Obviously anecdotal but I've never really had battery issues with any of

my iPhones, iPads, or Apple Watches. And really just about any flagship smartphone or watch is going to have a solid battery life. It's like the cameras on cell phones. Just about any major brand is going to have a good camera.

Any Loungers have an Apple Watch? -- GretnaHokie 05/16/2019 1:11PM

I have one, it's kinda "Meh" ** -- Galenahokie 05/17/2019 08:58AM

My wife loves hers, butt I’m still not ready to get one. -- two91hokies 05/16/2019 5:46PM

Shades of Dick Tracy and the 2 way wrist radio. Old enough to remember? ** -- AZHokie59 05/16/2019 4:42PM

I'm roll with the FitBit. Love it for counting calories burned, etc. -- BG Hokie 05/16/2019 2:54PM

Those last like 1-1.5 years right? ** -- Hokie Bird 94 05/16/2019 3:44PM

Who knows, got it in February. Why do you think that? ** -- BG Hokie 05/16/2019 4:01PM

One of the common things I hear from Fitbit owners: "be ready to replace in -- Hokie Bird 94 05/16/2019 4:03PM

They are nice and useful, but the battery life stinks -- WestyHokie 05/16/2019 2:51PM

The weakness of every Apple product. You would think they would figure it -- UTPr0sim 05/16/2019 4:49PM

Hmmm. My old SE phone does just fine. -- Hokie Bird 94 05/16/2019 5:19PM

They have. The only way they make money is selling the next years model. ** -- 133743Hokie 05/16/2019 5:03PM

Apple products have worse battery life than their competition. You might -- UTPr0sim 05/16/2019 4:56PM

I think my XR is good for 5+ days on a full charge -- EDGEMAN 05/17/2019 08:27AM

Again, not in my experience. ** -- AbsolutVT03 05/16/2019 4:56PM

I usually get about 40+ hours on it before I need to charge on the series 4 -- No Clue 05/16/2019 3:32PM

I can attest, the Fitbit Versa has great battery life. Want to be FitBit -- BG Hokie 05/16/2019 3:00PM

As soon as I figure out how that works ** -- WestyHokie 05/16/2019 3:23PM

I see people say this and it's never been true in my experience. I wear my -- AbsolutVT03 05/16/2019 2:58PM

Prefer 24/7 for fitness tracking; don't want to randomly take off to charge ** -- WestyHokie 05/16/2019 3:23PM

You should probably get a garmin ** -- Hokie Bird 94 05/16/2019 4:44PM

Agree, I just take my Versa off occassionally when sitting at work. ** -- BG Hokie 05/16/2019 4:30PM

That's a different argument though. And even a Fitbit isn't -- AbsolutVT03 05/16/2019 4:09PM

I think you get about 1.5-1.75 days out of a full charge. -- EDGEMAN 05/16/2019 2:57PM

I wear it at night for sleep tracking, by about 1 p.m. next day it's dead -- WestyHokie 05/16/2019 3:22PM

Love mine, and I went 20 years without wearing one. ** -- agray123 05/16/2019 2:48PM

Have had a Series 0, Series 2, and now Series 4. Love it. ** -- AbsolutVT03 05/16/2019 2:45PM

I liked my series 3 enough to trade it in for a series 4 when it came out -- No Clue 05/16/2019 2:35PM

Go for it! I have a Series 3, and it's my second Apple watch -- EDGEMAN 05/16/2019 2:27PM

Oh, and get the larger model. ** -- EDGEMAN 05/16/2019 5:13PM

I would like to be less attached to my technology.... not more ** -- turkeywinghokie 05/16/2019 2:12PM

Have one -- halesvb11 05/16/2019 1:49PM

Have worn one for about 3 years.... -- vthokieq 05/16/2019 1:43PM

Same here. All of my other watches are collecting dust. ** -- EDGEMAN 05/16/2019 2:28PM

I got one at Xmas. I like it. ** -- Nelsonia Hokie 05/16/2019 1:42PM
