Out of curiosity, do any of the moderators know what the total number of One UI5 Watch Beta participants is?

I'm not a beta moderator but a good estimate as the leaderboard chart and the amount of people that will probably be in this beta without joining the community, it would be 350 members who joined the beta. That's your estimate!

Thanks Katninja! That's a fair estimate. I figured it was probably under 1K, and likely less than half of that. 

I just hope that a lot of the suggestions we have made based on our experiences with the 4 beta releases are incorporated into the Wear OS4 stable release that may be released as early as Friday. I had very little difficulty with the beta program other than I could not transfer the 4th beta download from my phone to the watch. I had to download directly to the watch via WiFi.  We'll  have to wait and see!

Probably a third of them have bricked watches for trying to escape the Beta prison here!

In that case I'll just bet we would be hearing from them, in no uncertain terms, too!  I know that things "happen", but in most cases bad things can be avoided by following the usual procedures and having a little patience. These watches are certainly a black box to a lot of people as there are no direct wires that connect them to their "world", and people get a little jittery over that. I, like most, have been fairly fortunate in that regard, having been able to avoid a lot of "bad things", at least up to now. No one deserves to go through those kinds of issues.
