. My S5 is at 83%, but the battery life on that has been terrible since day one. I still have an S4 that's at 89%.
 
Wonder why my S6 health is so bad. I do charge every night while I'm sleeping. While Apple would say charging doesn't affect battery health...I wonder if I'm "over charging". I also have two AW so one will often sit on the charger for a day or so. Maybe that's it.

My S4 is at 89%. I hope the S7 have decent batteries too lol

My S4 is at 91%. I started using it for sleep tracking with Watch OS 7 last year, I think. Doing pretty good. Trading it in to Apple in a couple of weeks though :)

Looking forward to the S7 upgrade!
90%? That’s cute. My S4 is hanging on for dear life.
