Apple Watch 4 should offer approximately 18 hours of autonomy for use, every day, and this means that it will have to be charged at night, just like the previous models. Apple Watch 4 has implemented a new S4 chip, which seems to handle better the management of the energy available in the watches' batteries, and this is where autonomy comes from.

  • Apple Watch Series 3 (42mm): 1.34 watt-hours
  • Apple Watch Series 4 (44mm): 1.12 watt-hours
  • Apple Watch Series 3 (38mm): 1.07 watt-hours
  • Apple Watch Series 4 (40mm): 0.86 watt-hours

Maintaining battery autonomy for Apple Watch 4 was also possible because the new smartwatch has an integrated screen that consumes less energy, so users can enjoy what they had before. Unfortunately, the Apple company did not manage to increase the battery life of the Apple Watch series, but at least the users benefit from the same experience.
