Which really (or not) the battery
Notifications and vibrations
Rafales alerts light the screen and trigger the vibration. Sort the superfluous apps: you save battery duration on a daily basis without losing anything important.
AMOLED screen and brightness

SPO2 and advanced metrics
The measurement of oxygenation during the night weighs moderately. Continuously, it costs more: limit it to sleep if you target balance.
GPS during sessions
GPS is the most energy -active position. Allow around 4 to 6 % battery per hour of racing with GPS. Three hour outings in the week thus consume 15 to 20 % of the total load.
Music and calls
Distribute music from the watch (Bluetooth headphones) or answer calls increases consumption during effort. Isolated, the impact is modest; Cumulated, it becomes visible.
