I am getting more into sleep health and want to better understand my sleep habits so I have been looking at the Apple Watch.

If I spend the money on an Apple Watch I want to also be able to use it all day but I am realistic in that I know it has to be charged too.

I am leaning towards the series 9 but see that it is good for about 18 hours and then needs about 1.5 to get a full charge.

What are your routines to use your watch all day but also be able to get good sleep data?

TIA

With my Series 8, I would charge up fully before bed, then put it on the charger while getting ready in the morning, where it would usually hit about 95% charge.

Wear it all day at work (8:30 - 4:30), and getting home in the evening, it would usually be at anywhere from 65-75%.

Just bought the Ultra 2, and don’t have to worry about that anymore. I’ve been able to wear it pretty much a day and a half without charging it at all, and it’s still at around 35-40%. Very happy I decided to get the Ultra.

I use it for tracking sleep, going to the gym, and even approving 2FA requests at work. It’s been a lot more versatile than I thought when I initially bought it.
