watch face questions and battery life - Asus ZenWatch 2

Are there tutorials on how to create a watchface?
Are some watchfaces more CPU/Memory demanding than others?
Do different watchfaces affect the battery life differently?
If I have more watchfaces on my watch, does this affect battery? (Less watchfaces gives battery life?)

[Q] Battery life statistical analysis tool ?

Starting to mess with my new SGS2, flashing and stuff.
So i figured at some point i'll have to settle on something usable in real life and that includes a fair battery life.
For that one may need an application to gather battery drain statistics over prolonged period of time. In graphed form, with apps draining, charging, trend analysis, reboots/loss of power, etc.
Is there such a thing ?
At the moment i got the DarkyROM2 and it has the short term battery graph. But i want something to span as long as statistics are being gathered (weeks ? months ?)
Ultimate case analysis app of power consumption ???
In my opinion, Battery Monitor Widget Pro is the best battery monitor + including graph with voltage usage, percentage, etc ... it also include battery calibration tool too..
but it dont manage apps that running. in that case, install "watchdog" to manage whats apps running,ram usage,etc ..
both apps is a must in your case.
watchdog by zomut llc ? too much watchdogs on market
Better Battery Stats is what you need, only.

Accurate Battery life testing

What automated solutions are there to test my phone's battery life?
How does AnTuTu Tester for battery life work? Do I have to manually close every program and set various settings like WiFi and GPS or does the program do it?
I want to compare the battery life of two batteries accurately.
Thanks.

How does android / smartphone OS determine "battery health"?

So take apps like Ampere for example, they show some battery-related stats, one of which is battery health. I've yet to see any other value than "Healthy". So wondering how does the app / system determine the battery to be in good shape or not? Does it calculate the current maximum charge the battery can hold and compare to maximum, something like 2970mAh / 3000mAh can be considered healthy? Does it use the voltage value? Does it just use the temperature?
To provide context, my Note 5 is feeling like the battery has gone bad, I'm getting very limited screen on time even with light usage. Ampere and similar apps still show my battery as "Healthy", so I don't know if it's just a bogus stat or something scientific and can be trusted (which means my problem lies in something software-related).
Thanks for any input!

Can LTE be deactivated on Amazfit Nexo? Does it improve battery life?

Can LTE be deactivated on Amazfit Nexo? Does it improve battery life? Does battery life become as long as Verge?
Can we talk without LTE over Bluetooth connection as Verge does?
this entire watch should be deactivated and demolished.

Amazfit GTS 2 battery life

Hello,
new product came out, and that is Amazfit GTS 2. Anyone already have the watch? Can 1 week battery life still be achieved if all features are turned on?
Thank you for the answers, I really appreciate it.

This guy is a long term supporter of GTS and GTS2. He praised a lot for the old GTS and its amazing battery
But in his review of GTS2, after using for 10 ten days, he said the battery is really PATHETIC, only last like 2 days.

I saw this video but this is the only one that is saying the battery life is 2 days...so I'm looking for more users that can verify this before I buy it...
Thank you anyway
I found two more review on battery test for you.

In terms of battery life, according to the official statement, Huami Amazfit GTS 2 has a battery life of up to 7 days in daily use mode. I turned on the active heart rate detection + sleep assisted detection mode, turned on the sleep breathing quality test, and used the watch according to my own habits. The power consumption was 29% for 28 hours and 12 minutes, and the battery life was about four days. If you follow the official daily use mode instructions, the battery life will be further extended, and 7 days does not seem to be a problem.

What's honestly most impressive of all is that the developer's battery estimates for these smartwatches don't appear to be overblown, a rare thing for smartwatches or tech in general. After a week of use, including using the always-on feature sporadically, tracking my sleep cycles, and going for several workouts with GPS activated, the battery only recently dropped below 50%. Keep in mind that it would drain faster if I had continuous heart rate / SPO2 tracking enabled, but for most users, the GTR 2 could easily last you up to two weeks per charge. For comparison, the GTS 2 has a 7-day battery estimate.
Hope it helps, bro.
Personally, i'm using GTS and see no reason for the upgrade to GTS2. If you haven't bought GTS before, then maybe it's worth it.

Ya ta solucionado.
I have the gts2. I've had it about a week. Battery with usual use is about 4 days. I have wrist flip detection on high and get about 3 days. Overall I really like the watch. Waiting for Alexa update to come in the future.
I have the GTS 2 since the day it launched in India. Love everything about the watch except battery life.
Battery drain is too much. Hardly getting 2 days. I find it absurd to first purchase smartwatch for its features and then keeping most of them off to get battery life.
It is possible to turn WiFi off and bluetooth on?
Hello, I have it and only two days of battery life. I have a week with him and the clock is not bad at all. Taking advantage of the thread, you know how I can activate the extra functions of the watch.
I bought a few days ago GTR 2, and all is almost perfect except for the battery... firstly from 48% to 10% within 24h, . After fully charged, 3 days and 50% has gonewith one, 1h training per day without GPS.
I like multitasking, wifi (fast watch faces synchro), but AOD drains battery a lot I decided to disable AOD, sleep tracking, switched heart rate to 10min. interval and after 24h battery decreased from 56% to 44%, while I know that people with GTR 1 have 1% per day with almost the same settings...
so I'm really disappointed with such battery life...
Do you have any advices?
@Redmundek, my girlfriend has the same problem. I bought GTS2 for her and GTR2 for me and with the same settings I get ±10 days of battery life and she gets ±3! Did you find any solution?
Have you checked the settings for detection method? Try different option and see:
- automatic heart detection - for me it is Ok
- Sleep assistant - may be the root of possible more draining
- Automatic heart detection & sleep assistant - potentialy draining battery a lot (as far as I remember)
Then other options below: activity detection, heart rate alert, all-day stress monitoring, sleep breathing quality.. I have ticked most of them after different tests. No issue with battery draining (I guess)
I'm using a GTR2 but I remember having seen a big change in the battery draining here when I tested different settings.
Good luck.
Hi, I amended sleep monitoring and stress detection and the battery is quite good, even with AOD from 7:00 till 22:00 (which I prefer) it can works c.a. 5-6 days
