Lilian, 11 Aug 2020They finally release sleep tracking and it's the worst... moreExcept it literally states it uses accelerometers to detect movement and breathing during sleep... Which means it differentiates between deep sleep, light sleep and awake states (probably also includes restless state).

                  They finally release sleep tracking and it's the worst implementation... It's basic sleep tracking, no insight into the states of sleep.

                      TimmyKH, 11 Aug 2020Battery is barely survive a full day. how can it track duri... moreThat's a myth. Anyone with an Apple Watch knows battery life is 2 days+. I have an S3 LTE (38mm size) and I have had two days+ battery life since I had it. I also had a S0 42mm model and that lasts for 2 days. Here's my usage:

                      Day 1. Come home from work and charge about 5pm. It's usually done for 7pm. I use it and wear for bed
                      Day 2. I use it all day for work, cycle tracking (I cycle to work) and then I charge at 6pm.
                      Day 3. If I don't cycle track, I can charge on Day 3 about 5pm

                        The "custom" faces seem like BS. From what I gathered it's not actual custom watch faces, but only custom face "configurations". Basically you can still only use baked in watch faces, but the way they are configured will now be possible to share and thus also download. Unless someone knows otherwise... but that's what I understood from their presentation.

                          Battery is barely survive a full day. how can it track during the night 😣

                            Which Watch version can measure BP?

                              It's still the watch to beat. The Samsung Galaxy 3 seems like a decent runner up but we'll see what the accuracy of it's sensors and algorithms is.

                                I wish I grew up to be a secesful man wearing an apple watch at me wrist
