Why can't Apple, of all manufacturers, produce a watch that can last longer on a charge than one or two days?

Garmins easily last a week.

Oh, really?

Looks like they last dramatically less than that if you buy an Garmin with comparable display and actually use the advertised features.

If Apple made a watch with a smaller display and fewer features but 10-30 days of battery, I’d buy it.

I always have lots of Apple devices, but won’t deal with multiple that need daily charging.
