Deal HistoryÂ
Deal History includes data from multiple reputable stores, such as Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. The lowest price among stores for a given day is selected as the "Sale Price".
Sale Price does not include sale prices at Amazon unless a deal was posted by a community member.
the physical battery capacity did increase a decent amount (nearly 10%!), but the "all-day" battery life the S11 claims is also due in part to Apple tweaking how they test battery runtime of one full discharge cycle. you can see a more detailed description below:
anecdotally, I've noticed effectively 0 functional battery runtime difference on my personal 46mm S10 and friends with S11s. both will last a full day with probably ~30ish% charge left with AOD on, 2-3 hours of combined cardio and traditional strength training workout tracking
if battery life is important to you, I recommend getting an Ultra or you can disable loud volume notifications, handwashing detection, background app refresh, AOD, and some other features
tldr; S11 battery improvement looks generational on paper, but is really an incremental-at-best improvement irl conditions and usage
Walmart+ is $49/year and includes Paramount+ or Peacock plus free shipping frequently much faster than Amazon, especially if you don't live in a metro area with an Amazon warehouse. (Some things are delivery only which then involves minimums and tips). I was skeptical but it has actually been useful and never more than $49 with one promotion or another. Plus you don't actually need to enter a Walmart store. That is the best part.

46mm S11 has a 363mAh battery (haven't been able to find a teardown for the 42mm S11 yet, but based on their phrasing in the release event it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume 42mm S11 got a similar 10% bump like the 46mm)

Edit: Actually just cancelled because of the LTE only, that stinks for future proofing.
Got one from Napa, CA today.
Sacramento might have one.
