Yes I think you are right except that it comes at the cost of a device that is anti-anatomy :) a bulge on your wrist to wear 12h ...

Maybe they'll refine and refine those sensors to make it flat? They still add weight I think?

The casing and screen are much of the bulk, but the LTE is no slouch either. If you are ok with e-ink display and no LTE, I’m sure something really thin is possible. But I don’t see something like that with LTE as possible yet. By the time it is, probably the health hardware will be small enough to go along with it.

I think they’re just talking about the bottom with the sensors. They bulge out to get a more accurate reading. It would be more comfortable if that was flat.

Ah, I just had to take off my watch right now to see those, I've never noticed the bulge before.

Ha. People are so different, I was annoyed and distracted by that since minute one :)))
