      Jerrey, 07 Sep 2025Why Watch companies keep on bumping Brightness, 1,000 nits ... morehigher max brightness displays means that they last longer without burn in at the same brightness as before. it also means less power consumption at 1000nits. theres also places that have very intense direct sunlight, and need brighter screens.

        HyperionBurn, 07 Sep 2025yep 100% i had one of those 7-14 day battery life watches ... moreBattery life is better compared by watch 6 series. But watch 6 classic looks so good that I don't replace it with any smartwatch.

          Jerrey, 07 Sep 2025Why Watch companies keep on bumping Brightness, 1,000 nits ... moreJust because you want something does not mean everyone wants the exact same as you. 1000 is not a lot in broad sunlight

            HyperionBurn, 07 Sep 2025yep 100% i had one of those 7-14 day battery life watches ... moreI think it should last 1-2 days, depending on if you use AOD and raise to wake. I use my Watch Ultra with AOD on and raise to wake off and get 3 days battery life that way, so the Watch 7 should last a bit shorter

              SShock, 07 Sep 2025All day battery* *18 hoursAll day, they did not mention the night xD

                Don't like square watches and don't like another device require daily charging

                  xPandamon, 07 Sep 2025Let me guess, it will once again barely last 24 hours?All day battery*

                  *18 hours

                    Lister, 06 Sep 2025Agree with all of this, these watches are feature rich but ... moreyep 100%
                    i had one of those 7-14 day battery life watches (huawei watch fit 3)
                    honestly felt really good to not have to charge it everyday+it was really cheap and did everything i needed it to
                    it ended up dying so I'm gonna try a galaxy watch 7 which is on a really good sale right now. wonder how the battery will be

                      Why Watch companies keep on bumping Brightness, 1,000 nits is more than enough already.

                      What people want is bigger and longer Battery life, bumping that nits have opposite effect. Look what happen to Garmin 570, 970 and recent Fenix 8 Pro series, they short battery life than their predecessor.

                      Companies, please do surveys and know what people want. Definitely brighter screen is no longer one of it.

                        Let me guess, it will once again barely last 24 hours?

                          HyperionBurn, 06 Sep 2025theyre handy for quickly checking notifs and setting timers... moreAgree with all of this, these watches are feature rich but suffer for it. Good for workouts and being out and about without your phone, but the batteries don't last long enough.

                            but yeah thats all i use it for aside from workouts

                              Its strange Apple can optimize their software to achieve class leading or competing battery life against phones with far bigger batteries, but they can't do the same for their smartwatch.

                                  I guess "good job Samsung" for making a brighter display, but anything new from Apple itself?

                                    While smartwatches are cool and fun they have short battery life. And aren't very necessary devices unless you use them for gym.

                                      Akinaro, 06 Sep 2025Most people keep it low as possible just to have one day of... morewell, people should buy 2 of them then...

                                        The keynotes are similar: each year they present features already present in previous years.
