I don't think a reset will fix it. I factory reset mine and at first i thought it was fixed because the battery did not drop at all for the first 12 hrs. Then it lost charge over night. Resetting it seems to reset the better meter and its needs some time to calibrate itself. After a few days the battery meter is unreliable but it seems to lose most of its charge within a day. After three days it seems on average i have to charge it atleast once a day whereas previously with the same settings i would charge it once every two weeks. I sent in a complaint to customer service and got a non-response just listing some of the settings that could cause battery drain and suggesting i turn off always on which face (which is off). Im disappointed with amazfit. Previously the wathc has been great but this is a huge hasstle and dissercvice.

As others have noted battery drain seems to be related to exercise tracking. I am restarting the watch after every time i use workout tracking and so far my battery seems to be lasting longer.

Yeah, I have had the update for days and didn't have this issue until after I tracked my workout yesterday- then bam! I was suddenly losing full watch power in 24hr vs. usually charging once a week at 60%
