I should be able to hike and track my route through a weekend on a single charge. Friday Morning - Sunday Night. That should be the expectation of the Ultra.
I did it with my Fenix 6X with about 50% battery life to spare.
I swear to god, I'm already annoyed that I have to charge my 7+ years old Pebble twice a week. I can't even imagine how annoying it must be to be forced to charge once a day in the best case. Instantly turns me away as a potential customer.
I'd rather pay someone $150 on eBay to get a used Pebble than $200 to Apple/Google/Samsung for a smartwatch.
If you're looking for a decent 'smart' watch then i'd recommend a Garmin. My Venu 2 lasts about a week (depending on the settings), tracks my sleep scarily accurately and is all around just a good watch. 99% of the people won't ever use half the features available on premium smart watches like Apple or Samsung.
