Probably ;-) Though they might load a bit faster .
 
So far I still find Siri inconsistent. Touched the screen to turn it on (no wrist flick) and said "Hey Siri" three times with a pause in-between each time but got no response. Another time it worked. 3rd party apps do seem a little faster.

Can't get it to download. I'm from the UK. Anyone else having issues?

Nope all, good here. Took about 20 mins to download and until the end of time to install.

Maybe it's just because I'm paying attention because somethings new, I do know that it's become less noticeable the longer I've had the watch (don't think anything can top the first Tap, scares the crap out of you), but right now I've got emails coming through and it feels like a proper tap again.
 
Not sure if it's been mentioned in this thread yet but the screen is much more eager to come on when you raise your wrist. You also don't have to perform such a pronounced movement. Guess apple realised that it's ok for the screen to come on with smaller movements. It also does it with less of a delay.

What are you expecting the watch to do, exactly? Read the release notes.

Actually why not? That could be added to Siri and a command to have Siri read you the software version number and release notes when asked.

Is it useful- not at all, pure luxury, but it would be interesting.

I'll invite you to see my follow up post here: Maybe it's just because I'm paying attention because somethings new, I do know that it's become less noticeable the longer I've had the watch.

Anyway, thanks for the insult. Very constructive.

Good to hear. I feel like I really have to make a pronounced movement in its present state.

There have been people who have reported that their haptic gets weaker and then goes back to full strength on a reboot. Maybe you have that issue? I believe at least one poster had their watch replaced for this.
 
One thing I'd absolutely love to see in a later release is having a double tap on the watch face bring you to the home screen. Pushing the crown every time never feels natural.
 
Here's another change: in both the Stopwatch and Timer apps, the start button is now on the right side of the screen and the reset button is on the left. (At least, for those of us that are wearing the watch on our left wrist.)

This is much more fluid then it was before.

Tip for those that haven't downloaded the update yet: change your iPhone settings so that your iPhone doesn't go to sleep/lock while the update is taking place. Otherwise, the update will pause when the iPhone goes to sleep.

Additional observation, while not lightning fast, my USAA app now works. Prior to this update, it didn't work at all.

I didn't monitor my phone and it was sleeping during the update.

It's definitely better now , it even works by just turning your wrist without having to lift your arm and I really have the impression it stays on a bit longer .
 
I'm almost afraid to update, everything works perfect on mine. However, I only have one third party app (CNN) but it works perfect!

I think I'll wait a couple of days and see how this goes.
