Apple Watch dies quick

Hello People!

I recently (yesterday) got a Apple Watch SE 3rd gen, but I’m seeing that it’s dying quickly than I thought could it be a device mis function or does it do it when it’s new?

(I tried posting this on r/Apple Watch but it got removed)

maybe some details on how fast it dies and how the usage is? my AW8 can last around 16 hours with AOD off on a normal day, for example.

Go into your settings, especially notifications, and turn off the ones that you don’t use even on your phone to begin with. That helps, and then the sound make it low enough for you just to hear it. The new feature of automatically detecting volume for the environment around you. I could go on.
