Which one fits you
Both need much the same wrist — roughly 49–68mm across the flat of the wrist. Neither will fit where the other won't, so decide on thickness, weight and features instead.
The Watch 5 and Watch S4 share a near-identical 47mm case, so wrist presence comes down to thickness, lug-to-lug and weight.
On the wrist the Watch S4 feels lighter (44.5g vs 56g, case only).
The Watch 5 is middle-of-the-pack for thickness among the 91 47mm watches in the database.
Among the 75 47mm watches we hold thickness for, the Watch S4 is thinner than 91%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
The Watch S4 is 0.3mm wider, 0.3mm longer, 0.3mm thinner and 11.5g lighter than the Watch 5. Both are circular.
