I've seen this mentioned a few times in various places and the response seems to be mixed, so I wanted to create a dedicated thread just for comparing battery life between the first and second Band.
Are you seeing improved battery life, reduced, or is it about the same? Personally I'm seeing much poorer battery life on my Band 2, even without ever turning on GPS or other battery consuming features.
I was able to get close to two days with my Band 1 with watch mode on. On my Band 2, if I keep watch mode on I go from 100% in the morning to the 20% range by night. Switching watch mode to rotate buys me some more time, but still definitely not on the level of the Band 1. Heck, even sleep tracking uses about the double the power my Band 1 did.
What's your experience been like for those of you that have both Bands?
