Series 3 battery drain and wrong indicator

Battery life on watchOS 5 beta has been reduced to merely a half of watchOS 4. Also, the battery indicator is gets sometimes stuck at 50-52%, then jumps back to 100% as I plug the charger.

Anyone else noticed this?

I have a Series 2 and my battery indicator, if accurate, shows that I drain about 48% faster than Watch OS 4. I have my watch enter low power mode every day by 7 PM - not once has that ever happened in the two years I've owned it.

Hi AndSac and Stempnakowski,


Thanks for your reports - can you help us out by filing a bug report here. (Sorry if I'm starting to sound like a broken record in these forums)


Please install the sysdiagnose and Battery Life profiles from this page.


After installing the profiles, please try to reproduce the high battery drain - if you see the issue, please trigger a sysdiagnose on your Watch and include it in your bug report. Instuctions for this can be found on the profiles page.


Please reply back with your bug # and we'll take a look.


Thanks!

Why when I click your link to submit bug report it goes to an unavailable page? Would you please provide the proper link? Thanks.

I had the sam e battery problem on my Series 3. I unpaired and paired up again and the build changed to the new 16R5283r, this seems to have done the trick.
