They could have gone bigger, but then the watch would have probably been bigger AND the battery drain would be higHer. Next to GPS or Cellular connectivity the screen is the biggest drain when in use.
going bigger would’ve allowed for more battery in the watch. I want a 51mm AW edge to edge 51mm not fake 51mm.

The screen will be larger for me because I am coming from an S6 which is a 44mm. The flat display I think will look nicer. It has better battery life, better microphones, more rugged overall. I prefer the outdoor look and the orange band. I will keep my stainless to wear with my stainless band when a rugged watch is not the best option, the phone will accept several to be paired at once.
