Battery life is terrible!

I do like the Galaxy 8 watch look. However, the big issue I have is the battery life. The battery does not even stay charged for a day. I have very few items on the watch. Just a few health items.This is a very big dissapointed as it is difficult to stop and charge for wat h while you are working.

Bought this for my wife, who wanted a smartwatch. She loves it! Easy for her to use, syncs with my phone and keeps her up to date on her activity and health.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I’m really impressed with how smooth and accurate this watch feels. Everything from tracking my steps to checking notifications works exactly as it should, and the design is sleek enough that I don’t feel like I’m wearing a gadget on my wrist.
It’s durable, feels solid, and the battery has been holding up well with all my daily use. I’m still exploring all the features, but so far the functionality and versatility make it a fun upgrade I actually enjoy wearing every day.
I would recommend this to a friend!
