on 3/7 my android wear app updated on both my phone and Watch Sport. Since then I have noticed the battery life has been greatly improved. I am running this config on the watch:
- Radios off except Bluetooth (I turn the others on when needed)
- Always on Display off
I mostly just use the watch for notifications currently and would get through the day and have roughly 50% left before charging it again.
Now after an "update" I am now seeing an increase of over 20% left on my battery at the end of the day. I thought it was a fluke but have seen this the last three days now. Also to note, my phone battery life has also improved.
I suspect there must have been some changes to how the Bluetooth communication was handled as it obviously appears to be using less battery on both the watch and the phone.
Anyone else notice this?
