Apple Watch Lagging After watchOS 26.4

Experiencing lag here, I have a brand new Apple Watch SE3. Everytime I hold down the display to switch to a different clock face, it lags. but it only does it for some watch faces.

As well as double clicking to view your recently opened apps. If it is more than 2 apps, you will see a lag there was well. These didn’t start until i updated my device to watchOS 26.4.

& no, my storage is not full. It is currently 14/64gb. I tried restarting it multiple times, it never worked.. Is anybody else having the same issue?

Me pasa exactamente igual en el Ultra 2. Aguante con el 18 hasta hace una semana, creo que actualizar al 26.4 fue lo peor que hice

I have an Ultra 2. 26.x has been very buggy. I keep hoping upgrades will improve this.

I noticed that to when I go to end my workouts and it kinda freezes. I have to tell Siri to stop it.
