New to S3, after first year on S0.

Don’t know if it got better on S1/S2, but Wrist Detection is amazing on S3.

With S0, anything but right on the wrist would lock my S0.

With S3, I’m wearing really loose (can lift about half inch), and wrist still detected always.

I haven’t seen this mentioned here, so wondering if it’s because I took a long hiatus from the AW world.

I’ve noticed it as well. Wrist detection on my S3 is much better than my previous S0.

On occasion the S0 would lock and while working out it would happen very frequently and got quite annoying. Now since I’ve had the S0, it hasn’t locked once on me including while working out.

Battery life on the S3 is also phenomenal compared to the S0. I’m loving it!
