Does the Apple Watch do sleep tracking out of the box now? I was one of the 5 people who bought a Microsoft Band, and I really enjoyed the sleep tracking features. I still haven't pulled the trigger on an Apple Watch since switching to and iPhone because it (used to?) lack sleep tracking as a feature.

No. It still is intended to charge overnight. Apple store sells other sleep tracking products at this time.

It charges fast enough that you can wear it almost 24/7 if you plan ahead and charge for a bit in the morning and at night

There are sleep tracking apps that integrate with the health app, but I tried two of them (sleep++ and pillow) and I found them to be very inaccurate.

It does, I like AutoSleep and SleepWatch to track my sleep, and as a fellow poster added, you can get by with just a few minutes of charging in the morning and night
