How often do you charge your Gear?

[richv77]

I am thinking of buying a Gear and I wanted to know if it needs to be charged often. Thanks for your comments.

If I use my phone a fair bit during the day then every night.. But from 5am I still have 30% left at end of the day

About the same here. After a full day I have 40% left. No big deal to put on the charger at night.
My guess is that if you already wear a watch you will love the gear. If not... 50/50.

I charge at night when I sleep. I usually have at least 60 percent left at the end of the day but still, it would be stupid not to charge overnight

THE BEAST,,NOTE 3. SIZE IS EVERYTHING!!!

I charge it every night as the battery is at 30 to 40% by the end of the day.

Every other day seems to work for me, I only charge devices as needed.

I have mine on for about 10 hours each day. Email( Corporate and Personal), text, take a picture or two, and pick up a few calls. Normal email load is 80-100 a day on a work day. I have the screen timeout set to 7 seconds and use multiple watch faces. Brightness set to 4.

On a lower usage day like today, I just looked and I'm at 87% since breakfast this morning.

The Gear lasts a full 2 work days without charging. Like any of our devices, the screen display will always be the biggest power hog.

Just to add, it usually takes just 1-2 hrs to fully charge my GG.

Ive made it close to 3 days on a charge, but also try to charge it every night.

I'm usually around 30-60% remaining at the end of the day. I charge mine nightly.

I'm in the 70s by the end of an average day. I could probably easily go 2 days without charging, but because I charge my Note 2 every night, I charge the Gear nightly as well. My problem is battery life on the Note 2 since the 4.3 update (and perhaps getting the Gear). Nowhere near as good as it used to be, which was spectacular.

Bought it Friday & charged it. Started using it Saturday, but turn it off at night. It's Wednesday, & I have 8% left at 5:44 PM! I'll put it back on the charger for the first time tonight. I usually turn it on at 6AM & off by 10PM.

I charge my Gear every night even though it really doesn't need to be.

 

[blazingdisciple]

I probably use mine a lot less than others, but from having it a few days and playing with it, the battery life has been amazing. It's been off the charger for about 32 hours and I'm at 67%. I have only a few notifications being pushed, though, so I'm sure that helps a great deal.

I charge mine nightly, but I got 3 days out of it with minimal use. 2 1/2 days seems like the norm for me though. I'm cool with that.

I use my phone a lot during the day and my GG gets a lot of notifications. About 24 hours after a charge, I find the GG has about 45% charge. I usually put it to charge as I'm getting ready in the morning and it about 30 minutes to fully charge.
