Anyone else notice improved battery life after the October update?

I've noticed that my Gear Live battery is at 48% after a full day (6:30am-11:00pm) at brightness level 3, after the update. Before I was regularly seeing 18-19% after a full day. Anyone else see this marked improvement?

I'm sorry,but I've got the opposite ,my battery is the worst ever on any devise I've ever owned and most are samsung products. It's going to be a good if I get more than 3 hours on full charge.

Wow, sorry to hear that. There has been an improvement in mine. No stats to back that up but when I check battery remaining during the day its not using nearly as much.

Mine lasts all day. Unplugged at 7am and back in around midnight. Usually with 40% or so left. Have an always on watchable and running wear launcher. Something seems wrong if it's that bad.

I just got my Gear Live yesterday, and it doesn't seem to have the October update. I'm still on 5.0.1. I tried updating it, but it says it's up to date.

Today is the first day I used it all day, but I pulled it off the dock at around 9:30 AM and I started charging it again when it was at 8% at around 9:30 PM. I've read where some people are getting 2 days of battery life out of it, so that really interests me. (That's about what I get out of my Gear Fit.)

Any tips on saving battery life and/or getting the latest update on my phone? Any help would be appreciated.

I am having the same problem with my Gear Live as well. It is running 5.0.1 and I know there is later versions out there. I believe this is messing with my using G Keep on the phone. Did you ever figure out how to update it?
