I just got the new AW Ultra and the battery lasted me about a day and a half. Then Without meaning to I turned off the Always On and it’s been 12 hours since last full charge and it just hit 90%…. That’s such a relief.

I just turned it on when I go outside. When I'm in the office, it's not necessary

I have it on during workouts and if I wear short sleeves. But in winter with hoodies and heavy jackets I have it off most of the time sicne I can’t just glance at it like I can during summer.

Y’all with the Ultra/Ultra 2 are lucky. I picked up an S5 when the S6 was new specifically to use with AoD. Fast forward to current year and, with both the degraded (80%) health and watchOS 10 being a battery hog, AoD makes the difference between being able to track my workout after work or my watch not even making it to the end of the workday.

That said, it definitely looks nicer when the watch on your wrist isn’t just a black screen. I can live (well, have to live) without AoD since I can just flick my wrist upward, but it feels more respectable when you and people around you can see a watch face on the black rectangle on your wrist, or that’s how I feel at least…

It would drive me nuts to have a blank screen even for a second
