To download watch os 3 beta or not.???

I have had no issues with OS 3 beta 1 or 2 but am having pain in the ass issues with B2 OS 10 and I can't go back to 9 because my watch is OS3. My fault I know but blah

I jumped on beta 1 and now have beta 2 and absolutely love this OS, I wouldn't look back! It really is a great OS, makes it feel like a whole new device.

I wouldn't if I were you until it's done. beta 2 is a steaming pile of crap.
Beta 1was stable as heck. But this one is just awful. I sent my original watch back to have reverted. But my second watch has it and it's awful.

Beta 2 works better than watchOS 2 and beta 1. Hardly a steaming pile you say it is. Wondering if you actually installed it or are you just lying. After turning off SOS calling both my watches work great. Very little lag or stuttering in fact and normal battery life.

Yes of course I must be lying if my experience is different from yours. I will admit it has become more stable over the last few days but the first few were treacherous.

I have done a lot of testing with Beta 1 and Beta 2 and although beta 2 added some improvements, in my experiences, beta 2 has definitely had more steps backward than forward. Battery hasn't been any worse unless you start adding third party apps to the dock and then it is possible to drain the battery more.

Just more oddities and watch faces disappearing on reboots and 25% battery drain per hour during workouts and workouts "working" but poor calorie and exercise counting.

Activity faces still lag on wrist raise and seem to drain a little more.

I've had OS3 installed since the release of public beta OS10 and it's been working fine, I haven't noticed any adverse effects and battery life is about the same as on OS 2. We're seeing so many varying reports, best way is to test for yourself, just know that it is a beta and can have some bugs, although i have to yet encounter any.

Does anyone know when the public beta of 3.0 will drop?

edit: just realised there will be no public beta 🙁
