Check tp see if your GPS/location is running. If so, depending upon the size of the watch (and battery) you can drain your watch in about 8 hours.  If you don't need it, turn it off. I found that ether the 4th or 5th (or both) beta updates switched my GPS on. I keep it off.

I have been getting 2 days, 20 hours out of my GW4 classic under beta 4 and beta 5. I hoping we get a similar if not better response out of the stable release update.  Your mileage may vary.

I thought that I was the only one that was experiencing faster battery drain after the latest update.

 

And this is from a watch that has wi-fi turned off all of the time (which I know is already a battery drainer).

 

I hope we get an update sometime this month to address this.

Even with all the things I did to mitigate batter drain - wi-fi off and GPS off, it took 2 full battery cycles for the watch to learn my usage habits. After that, much, much better!
