I have been very unhappy with the battery life I’ve been getting from my Versa. Currently I’m 36 hours since charging it up to full and am down to 13%. A day and a half... that’s it. I inherited it from my wife when she decided she wanted a rose gold one.  She used to get around 4 days from the same unit, which seems reasonable to me.

 

The difference between us is that I wear mine inside my wrist and she wore it outside. As an experiment, I tried it outside and got around 85 hours of life (3 and 3/4 days). Inside = A day and a half, outside = almost 4 days. What’s up with that? Why would which side of my wrist make such a huge difference to the battery?

Hello @Killbasa, welcome to the Fitbit forums! Well, as far as I know, the battery is not affected by the wrist side where you wear your Versa. Here in this post, you'll find the tips that will make the battery of your Versa last longer. So give them a try and if the issue persists, let me know and I will continue assisting you. 

 

I'll be around!
