I just Hope  the new screen won't drain battery.
The 7 has a spectacular battery life. I don't need sharp smartphone like style color on a watch I'm using for fitness.

But they could add microphone so we finally be able to answer a phone call without running around to find phone 😄

Use watch face with as much black as possible and new screen will consume less than the old one.

I don't need a big, fancy display. Give me something that I can run with for 100 kms without my arm getting tired.. maybe I'm in the minority here.
