Not looking for faults, just annoying that the haptics are so weak.

Wow! That’s a cool story. Love it. I hope one day you get to visit the spaceship. I’m pretty sure you have friends working in there. Ha! You remember the picture? It’s a classic. @julit0
Try wearing the same band as your aluminium and check the haptics settings. Never heard that SS haptics are weaker than AL.
Unless you got a lemon 🍋
Drop by an Apple store if it's open?
How come I don’t have this problem with my titanium Watch?
Same with all the bands, pretty sure it’s because of the thicker stainless steel. I’ll test some stainless steel models out, once stores are allowing walk ins.
No test out a titanium model.
The Watch is so pretty. I’m 🤤
I wish! Do you think I want to be buying fake bands?? 😭😭
It sounds like you have your ways around it. 😂 tell us your secret.
Nah, no more new apple products for 3 years 😁
yep. I noticed as well and saw a thread where people were discussing it as well. Im OK, with that. the auto bright feature is horrible and is really pissing me off. unable to barely see my display in a dark room is unacceptable!! .

Looks like Tim Apple is cutting cost on stronger haptic engines, call them up and demand 10 free watch bands. 🤔😂
I upgraded from an aluminium to a stainless steel apple watch and I’ve noticed too the haptic force difference. Not a dealbreaker but I wish I could increase the haptics
That's weird. Maybe you're not used to wearing the heavier SS. I've been using SS since S3 so I'm used to the weight and feedback. Definitely shouldn't be any weaker than AL though.
This is the first time flexing a SS model. Maybe I’ll get use to the weaker haptics 🤔
It’s annoying because I absolutely love the premium finish of the stainless steel on apple watch. I would be okay to sacrifice a little more battery life in exchange of more powerful haptics, but I guess the actual haptics engine is already at its maximum
LFC, take a page from Nike’s book and, just do it. Haha.
And yes! I’m excited for the Milanese loop! Still wish they made it in space black like back in my S0 days but graphite should hopefully match just as well as the old SB color.
They arrive tomorrow with my watch!
gonna be a long 24 hour wait 🥴
I also bought 2 polishing cloths haha 👀

For now at least. Since I’ve always had SS models, I am used to the feedback. As Apple continues to improve the AW, hopefully they can integrate a stronger haptics engine.
What is there to break?? 🤔
