What is the best way to deal with an Apple Watch with a poor battery

I have worn the Apple Watch Series7 in my hand for more than 3 years, and the battery SOC is still 72% left. It is probably full before going to bed and sleep mode at night + the screen is pure on during the day until it just runs out of power before taking a shower the next day. If you want outdoor sports, you have to turn on theater mode (turn off the screen on to save power to the sensor)
After all, it's unhappy, so what should be the best way to deal with this kind of aw with insufficient batteries? I struggle with two schemes:
1. Apple replacement: You can replace the battery with a new one by paying for a battery replacement fee, which is about 700 points?
2. Looking for an acceptable orange S8/S9? 45mm can be done for about 1000
Supplementary note: S7 is enough on the functional level, and it does not pursue new functions

I replaced it once in 2019 and it is currently in normal use; The price at that time was 34 yuan; I just went up to see that it had dropped to 25 yuan; It is estimated that PDD will be cheaper.

Poster Apr 13, 2025@ Anonymous344 I think it should be a good solution to find a repair shop to replace the battery, it depends on which shop is reliable

Anonymous1553 Apr 13, 2025It took me 2 years to drop from 74% to 72%, and I still use it. I plan to use it until I scrap it. It should be more economical to turn off the screen constantly on, and then reset the system to turn off useless functions that consume power, such as microphone monitoring and background automatic refresh, etc. As long as it can be used for a day and night, it needs to be charged, and I don't feel that 72% of the battery has much impact on usage.

Anonymous3111 Apr 13, 2025Mine has also been wearing the S7 for more than three years. Under normal circumstances and no exercise, it can last for a day and a half with sleep mode turned on and always on mode turned off; If you exercise for two hours every day, you can last for a day; If you exercise five hours a day and turn on the exercise mode, it can only just support these five hours; In the future, I will consider buying a Gaochi/Garmin sports watch, which will last longer.

Anonymous440 Apr 13, 2025It seems that there is a saying that you go to the official store to change the battery and upgrade the new model for free if there is no stock? I wonder if my stainless steel s6 can be replaced with a new model https://i.imgur.com/Ue1kikn. png

Anonymous3114 Apr 13, 2025It's the same situation, the S7 battery is not working. In view of the need for swimming, it is very, very not recommended for a third party to change it (even if you want to change it, you have to tell him that the water inlet pack is not guaranteed). Be careful when you find an orange piece. The water on the watch is quite deep.
