This is absolutely ridiculous. Why is this thing so bright? I came from an Apple Watch and it NEVER disrupted my sleep - not once. Apple's sensors work all night long measuring sleep, temperature, sleep apnea, everything, without turning my bedroom into a disco.

The watch fits fine on my wrist, but here's the problem: when I move slightly in bed, the watch shifts just a couple millimeters on my hand. That tiny movement is enough to expose the sensors underneath, and suddenly there's a blazing bright light shooting out from under the watch face that lights up the entire room like I'm wearing a searchlight.

This is insane. I'm not going to strap this thing so tight that it cuts off my circulation just to keep the sensors covered. A properly designed device shouldn't turn into a lighthouse the second it moves a fraction of an inch.

This completely defeats the purpose of sleep tracking when the device itself is what's keeping me awake. Fix this immediately - this is a major design failure.

You are completely right the people saying otherwise don't have a clue what they're talking about. It's like you have one of those Christmas lights that you shine on the outside of the house in your bedroom with red and green everywhere. Never had this problem with any other sleep tracking sensors. I actually wear wristbands that are very thin and comfortable over the watch and it's still shines through those.
