    I’ll preface by saying that’s certainly excellent battery life and it’s awesome you’re stoked on it! I’m all for it.

    But that being said. How are you guys getting such insane battery numbers and still using the watch to its potential? I have AOD on and I don’t sleep track. Background app refresh is off. I use it as a cycling computer for MTB about three days per week using Work Outdoors. During that period, I’m away from my phone for about three hours at a time on cellular. I average 36-48 hours on a charge and I’m happy with that. I see no other way to get these numbers without disabling or not using the features that make the Ultra attractive in the first place. Just my observations. The important part is that you’re happy with your watch and again, I’m truly stoked that you’re enjoying it.

    Well that’s what happens when you buy a smart watch meant for deep sea diving and extreme sports, and you sit in one spot all day gaming

      I primarily bought it because of the extra battery and the bright screen, didnt know i have to chuck myself off a cliff on a daily basis just to qualify for an apple watch ultra purchase🤷🏼‍♂️

        I’m planning on getting the ultra 2. But first I gotta start doing pull up’s so I can climb some mountains when I wear my watch. 🦾🤙🏼

        Am I ready for the life style change? Nah.
