Hello all. After the latest firmware update 1.3.5.77 my amazfit gtr 47 mm battery drain fast. I mean he just drop 3% on iddle with DND on. That's normal or just some update issue. What can I do? Thank you for help.
Same here - just lost 20% overnight with the watch not on my wrist (having been getting 20 days usage before the update).
I suspect the new "sporadic nap" monitoring is on all the time and draining the battery, instead of being its own option or tied to sleep monitoring.
<edit>Interestingly, a few hours later with it on my wrist and it hasn't moved. So maybe there's an issue with the sporadic nap monitoring when it's not on your wrist.</edit>
Same issue here, maybe they will repair in next firmware
yeah, have this same issue with the gtr lite latest firmware ...
They have added some notification screens that will keep the screen on with full brightness and color and if you dont close it momentarily it will kill your battery in hours
the screen I've been seeing a lot "connection failed, please update the amazfit app ..."
I have same issue. Battery lasted 5 days only with heart rate sensor off.
Anyone can help.
the problem persisit, no change

Hi,
I got an I9108 recently (from China Mobile). Found a very serious and strange battery drain issue. The phone works normal at day time. but at night, 8 hours stanby can eat 50-60% of my battery, for both of my batteries. Had a check by the service center, they siad the phone has no issue, and gave me two brand new batteries, problem still exist. I turned off almost everything: Wifi, GPS, background update, GSM data, etc. Battery usages shows Android OS is eating >80%.
One funny thing I noticed is: if I put the phone in a warm environment (say in quilt when sleeping), the battery drain seems to be normal: around 5% for 8 hours stanby.
I installed Battery Monitor Widget, and set current monitor to be every 5 minutes. I noticed that normal standby (day time, it is normally warm as I will put the phone in my pocket) current is around 5-10ma. When making a call, the current is around 25-40ma. But at mid night (realtively cold, may 10-15C), the current can easily be 50-60ma (not evry minute). So basically night time stanby is consuming more battery than a call.
Anyone see similar issue before? Any solution? Help is great appreciated.
Find/install BetterBatteryStats (thread on here or Market). Allow your phone to run overnight/for at least a couple of hours with it installed.
Read the first 10 pages/last 10 pages of the BBS thread on here so you have an idea of the info the guys on the thread will need from you in order to identify what's causing this drain & help you possibly improve this battery drain issue.
Ok, I've download BetterBatteryStats. will let it run for today and send updates tomorrow.
Looks to me the issue does not seem to be App related. Since it goes with working temperature, may it be possible that at night CPU just could not down the frequency to 300MHz but just keep working at 1200MHz?
anyway, will see how it goes for tonight.
Had it run for a night. Found partial wakelock: RIJL, ActivityManager and Alarm Manager are the tops 3, but all below 1.5%. AlarmManager seems to have a lot of count though (>2000)
For Kernal Wakelock, found samsung-battery is the one using 35%.
How should I fix it?
Ask in the BBS thread on here (search for it).
Got my issued solved by replacing the MB. Now stanby battery drain down to 5-8% for a night (8-10 hours).
Thanks for help anyway

It doesn't seem normal to me. Of course it depends on how many hundreds of notifications you have.
I've got GPS OFF, app notifications ON (WhatsApp, SMS, Calls), sleeptracking ON, no activities.
Charged the watch on sunday and now on thursday it's still at 100%. Maybe 10 notifications per day.
When I received my first watch, it was 0% straight out of the package. I charged it and it drained 5-6% overnight even with the watch OFF. Faulty battery. Returned the watch and got a new one. This one was 65% charged out of the package and is now holding up well.
Edit: Do you monitor heart rate? I don't.

Maybe I got it wrong. There's no such setting that I know of, but I never use activities that could use GPS on the watch. So GPS is off in that sense.
If you start an activity from the phone, it should use GPS on the phone and not the watch. Haven't tried it though.
It's dropped to 99% now. 1% sunday to thursday. Should I be worried?

Hi!
I got my new GTR 42 today. Big issue: battery goes down to 20% in three hours. I charged the phone twice already today (once when I unpacked it, once one hour ago), and it's the same issue.
I don't really see what I could do to make it better. Any idea?
Thanks a lot

try this

please see my post in another thread. Try it yourself and report if this makes any difference:
Hi, another user with GTR battery drain issues.
My newly bought GTR 42mm drained from 100 - 0 % in 4 days (no AOD, no HR, just Notifications & auto brightness). This was 1% per hour.
There, I read and tried few things, and this one seems to temporary patch the situation.
I unpaired and uninstalled all related apps (this is android user) and deleted the amazfit folder on the device. (read somewhere that there might me a corrupt settings file in there).
Then I installed some previous version of Amazfit app - current version on Play Store is version 3.4.4, and I found and installed version 3.2.0. Now my drainage fell from 25%/day to about 14%/day. I suspect that not the watch but the sh1tty app works in background doing god knows what and drains battery as hell. I did test with no connection to the phone (battery safe mode) and it was not draining single % for more than 8h.
This is not a cure, but probably will help someone until the chinese programmers do their job and release working sync software.

Hi, my stratos is having very bad battery life where some nights it will drop over 50 percent. Is anyone having this problem too? And does auto brightness for back light drains battery?
Hi my friends, this same happened to me. My watch during day and workout lose about 10-14% battery but at night it drops about 80%. At night I have switched on night and fly mode, only sleep tracking and heart rate was on... I am Goni g to send it back.
If you using 3rd party application it i eat your watch battery life.
I used notify & fitness .and my watch only last for two days.
After i remove it it last longer then 4 days
Sounds like it could be faulty, send it back and get a replacement if you can

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.
https://www.igeekphone.com/amazfit-gtr-2-in-depth-review-2/
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.
https://www.androidcentral.com/amazfit-gts-2-and-gtr-2-review
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.
No me llega las notificaciones del WhatsApp,
Alguien le llega?
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
I've been noticing that I've had severe battery drain issues over the last couple weeks (barely getting 13 hours of use and maybe 3-4 hours of screen time), and I think I've got the solution.
Looks like Tiktok has been draining my phone via push notifications (I get maybe 10-15 a day). Noticed this morning that I've had about 1.5 hours of screen time from Tiktok in the last 24 hours, but somehow had 10.5 hours (34%) of my battery drained.
I'm changing Tiktok's battery usage profile from Optimized to Restricted to help cut back on the drain from the push notifications, and I'll report back in a couple days with updates.
I noticed today I'd used 40% of my battery in the first 4 hours of being awake, but the phone has only drained an additional 8% in the last 2 hours since I changed that battery profile.
Any updates on this? Just changed the battery profile and notification settings for TikTok, hopefully I'll get more screen on time usage without changing to 60 Hz.

It helped some, but wasn't a true fix. Still on the hunt for improvements. I also have one of the phones that runs pretty hot, so I might be doing a factory reset and doing some more testing soon.
