I just read a review that said a popular fitness tracker only gets 3 days of battery

I was looking at a new fitness tracker online yesterday, and a detailed review on a tech blog caught my eye. The reviewer said the model I was interested in only lasts about 3 days on a single charge, even though the company's website says 'up to 7 days'. That's a huge difference, and it made me rethink the whole purchase. I guess I should always check independent reviews for real-world battery life. Has anyone else bought a gadget where the advertised battery life was way off from what you actually got?

Honestly tho, is 3 days even that bad? Most of us plug stuff in every night anyway.

My old phone's battery life was a total joke compared to the box.

Total joke" seems a bit harsh for a battery. It's just a phone, not like it's keeping your heart beating. Most of us are near an outlet all day anyway.
