I felt that a battery that lasts one day is better than one that lasts something like 6 days. It is easy enough to remember to charge at night. Yes, one can’t use sleep features, but I am ok with that.

When you are in apple ecosystem, unlock phone with watch, unlock Mac with watch, accept Okta verify (2FA) on watch without an unlock, etc are life changing things for me.

What sucks is that I can’t gift it an Android/PC person without replacing thousands worth of everything else.

I have a Garmin watch and I just charge it while I'm taking a shower. Easy to remember, and I've had it for a few years and it's never run out of battery.

That's what I do with my Apple Watch, too. I wear it 24x7 excepting my daily shower.

Yes but what if you take a shower every days ?
