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.

I am not sure if anyone has noticed that when you have your phn with u and its Bluetooth it last forever defeating the purpose of me getting a $500 watch

Samsung hasn't came up with a solution. Do not set your watch on automatic updates. Look at all the reviews first. I have not updated my new watch since I received a new one . And if I am bluetoothed it last about 4 days . But if you do not bluetooth it drains by the minute. SAMSUNG FIX THIS !!!!

I even factory reset and still drains an a little over an hour

Yes.... unfortunately thats not gonna fix it. There is no fix. I have been in the same situation since Sept. As long as u have bluetooth on and your connected to your phn it will stay charged.

If after a factory reset if you're watch is draining within 24hrs down to hardly anything, then you need to get it repaired. Even with everything on that would drain a battery, like the always on display, 24hr heartrate sensor, GPS, you should still getting just over 2 days.

I thought the same and got a new one and the same thing happened. Unless I am connected to my phn I lose all charge extremely fast. If I am bluetoothed to my phn it stays charged for 4 days or so

I had it replace. This is a new watch and as I have been saying If I do not have it Bluetoothed to my phn I lost charge rapidly. I have noticed when these watches are on standalone you lose charge fast. I bought it to leave my phone behind 😒
