      Yeah got a galaxy watch 2 classic years ago and it needs charging every day now, and it sometimes randomly drains the battery in like 1 hour.

      But I’m honestly surprised of its longevity, it outlasted 2 phones

        Hell, my Watch 4 Classic needs to be charged daily as well, but I think it’s mostly because I have it continuously monitoring my heart rate + stress levels and I use the always on display setting extensively cause I want my watch to look like a watch.
