Am I the only one here who experiences serious battery drain after updating to 7.3.3? It barely lasts a day now without serious usage. It used to last two days with similar usage. I Googled and realized there are other people who experience the same. Anybody here as well?
I’m having the cellular version. |

There will not be much difference also. I guess she is like me, will always look for newer option.  Anyway, I will let her know. |

I just realised 7.5 is yet to be rolled out.
I misunderstood. I was one of them who actually got the Shopee service to activate ECG, it was a tedious process but after activating also didn't find anything special. |

QUOTE(desreg2913 @ May 21 2021, 09:26 AM) if I know Shopee got I think will activate already.... any risk of providing Apple ID? Hmm, you need to create new Apple ID and later on change back to your existing one, so the seller won't know your real Apple ID.I been wait since S4 It is quite a complicated process la. Anyway, I have activated but didn't find it anything special. |

QUOTE(desreg2913 @ May 21 2021, 10:26 AM) oic. as long as the Apple ID has activated the ECG on your phone and watch then you can login back to your own Apple ID to access ECG, guess this is how it works. Maybe that's a good news for me. lol its good that you didn't notice anything special, means you are healthy. QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ May 21 2021, 02:58 PM) Do you all still wear normal watches after getting your smart watch? No more and I have more than 10 watches that I used to wear frequently before I got my S6...  Good thing also to stop me from buying watches. |

QUOTE(Barricade @ May 21 2021, 09:08 PM) Yes. Smart watch doesn’t look so smart when I’m wearing formal attending board meeting. Still prefer my Omega. Change the straps. Besides formal day I’m wearing smart watch all the time. I bought leather strap for office wear (semi-casual attire) but ended up no chance to use yet because I have been working from home since MCO 1.0. I find AW has plenty of accessories which can be used in all occasions. QUOTE(Lynixx @ May 22 2021, 02:43 PM) have you guys apply screen protector for your AW? I do. |

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ May 27 2021, 11:13 AM) I believe there was a poster that mentioned about battery draining. No such issue la. Been using ECG since January and only once drained due to new update but normalized in the next charge. All well and I have updated to the latest firmware as well. Maybe i will wait a little. That was just an isolated case. This post has been edited by fruitie: May 27 2021, 12:16 PM |

QUOTE(wewdoto @ Jun 8 2021, 02:29 PM) Hey guys, does anyone have any decent 3rd party leather watch band options? Nomad watch strap. Nomad is a famous brand for Apple leather stuff.I don't mind paying a decent premium as long as it's nowhere near the price of Apple's leather watch band offerings |
