Hey, I have the Apple Watxh Series 5, it’s awesome and had it since 2020. It’s working well but I like the keyboard and some of the features on the newer models.

I don’t want this become a “Should I upgrade to the 9 or wait for the X/10” thing so my question to the beautiful users Lemmy is Do you think the Apple Watch Series 5 will get WatchOS 11?

I will keep my current watch until I lose software support on my S5, Even though it’s stripped down.

Thanks

Series 4 will get WatchOS 10 this fall (source), I’m not gonna worry about 11 until next summer.

    I think so, but that is because I think watchOS 11 is going to be a very minor update.

    Unfortunatly nobody has a crystal sphere, but, looking at Wikipedia, I would say that the expected support span is of ~5 years. As the Series 4 is getting WatchOS 10, I would say that the Series 5 will get WatchOS 11.

    But... Apple could always change their minds for the worst (stop at 10) or for the better (going further than 11), only time will tell.
