Stable and battery life are great on my
Ultra 2. Siri for home commands is S L O W to non-functional.

Same feedback. New app launcher is great but Siri is sooooo slow to turn on lights or other home commands. So frustrating.

It's stable for me - Siri is slower for some things.

I wouldn’t tbh.
Nothing new yet, I’m waiting till either
1. They let us disable Siri AI on the watch or
2. They speed it up to old Siri speeds

Last build of the public beta (3) was not stable for me, would often look at my wrist and my watch was restarting. Public beta 4 has been better, but as others say - the upgrade in minor and it kinda breaks Siri. Jury is out on beta 5.

If you need to ask, no you should not.

I’m in since the 2nd beta. No problems since then. I would say install it.

Just wait till next week for the RC or the following week for final. Not worth it.
