The Galaxy Watch 8 gets a key battery health feature that more smartwatches need

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-07-22 07:42:49

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s new Galaxy Watch 8 series introduces a “battery protection” feature designed to extend the device’s battery longevity. The feature works by stopping the charge at 90% and only resuming it when the battery level drops down to 85%. This prevents the battery from sitting at a full 100% charge, which reduces stress and helps slow long-term battery degradation. Most people don’t upgrade their smartwatch every year, opting to keep their device unt

If there’s one thing we all want from our next smartphone, it’s more battery life. Thankfully, battery cells are bigger than ever, while processors are increasingly frugal. This means that many, but certainly not all, flagship and mid-range handsets can take us through a day without leaving us suffering from battery anxiety. However, some phones are definitely better than others at lasting through more demanding work/life balances or taking lighter users through a second day. Not to mention, th
