Apple has finally announced that its first wearable the Apple Watch will have 18 hours of battery life over a normal day.
According to the Verge, Apple said that all the tests were performed on the 38mm model of the wearable. Hence, owners of the 48mm model can expect a longer battery life.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said that 18 hours of battery life is the amount of time that "works for most people".

Apple has broken its testing into six categories, all-day battery life, talk time, audio playback, workout, watch, and power reserve.
