            I am still waiting for smartwatches with bigger battery capacities,which make even the battery of Ultra unacceptable.

                  Anonymous, 13 Sep 2022for 2022 this is unacceptablePlease do mention other brands from Huawei,Samsung,Xiaomi etc that offer in their smartwatches batteries larger than 590mah.

                  We are waiting....

I don't want an ugly dumb blank watch on my wrist and wriggling it around to light up is so stupid. Usually when you don't need it it's constantly blinking and when you do need it, you're wrestling with it to turn on. It's dumb. I have AOD without wrist activation and the info is on it at all times no matter the angle or how I hold my hand. I can even glance at it in a stealthy way at a boring meeting instead of obviously waving with hand around to activate it.

                        as the device is serving your interest, why should it waste battery power (however minute the power consumption and efficient it is when handling AOD)
                        lift wrist to wake the screen is more than enough

                          why buy a watch that needs charging all night every night?
                          both apple and samsung are doing it wrong... After only 30 minutes research you can find a huawei watch that stays charged for a week or more...

It is twice expensive than the apple smartwatch! And let's not forget. The UI in garmin smartwatches is not that great.

                              Garmin simply cannot complete in all those areas.

                              On top of that Apple watch have the style, and strap size remain unchanged, so people build up on their strap collections. Much like SWATCH watches.

                                Garmin watches with solar power last way longer (measured in days)....people should be more aware of garmin and less of apple overpriced crap

                                  Chixby, 13 Sep 2022Honestly battery life is the biggest problem in apple watch... moreEvery watch I've seen had terrible AOD. It was either entirely different watch face for AOD or you couldn't just configure it the way you want it. All Apple Watches since version 5 have fully customizable watch faces that are identical for AOD mode. Maybe that has changed "recently", but it's hard to tell since literally NO reviewer ever bothers to explain that. In the beginning almost no reviewers even mentioned if AOD is available and now no one mentions what kind of AOD is it. Is AOD really that unimportant for everyone? I don't get it. I refused to buy Apple Watch before it got AOD, blank watch is just so silly and useless...

                                      you are going to forget to charge a device that you use everyday, if that device can last you more than 2 days?
                                      I charge my watch every Sunday evening before I sleep, even if it can last 10 days to 2 weeks, never missed charging once

                                        36 hours (60 hours on stingy, errr... low-power mode) is so bad for a rugged style watch
