When it comes to workouts, the device does not seem to be giving customers its expected longevity. The company says that the watch should last up to 6.5 hours during non-stop workout conditions.

One user claimed to only get two hours of battery life while cycling. However, other users have praised Apple Watch, saying the device drops only a fraction in battery life during their entire workouts.

The heart rate sensor is one of the features that takes up the most battery on the device. The Apple Watch has a “Power Saving Mode” that allows it to last through longer workouts.

The gadget recently posed an issue to users with tattoos regarding the Apple Watch’s ability to pick up users’ heartbeats through its infrared sensors.

AAPL stock is down 2% Tuesday.
