I have yet to find any reason to update my Series 3.
Much larger screen was, by itself, enough reason for me to get the 4. May keep it for a while longer.

battery life is still pathetic for them to be claiming this to be a sports watch of any kind. I'll stick with my Garmin that I can go for a long run AND still not have to recharge for several days.
An hour and 45 minutes of workout with Bluetooth and cellular takes a baseball bat to my watch’s battery. It goes right back on the charger. And that’s before my day even really begins.

I have an S6, I use it thoughout every day, I sleep with it on. Battery performance is good. For the amount of functions on this watch in this small package it is actually a fantastic performer. I'm not surprised at all that over 110 million were sold in 5 years.
If battery performance is pathetic for you then stay with your very long lasting Garmin. For your smartphones, laptops etc, I'm sure you lead a multi day charmed life of no charging too.

They should have licensed the song of the same name, “hello sunshine” by Aretha Franklin. That’s a banger, one of my favorite Aretha songs ever:

Fall detection needs work. In the eight months I’ve had my S6 I’ve gotten three false fall detection alerts. My actions at the times of the alerts were nothing even close to a fall.
