Green (1st Gen) sport band.
 
I decided to use the S0 now I have some time off and honestly, what a great device!

In terms of the features I actually use, the screen brightness is probably the only thing I am noticing as different between the devices. Speed is a given, but I would consider that part of the parcel of technology moving on.

If I do buy an S8 or an S7 (S4 Battery starting to show age), I will be quite comfortable with this as my second watch and to start using it again!
 
I'm really in love with the leather link bands I recently purchased! Luckily for me, I found a retailer who had Saddle Brown and California Poppy brand new. But now I'm constantly unsure which one to wear for the day…

Graphite S6 btw…next time I'll take a silver SS version for a more jewellery look

So I finally caved and decided to try out a Series 7 through Amazon. Battery life seems amazing so far, I did a clean startup with no backup in hope it helps.

Quick question to the owners - those of you with high battery health still, what charging habits are you maintaining? I want to avoid charging it nightly as that seemed to really hurt the health of my Series 4.

When I was still running three with cellular-activated, I would leave them off until just before I wanted to use them and then charge that one up.

I have mostly given up worrying about my sleep s4 Hermes though, I do leave it powered off off right after I wake up to rest it and then again after I nap with it in the afternoon.

Nice one, I don't care at all about sleep tracking so leaving it off overnight would be fine.
I got it going around 18:00 yesterday and got a workout in that evening.
Powered on today at around 06:30, it's 10:49 for me local time now and we've got 64%.

I think it will make it to the evening, I wonder if it is better to fast charge it quickly or slow charge it all night.. (Optimised charging on).
