People may complain about not having big changes in each year for the watch, but I think it’s important that Apple release certain products every year even if the changes are minor. Just look at the MacBook/iMac/Mac Pro lines and how much people want an upgrade (available at least) every year. It shows apples dedication to the line and it’s very important in my opinion.
Most of us really don’t get a new one every year. However releasing a new model every year, even with fewer changes, means people who update less frequently always get a huge improvement.
I replaced my series 3 only when it started having memory problems and would no longer update. My series 6 is fantastic and I have no plans to replace it yet, but …… I’m hanging on the edge of my seat every year for the new model, wondering whether they’ll add a health sensor or other feature that I “must have”
Anyone that has done software/hardware development knows that more new features usually means more bugs/broken stuff. I'm always glad to see stability/minor updates
