ok, i did on my x3+ both updates and reset the watch without the sim in it and so far with all functions turned on the battery life is great hope it will continue that way i'll notify in several days, i mean with notifications and all btw with m2d there is no need for 3rd party app the watch turned on when notification comes in but still i use NiLS for head up. everything that i've had on the phone before reset is on the watch and i think that the updates especially the last one (12.41mb) did good with the watch but as i said i did reset the watch. i think if there is an update if it is'nt a major and important update and the watch works well there is no need for the updates.

SoniaSophie9697 Doing the same thing as you is giving me 8 hours max now… Still not enough to last the day. When looking at GSAM app, i can see that my watch is still sucking battery like crazy when in idle mode. Turning off IOS notification helped me achieve a bit better battery live but i can’t disable that app and when i reboot, it runs in the background again. Do you think that by rooting my X3+ i could get rid of those system apps that i don’t need (i’m using the watch in standalone only).
Any help or tip you might have would be appreciated here

I think I know the culprit…M2D…battery was fine in the first hour or so after resetting the watch …then I installed M2D and battery started drainning fast…monitored the battery and showed Android system draining about 13%…before resetting the watch it was Ios notifications that drained that much battery…really confused
Every user reported the same thing. M2D drain the device as it keeps the device awake always. I am writing a tips post. Check that out. Battery will be very nice according my tests. I go 1 days with proper use easily. Standby 3 days. And minimal use 2 days without phone linked.

In my case the battery drain is because of the Ios push notification …it is constantly running and after I kill the process then the Kernel drains about 14% of the battery…bought the asus zenwatch 2 and I think I will start using that one since battery life is not an issue, or at least a hit and miss scenario.
You are getting iOS notifications on the Finow X3+ watch? What app do you need on your iPhone to push notifications to the Finow X3+?
I’m getting crazy good battery life with this release…wifi permanently on, no power savings, none of those
“Battery Doctor/Powersave/Greenify/Tasker” kludges either.
After 9 hours I’m still at 82% which (for me) was previously unheard of.
(Haven’t tried with a sim card, and I’m keeping the gps off).

i got to say that this update is great with more than one connectivity is on and battery is great i always had great battery life but not with more than 2 connectivities but now i’ve tried all of them on and so far so good. this update seems to resolve battery issues.
Yo no consigo tener una duración de más de 8 horas con apenas uso del smartwatch, todo el consumo de batería lo hace con el reloj en reposo ¿Podrías decirme que actualización es?
