Hi.
I have an Apple Watch series 6 bought new im May and today I checked the battery life and it’s 99% in only 2 months? I only use the charger that came on the box and a apple wall charger. Is it normal lose life so fast?
kind regards
Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7
Batteries are consumable products. As batteries age, they lose battery health. Going down 1 or 2% per month if you are using and charging the device daily is not a problem. People get too tied up in looking at battery health. I tell you that you do not really need to look at it until you start experiencing a problem with the battery holding a charge.
Hi :)
I understand that and I usually charge the watch 2 in 2 nights but I think that it’s a little early for a battery decrease 1% in 2 months. Normally it just get notifications and fitness when walking. My worries is if I get a unit with a defective battery. Because I would want to have it at least for 2 years.
Why would you have to have a defective device for 2 years? If you have a defective device and it is a manufacturing or other Apple problem, they replace it under warranty. However, as far as batteries are concerned, Apple does not identify a problem unless the battery gets to 80% or below by the end of the first year.
If you are not experiencing a problem with charging the battery, I wouldn't look at battery health until close to the end of the first year. Don't look and it won't bother you. The Watch will tell you if it is having battery issues by not holding a good charge.
Hello again:) I think you are just fine and your concern is fine as well. As fieryjack points out at 80% is when your battery needs to be replaced and you are a long way from that. Enjoy your new watch.
Yes. You’re right. Sometimes we see problems where there’s none. Thanks for the advise. I just got a little panicked when i saw that. Thanks ☺️

I shouldn't worry about 1%,when your battery health goes down to 80% it is recommended to replace the battery so your a very long way from that.
You're welcome.
