Hi are you sure the heart rate monitor that tends to dropout is due to the apple watch and not your heart? I’m asking because my heart rate also drops from 123bpm to 60bpm while running but I also got this same heart rate dropout with my other 3rd party heart rate device.
Got a tip for us?

40mm vs 44mm Apple Watch S4 - Which will you get?

i am honestly thinking lots of people going to regret getting the 44mm on the longer run due the size of the watch.
If anything, I consider the 44mm very small to be the biggest available option. There are loads of bigger watches and many of those are even being worn by women with small wrists.

People who say they have skinny wrists, do you know the size of your wrists? My wrists are about 145-150mm and I have a 42mm S0 now and I'm torn.
I was all set to go with 44mm since I love all the extra screen real estate. Then I looked at the App where it shows the true size and I think the 44mm looks too big for my wrist. I'm leaning towards 40mm now.
In the pic it looks pretty big on your wrist. Do you know your wrist size?

My husband convinced me to get the 44 but I am not 100% happy. I usually don’t like big watches or big chunky jewelry and I still feel it looks ridiculous on me although the screen size it’s a plus for me (I don’t see very well).
Damn! I ordered the 40mm silver aluminum which arrive by UPS at 11:45am. Just went to the Best Buy next to my office at lunch and they have the new series 4. Tried on the 40 and 44 and the 44mm was a MUCH better fit. Also, really like the space grey over the silver now. Looks like I will need to return the 40mm and wait in line for the 44 space grey now...
I've just been to try them on. The new ss gold is STUNNING!!! Not keen on the 40mm as it's too small for my liking and i'm used to wearing the 42mm. With that said, i think the 44mm will take a bit of getting used to but i think i can pull it off.
GIRL...that looks awesome on you! Don’t exchange it!!! You’ll regret it later if you do. I had the series 3 42mm and when I first put it on, my stomach dropped and I thought I made a big mistake. I didn’t exchange it, and after a week I got use to it and LOVED it. It really looks good on you...enjoy
My wife just saw my new Apple watch, even though I told her I should get her one with my order and said no, now she wants one, she loves the 44mm and wants it in gold, so ordered one for her few mins ago, it'll arrive late October, around the time she gets her Xr too.
What band did you originally get with the watch? and how much did you pay for the Amazon one? is it as strong as apple version the Milanese Loop Stainless steel?
