I updated my AW 4 to WatchOS 7.5 in the afternoon yesterday. The update went well. At lunch today I took a 50 minute walk and just now, at 1440h in the afternoon, the watch hit 10%. The battery is basically new and I normally have 60% when I go to bed so something's afoot.
Has anyone else noticed increased battery drain in 7.5?
Cheers

Hi pullman,
Thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities.
We see the concern with the battery life of your Apple Watch. Since the watchOS was just updated you may want to give the battery a couple of days to let the updates running in the background complete installing.
If you’re still seeing a significant decrease in battery life you may want to take a look at your settings, to make sure nothing changed with the update. In case you should need it, see Apple Watch Battery and Performance.
Reach back out if we can help further.
Take care!

My Apple Watch battery has started to drain too quickly with nothing seemingly being used (down 40% this morning and I haven't used it for anything other than checking the time). It has latest update. Did you get a solution?
It actually seems to have sorted itself out automatically. Perhaps it was what Jeff said above, that updates had to be run in the background. My watch is back to normal behaviour now. I hope you find a solution.
It has been close to a month now, since i updated my apple watch 5 to OS7.5.
Battery behavior is same. It drain so fast...
Tried unpair and multiple time restart...still it is not solved.
Any fix or patch update is expected?
Thanks Jeff. I'll monitor the situation and hope it resolves itself.

Even the charging takes more time than usual
Thank you for the fast response. I now feel hopeful mine will sort itself out as yours did.
