That’s a good point. Maybe 36-48 hours?

Even then you’re still charging every other day, so is that so much better than every day?

18->120 hours would be a real change, but that’s almost a 7x increase.



For me I need a routine. Charging daily works well for me, else I would want 7 days. I think Apple targeting super quick charging really alleviates the issue for me all together. I’m on an old series 4, and instantly preordered this one. I’m sure it is gonna feel like a whole new level of luxury compared to what I was already pretty happy with.


If you were on a 4 the speed difference, plus the bigger screen, are going to be amazing.

Enjoy it!


To me 72 hours is the right number.

I want to put that thing on in the morning on a Friday, get a text message from a friend about some crazy party of weekend event and be able to attend that to make it home Sunday night to get ready for work on Monday.


Apple Watch Ultra in low power mode should do it for you.
