I’ve been tracking my sleep with Sleep++, AutoSleep, and SleepWatch for years all installed on my WATCH Series 3 & 5 as well as my iPhone. This is nothing new. I charge my WATCH from 6pm-9pm daily.

I loved it. Moreover if you think this Covid-19 crisis will be over by next June I think you are fooling yourself. I believe this Covid-19 problem will be with us through all of next year. It will need to be online next year as well. I prefer this way of holding the WWDC.

Looks like the 2021 mini will use Face ID so the screen can be an inch larger diagonal without increasing the physical size of the device. I’m all in for that model.

So what would Series 4 battery life be if they implemented always-on display in a software update?

I have the same question.  If CPU/GPU are the same and the new model has to power double the storage, why can’t Series 4 have “Always On.”  Unless the battery tech has been radically improved in S5, I would imagine it’s possible.  

Watch the Apple Keynote from last Tuesday. Series 5 has an entirely new set of display components nothing like Series 4.

As far as I am aware, the screen is identical in the Series 4 vs Series 5. The difference is that the Series 5 has an added chip to make the magic happen.

The screen is completely different than the Series 4 screen. Did you not watch the Apple Keynote? There is nothing identical nor similar between the Series 4 screen and the Series 5 screen other than that they are both OLED.
