I've been using my apple watch S4 for a few years now and the battery is still going strong and all the features still work. Its tough as nails and like any other apple product you'll get your money's worth. I'm looking forward to upgrading to a series 8 when it drops though, some of the aesthetics do feel a bit dated and I'd like a redesign.
