Doubt it as OLED has bad image retention. Probably more likely when MicroLED is introduced to be honest.
Got a tip for us?

This has been asked lots of times. An always on display is not a reality right now for Apple. They easily could have implemented if they wanted to, but clearly they are choosing not to do this or XYZ reaosns/image retention, battery constraints, ect, similar to how the iPhone X does not incorporate this either.
Fireproof!

My guesses...
No - to always on display. Not ready for that.
Yes - to haptic buttons. Many leaks seem to confirm.

I personally have not read or viewed a lot of ‘leaks’ for the haptic buttons, there was only one real rumor indicating that, but not a lot of actual leaks.

So it is thinner. Got to wait a couple of days to order though. I am glad they are keeping the non-cellular model.
So.... 38mm was small on me 42mm was about right. The new version is 40mm and 44mm. Is it safe to say I would be OK with the 40mm? 44mm sounds massive.

I don't think it will be massive, I think that's the screen size right? How much different is the entire watch? I am half paying attention to the announcement because I am at work.
If the body is 44mm, it is going to be big for my small wrist. I mostly wear 40mm watches, so I am hoping that the 40mm should work for me. I never had the Apple watch, but this one looks like a winner!
