After updating my Galaxy Watch 46mm two days ago my battery is draining rapidly. Less than 8 hours to go flat.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Before the update I was on a great 4 to 5 days before needing a charge.
Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated.

Mine went back today, which is a real shame because functionality (beyond battery life) and aesthetics was exactly what I wanted. What is the best way to keep track of updates? I'd consider buying again if the battery issue is resolved.

Had my watch a week and was initially disappointed with the battery having come from Fitbit Versa which had great battery life.
However, I've found turning off Wi-Fi and location when not needed has made a huge difference. Makes no difference to watch functionality and reckon I'll now get over 2 days on a charge.
Other than this the watch is everything I had hoped!

1 week ago my galaxy watch 46mm battery started to drain and it won't last for 8 hours. Today my watch has stopped charging.
What should I do ?

I had the exact same problem... battery life went down by ~1/2 after the watch software updated.
Fix:
- Backup your watch settings first, via the Galaxy Wear app on your phone
- On the watch, go to settings and complete a Reset
- Restore your watch settings using the Galaxy Wear app
Worked like a charm for me.

I have had a serious problem with the battery the last couple weeks after an update. I am lucky to get 8 hours on it and then it dies. It was fine before the update.
