Same issue
Question marked as
This is not unusual for the first few days after a software update. Loading the new version and showing you a working device is only the first step, there are a whole load of behind-the-scenes processes to clean up the old system files and reindex the file system. Expect normal battery life to resume after a day or two.

Add me to the list. My watch went from 100% down to 4% in four hours. You can almost watch it going down.
Same here - I was charging my Apple Watch Ultra every other night. Now it's not making to the evening of the 2nd day.
I did the hard re-set. Only fixed it temporarily. Back to draining alarmingly fast.
Just tried unpairing and repairing. We’ll see if that helps.
Made it worse. It would be fabulous if anyone from Apple would actually address this issue!!!
I have the same issue. Apple Watch 7 updated to 10.1.1. The battery used to last >24 hours, now it is less than 12 hours.
Same with mine
Mine has gone from 100% to 31% in only 3 hours.
