Since they removed the only new feature it is really no different that Series 8. Why pay more.
Blood oxygen came out in series 6…

This sucks. I'd consider upgrading my series 4, but I'd then have to upgrade iOS from 15.7 to 17.4, which I have no desire to do right now. I'd also then have to update macOS to probably at least Ventura, if not Sonoma, again, which I have no desire to do right now.
Dude. You're missing out on all the fun.

I don't think its specifically about the sensor itself, its that they lied to consumers and are now disabling features people already paid for. At that point, it doesn't matter if they use it or not. They're being swindled and told that its OK (because you never use it, right?).
I thought it was just new purchases so if you already own one, you can use the feature?

So, going to continue with the series 4 for now. Fortunately, the battery life is still all day for me.
