Unless one has a giant hole in their wall, there’s no need for that obnoxiously huge back plate behind the unit. Definitely takes away the sleek look of the thermostat itself. 

I *have* that giant hole in my wall from the previous person who installed the thermostat. The hole showed with just the thermostat mounted so I had to use the skirt. I agree, doesn’t look as good but you dont need it if the hole is small enough.

You can sneer at #3 all you want, but I do not have gorilla size wrists and I can wear #3 in the pool. The damn thing works!

Haha you mean the Series 3?
My biggest issue is that the processor is quite old at this point and Apple can't support these with Software updates forever. The SE has the same processor as the Series 7 and only costs about $100 more than the Series 3. If Apple provides 6 years of updates, which is pretty great, the Series 3 will likely be cut off in the next year or so while the SE, along with the series 7, have 5-6 more years to go. I think you get a whole lot more value!

That cable management is bad. 

I don’t have them routed well in my pics because, well, a hidden wire doesn’t look like much. I ended up having this sitting right on my dash and I routed the cables around the edge of the plastic and tuck them underneath. You don’t see the cable at all.

So, how long before we hear about someone being able to hack these into a one-tap information collector? NFC tap to a venerable device to gather as much information as possible. Such interesting capabilities for such a great leather case, as long as the build and leather quality is as good as my Nomad air pods pro case. I’ve owned it with heavy daily use for as long as it’s been out and it has held up wonderfully. 

You’ll never hear about that. It simply isn’t possible There’s no information tied to the NFC chip other than routing to your personal profile you’ve set up. It doesn’t connect to your phone at all. It basically just sends them to a website. No personal information whatsoever.

So if you have a Nike Series 4 is it compatible with regular bands??

Yup. The Nike is compatible with all bands, they just can only be purchased with Nike bands. So if you wanted to buy the Nike reversion with the leather loop, you can’t. You’d have the buy the Nike watch with a Nike band and buy the leather link separately at full price.
