Mine has the exact same charging issues.

I recently noticed that despite leaving my Watch on the charger overnight, it sometimes maxes out at 92-94 percent charged and feels warm to the touch. A hard reset (which I've done a few times) usually fixes the issue for a week or so, but it's a little disconcerting nonetheless. Does this...

I put my Series 3 through its first test today and ran the Bronx 10 Mile Run this morning. (It was quite hot!) I was curious how the battery would hold up with LTE, GPS, and heart rate on, so I put my phone on airplane mode (listened to downloaded music on it) and relied on my Watch for pretty...

If I install the GM, should I do the encrypted backup to iTunes that many sites recommend with betas? Or is the GM stable enough to do the standard iCloud backup?

It's a not-so-bad feature, but the fact that it's only available on the X is pretty...no, very...lame.

So this is a new one for me. I usually have the battery percentage indicator on, but I noticed today that there was no percentage. In addition, the sounds for my mail notifications went back to the standard (factory) sound, and I was logged out of Facebook and had to log back in (not hacked...

I did another half marathon with my AW Series 0 (lol) and my phone and, once again, was off by .33 of a mile (13.44 for a 13.1 race). For those with AW Series 2, are you still seeing accurate measurements? Convince me to upgrade, lol.

RIGHT!!!! :laughing:

Yeah, I compared it to the race time, which had me at a slower pace (9:51/mi) in contrast to the watch pace (9:38/mi). I was using Runtastic Pro, which - since the last update - has been buggy, not staying on the watch screen even though it's running in the background. It could very well be the...

I ran the Bronx 10 miler today (with my phone in tow), and my pace and distance were off by 13 seconds/mile and .3 miles, respectively. That's enough to convince me to give Series 2 a shot and try running with the watch GPS and my phone in airplane mode.

For sure, a few seconds can make or break overall pace and distance measurements. I'm running the Bronx 10 miler tomorrow with my version 1 AW and phone and am interested to see how many runners are using Series 2 watches. There are a few Series 2 available in NYC, so if my measurements are off...

That's a little concerning, especially for long runs. Thanks for the info!

I just wish Facebook would fix the watch messenger app. It doesn't load the messages unless I go into the phone app and change the canned replies. So annoying.

I was a late early adopter and was all set to sell mine for a decent price via Craigslist, but the 3-5 week period to get a Series 2 Watch along with still unanswered questions about the GPS (is it significantly more reliable than using the phone's GPS?) led me to cancel the sale. Part of me is...

That's a good point about saving battery. I'm *thisclose* to selling my AW 1 to upgrade to Series 2, but since I run with my phone, I wonder if it's even worth the upgrade.
