Coming from to AW5 to ??

[nyy13251]

I got the 5 series back in October 2019. It still works fine, but the battery stinks and it just isn’t as bad as it was. Ready for an upgrade. But I cannot decide which way to go.

The 10 looks nice and I like that it’s thinner, will obviously be better battery than the 5, and slightly different design.

The ultra 2 is older, so not sure if it’s worth it being a year old. But it’s bigger than the 10 and thicker. But it does look nice with the bands that are specific for the ultra. I do workout, but nothing crazy. I do wear my current 5 everyday.

Can’t decide. Was really hoping to be blown away by the options, but unfortunately, I was not.

I'm coming from a 5 and I'm going to a 10. The Ultra is a tank and frankly I like the design of the regular watches better.

same: 5 edition ti 44mm -> 10 slate ti 46mm. Battery on the 5 doesn't even last a full day anymore.

From an aluminum space grey S5 to aluminum black S10. Although I’m not 100% sure I’ll keep it, I may return it for the silver. I’d like the titanium but I can’t justify the cost difference.

Yup. I wake up at 6 and by 5pm, it’s usually on its last leg assuming I worked out or used it during the day.

Went from an AW S5 to S9 about 60 days ago. S5 battery was coming to 80% battery health.
The new S9 is much better (bought on sale). Battery life is 36 hours between recharge - including 90 minute workouts.
Will be curious to see when the sleep apnea feature is available. Along with the vitals as per Watch OS11.

I think im leaning towards the 10. Ultra is double the weight of the 5 and I think I prefer thinner and lighter. I wonder if Apple makes a deal for o2 sensory if that can be enabled over software or if they would wait till the 11 watch.

Here you go... Series 5 44m Ti on the left, Series 10 46mm Slate Ti on the right. Feels noticeably thinner on the wrist.
