the only differences are really 3 things: S11 cellular gets 5G, aluminum S11 watches get a ceramic coated Ion-X glass that's supposed to be twice as scratch resistant as the untreated Ion-X glass on aluminum S10 models, and lastly the battery life on a single charge "improved" (in part because battery capacity got a decent 10% increase, but also because Apple fudged and tweaked the way they test battery runtime by reducing frequency of time checks and active screen time. you can check this for yourself by comparing the battery testing methodology in the footnotes on the compare page with S11 and S10 pulled up side-by-side)
or you can just check this post here:https://www.reddit.com/r/AppleWatch/s/QOsIm1YrRc
the point is, don't expect a significant jump in battery life between S10 and S11
imo this is just an ok deal for cellular and there's a chance there might be something better when bf / cyber monday roll around, but who knows
Series 11 also uses the same S10 SiP as Series 10
personally, I got an S10 during Target's one day sale about a month ago and am very happy with it after checking out Series 11 in an Apple Store and seeing effectively 0 tangible differences
tldr; S11 and S10 are basically identical
