Thinking about never updating to watchOS 10 (alien.top)

I’m on 9.6.3 on my SE (latest) and I’m so terrified of what everyone is saying about terrible battery life on the new OS. I’m perfectly happy on it, and I don’t see any of the (few) new “features” are worth it. Any thoughts?

I was one of those that had issues, but it was an issue between the OS and a third party app. Removing that app fixed it temporarily and the new update has resolved it from the OS level. During this Apple Support helped me out with no issues at all.

I mean, yes, feel free to remain on a back level of the OS "just in case", but any OS update could cause issues. Wait a little while before updating to make sure there's nothing too hideous and then do it. Otherwise, you'll get yourself in a mindset where you never update anything "just in case".
