Any clue on the blood oxygen sensor/mission situation? I missed most of the watch portion.

Also does the American version of AWU2 still not do blood oxygen?

Still missing. Such disappointment. I'm going to pass.

Rumor is the sleep apena detection needs blood ox sensor to work. So either they figured out a loop hole or are about ready to have a licensing deal with mosimo.

I hope you’re right. Because I like having the Oxygenation information for post-run recovery information/trends.

Yes! With my ultra 1 having it I can’t see myself upgrading and losing a feature I use every day for my running health and my sleep apnea trends with average blood oxygen over the course of the night.
