For those using it, what drop are you seeing overnight for sleep tracking? I'm seeing about 15% with bedtime mode, snore detection and blood oxygen active.
I start overnight wear at 100% and in the morning I'm down to 90%. I don't use bedtime mode (don't even know what that is), I have blood oxygen active but not snore detection as it was recording my CPAP machine.For those using it, what drop are you seeing overnight for sleep tracking?

Well, if you manually turn DnD on/off, them doing it from your watch allows you to do it without unlocking your phone and all that, but in reality, no advantage one way or the other.Thanks for that info! I use DND on my phone which syncs with my watch so it sounds like the same thing. Is there a difference or advantage one way or the another?
Typical 1 hour bike ride would drain about 15% with AW2, using Samsung Health and GPS on. Today I did same ride and it drained 25%. Will keep an eye on it to see if changes over time.

Ah, so thank you, that is important to know. Sometimes if I awaken at night I'll want to check the watch to see what time it is. I guess I'll leave my phone with my preset nightly dnd setup and let my watch sync to that.There is, bedtime mode also turns the screen off and disables raise, touch and rotate bezel to wake to prevent you doing stuff on your watch while asleep.

After first full charge I am at 32% after 25 hours. This includes playing around with the new Walkie Talkie app and lots of notifications.
Does auto brightness help or hurts battery power. I was getting decent battery, but turned on auto brightness and added a tile that syncs in the background and my battery life dropped significantly. I removed the tile and have now turned off auto brightness. Too soon to tell, but if anyone knows please advise.
Depends on where you keep your brightness set if using manual. It's possible to get better battery life from that, but it would drive me crazy being outside and unable to see my watch. Likewise, I wouldn't like having it kept really bright when I didn't need it.
It sounds like the tile that syncs info in the background probably has more to do with it than anything, or if you were keeping brightness set on permanently low that is also contributing.
