This is so brilliant, we can only get this level of details from the hardworking small youtubers, the big youtubers will never touch this because it doesn’t have mass appeal
Awesome review! One more tip which is even more radical. I run about 1hr per day and was able to get one week+ battery life with the SE by turning it off when not in use.
I have a series 1 Apple watch for 4 years. I don't want to buy series 5/6. SE but I am still watching your all smartwatch videos because of the video content and detailed explanation of each technical aspect. Good work, Sir. You are the BEST.
Thanks so much for making this video! I was able to make my new Series 6 last for 2.5 days (roughly 54 hours) before I charged it at 12%. I would not have thought to change some of the settings you mentioned without your video prompts and actually set up my phone while re-watching your video. Thanks again!!!
@@msetmset4857 Yes, but I made heart tracking still "on" I think but it only turns on when I ask it to or during a workout... I think. It still tracks certain times at least. I also changed the brightness to the lowest one, turned off all noises (but I do have hepatics for the vibration with my alarms), and tried to delete any apps I wouldn't use so that they wouldn't end up passively using battery in the background somehow.
Once again excellent review. Level of detail also amazing my only suggestion would be, if like the test results are written on the screen, perhaps it’d greatly help to process all the info if a table of results was shown afterwards. Looking forward to the full review.
Thanks for the feedback! I actually thought of that after publishing, a nice summary. I’ll actually do that and post it on my website, hopefully later today and I will update the pinned comment with the link. Thanks!!
Just wanted to let you know, I really appreciate the videos you put out there. You are detail-oriented and your videos are more informative than other videos out there. Please keep up the good work. Meanwhile, I'll try to build endurance like you. Man, you are fit as hell.
Thank you, you save me so much money... I was going replays my huawei watch which give me AOD, phone calls music GPS and at least 10 days of battery life for less money.
Great review, just great. This is how you do a battery test. In other reviews we get almost no detail, just some 10 minutes and 1 seconds of this b.s.: "Ummmm the watch lasts like I don't know like 18 hours with a typical use?" As if I had the watch and the reviewer was guessing my test result numbers. Keep up the good work man. Liked & subscribed.
I was looking for insights about apple watch battery life I got the full test made in a rigorous way with your content. Blueprint of how serious simple test should be done. Serious content from a serious youtuber. Thank you for your quality work.
This video truly helped. I watched a lot of videos with negative reviews about the series 6 but this certainly does make the series 6 “The Better” option
Dude I subbed the minute I saw the background. A good channel can be pretty accurately judged by the effort and put into the background. And you are some of the best.
OMG! 10 seconds in has changed my life forever! Who knew you can wear an Apple watch on the left wrist with the crown on the left too!!!!! I've been wearing my Apple watch 3 wrong for the last year, left wrist with crown on the right, got knocked and pushed so many times with certain gloves/activities, this is epic!! ha I'm easily pleased 😂😂😂🙌🏻🙌🏻 Just subbed too and love the reviews, eyeing up a potential Garmin purchase but no idea which model, my partner has the Forerunner 245 music and loves it. now need to watch all your other reviews, great work man!
The breakdown of all the diff options and how each of them affected the battery life is fantastic! Something I woulda tried on my own but thanks to you have helped inform me before my next Apple Watch purchase!’ Thank you!!
Thank you for your in depth review! I purchased a Series 6 (non LTE) about a month ago, and I have been able to get approximately 24-30 hours of battery life by disabling the always on display, as well as muting several notifications! Coming from a Fitbit Blaze, this is my first Apple Watch. While the Series 6’s battery life lags in comparison with Fitbit, the Series 6 excels over my Blaze as a fitness watch! Based on your review, I will see if I can squeeze out additional battery life. Thank you for your time in making this review.
Thank you for taking the time to do this. I had the SE and then got a 6 one week after (both GPS+cellular) and felt like the battery life on the 6 lasted a bit longer than the SE (always display off)
Thanks for the awesome in-depth content ! Can't wait for the series 6 review to drop, I'm making a purchase decision based on your opinion. Any rough idea when you'll upload it ?
I have been watching your videos and I didn’t know that am not subscribed to your channel! Love this video and your channel, got yourself a subscriber 👍👍
Pull my fully charged S6 on at 6am, did a 3.5 hour outdoor cycling workout, always on display enabled (brightness at medium), spo2 enabled, do not disturb while working out enabled. After the workout I did pretty much nothing except relax and watch a couple movies and catch a nap. 13.5 hours later I’m sitting at 18%. I was expecting better battery life than this.
Fantastic in depth review of both these watches 👍 I went with the se in the end and couldn’t be happier, I don’t really get the “always on” on the 6, if I’m not looking at the watch why does it matter! Great review 👏
I’ve turned off always on feature on my series 6 and it’s as good as doubled battery life, also I don’t have white or coloured screens. In real life situations it really does help with battery significantly in my experience
Battery life is 100% of the reason I still don’t have a “smart watch.” I will stick with my old casio pathfinder for backpacking trips, but boy would it be nice if they could make a cut-down gps watch with 1 week battery life. I’d buy it in a heartbeat
@@DesFit i gave one to my dad for father’s day and if I had to get one, it’d be the vivoactive 4. But his only lasts 3 days or so and he is just golfing with it. Maybe his settings drain it fast but for the weight I’d almost prefer something with LESS features and greater battery life, especially for longer trips in the woods
Which app should i use for running with the apple watch series 6? I mean the only app I used was strava, but i like the running app from apple to? Which one would you use?
Great comparison! Not looking to upgrade from the series 3 but sure is tempting looking at the new battery life/charging time since I tend to wear it all day (when I go to bed as well).
This is so brilliant, we can only get this level of details from the hardworking small youtubers, the big youtubers will never touch this because it doesn’t have mass appeal

I’m blown away by the amount work that went into this video! Thank you!
Sure thing! Thanks so much!
The full, in-depth reviews of the Apple Watch SE and Series 6 are coming up! Stay tuned, folks!
Edit: the full reviews are live! Check them out!
I really like how in depth your reviews, especially for Apple Watch as i am thinking of getting one!
@@archie2591 thank you! Coming up real soon!
More battery life for Apple watchs: power off😁😇
Awesome review! One more tip which is even more radical. I run about 1hr per day and was able to get one week+ battery life with the SE by turning it off when not in use.
nice video, taking notes! growing my channel to!

I like how you have a Garmin Fenix as a background time reference lol. Such a flex to Apple

Hi, I supposed you disabled the AOD, SP O2, and heart tracking?

Just bought a series 6 and a SE for someone else, I was wondering what was the difference in battery! thank you so much! this is genius!!!!!
Glad it helped! Thanks!
So to get 40+ hours out of the series 6 you need to virtually turn it into a series 1
😂😂😂😂😂
Your reviews are insanely deep and more accurate towards buying a Gadget! :)
Thanks so much!
Thank you for doing the charging rates. This really made my day
Sure thing!

This is by far, the best UA-cam video I've seen on this topic, congrats.
Glad to help! Thanks!
The amount of work is mind boggling man !!
It was! Thanks!
Thank you, you save me so much money... I was going replays my huawei watch which give me AOD, phone calls music GPS and at least 10 days of battery life for less money.
Thanx! It helped me to decide that going towards SE will be better value for money for me
👍
Thanks for the in-depth explanation, I think I can rely on your content for actual day-to-day experience with these devices. Keep up the good work.
Glad they are informative! Thanks so much.
As much as I’d love a longer lasting battery, I’m not turning off the always on display, the heart rate monitor, or the blood oxygen measuring thingy
Great review, just great. This is how you do a battery test.

What did you end up getting? I'm curious to hear
Great job to fully disclose the battery life of SE & 6~!
Thanks!
I wonder how long it took you to run all the tests. Very comprehensive review indeed 👏
A long time! I actually did many of the tests twice just to verify the results. Thanks!
Best Apple Watch movie on YT. Awesome work mate ! Cheers !
Thanks!
2 minutes into the video and I subscribed. Nicely done

My series 6 stays 48 hours without always on display
This guy replaced jimmy from jimsreview room keep it up!!!! Love your vids
Jimmy was great! But thanks for tuning in!
I am trying to buy the aplle watch SE.. I need it for various fitness activities and also for some show off (im not broke )
Thank you for taking the time to do this. I had the SE and then got a 6 one week after (both GPS+cellular) and felt like the battery life on the 6 lasted a bit longer than the SE (always display off)
unnecessary change. You paid like 120 dollars just to have like 3% left at the end of the day which is just pretty useless
Best I’ve been looking for a vid like this for a while
Awesome!
Thank you so much for doing all this testing. I have been looking for this kind of in depth battery testing!
Glad it helped! Thanks!
I got Serirs 6 yesterday 🙂 thnx for your tips will try out now, wish they give atleast 3 days battery backuo
Me too! Good luck with your watch 👍
@@DesFit thanks Mate 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Sure thing
When you said hit the like button at the beginning of the video, I did, for very good reasons. 👍
Thanks so much!!

I’m aiming for within a week. Thanks for your patience!
this guy went above and beyond , thank you. very detailed
Appreciate the kind words! Thanks!
Hey, this was great! It'd be even nicer if you included some graphs - easier to visualy understand the differences.
After publishing I definitely had thoughts about how to make this better - graphs would have helped! Thanks!
Brilliantly executed review Des thank you. (So much better than DC Rainmaker🤣🤣🤣)
We both have our own unique styles and takes on devices so I hope you watch both but thanks for tuning in!
@@DesFit I totally agree but I’d never miss an opportunity to take a jab at DC 😆
Nice job, Des. I like the shots of the Fenix 6 in the middle. I’m guessing that made it past 48 hours. Lol!
Ha! Ya, I didn’t have to worry about battery life with that one! Thanks!!
such extensive tests. the details are outstanding. good job
Thanks!!
And that's how You make a great review! Like always great stuff!
Thanks so much!
Oh, you just answered all my questions! Thanks a lot!
Glad to help. Thanks!
Great review mate. Thinking of getting one.
Nice! Thanks!

Sure thing! Thanks!
Congrats on this video, very detailed and well described.
Thanks!
That was awesome. As always thanks for the in depth review.

Daaamn man that what i was looking for. Especially the battery usage of GPS :). Many thanks for this comparison

How long do you make your battery last for the SE?
So incredibly helpful. You answered all of my questions and gave some great tips too. Thank you!
Sure thing. Thanks!
Would you say the extra 40 bucks for the bigger watch is worth It? Do the 40 and 44mm differ much in battery life
Any chance you tried 40mm size for the AW6? I’m wondering what the differences are in battery life
I’ve turned off always on feature on my series 6 and it’s as good as doubled battery life, also I don’t have white or coloured screens. In real life situations it really does help with battery significantly in my experience
Nice! Thanks for the additional info!
Solid breakdown, grateful!
Thanks!
Great video mate 👍👌
Thanks!
Great review ... Been waiting for Apple to improve battery life on this watch, before I get one but it’s still not good enough for all that money.
Ya, you're paying for basically everything else but the battery 🤷♂️😆 But that "everything else" is pretty darn good though. Thanks!
Great video with all that I wanted to know.
👍
I like this kind of review. Very scientific! Kudos @desfit!
Thanks a bunch!
the video i was looking for!!! thanks again and again for your work
