My Sw6 classic - after the update, the battery lasts about 20 hours, instead of 40-44 hours as it was before...

Should I reset it to factory settings? I lose many settings and information...
...
In the meantime I did the wipe cache partition and the battery consumption went back to normal (approx. 40-44 hours, at my style of using the watch)

Is it worth trading in my Pixel watch 2, for the Galaxy watch 6 Classic, or should i wait for the 7 Classic? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Since the Watch 7 presentation is just around the corner in July, you might want to wait to see if the new Watch 7 features would be worth the additional cost to you.

My Husband's & my Watch 6 Classics have been solid performing watches with the hiccup of not possessing the greatest battery life. (2½ days with turning them off at night)

The top of the line Watch 7 (Ultra) sounds like it might be a bit pricey. It's supposed to be larger in size, have a new shape, bigger battery, more memory & includes other new features which of course, are still rumors.

Thanks for the feedback. I think that I'll wait. I'm not a fan of big watches, so maybe the Galaxy 7 or classic will be right for me. My Pixel watch 2 is 41mm, so maybe 43mm would be just right.
