When it comes to smartwatches, there's the Apple Watch and then there's everything else. Five generations of wearable have seen Cupertino's timepiece lose most of its rough edges; now, the Apple Watch Series 5 is taking one of the last big usability issues to task.
Always-on display doesn't impact battery life; watchOS 6 brings App Store and more to the wrist; Display looks great; Still the smartwatch to beat
Still no third-party watch faces; Standalone features still aren't quite divorced from iPhone; Battery life has stayed the same
There's no question that the Apple Watch Series 5 is the absolute best smartwatch money can buy. It has an incredible screen, excellent app support, and the strongest set of sensors and features you'll find anywhere.
From the outside, and on paper, there's not a huge difference between last year's Apple Watch Series 4, and the recently released Series 5. The aluminum and stainless steel models look identical, but the Series 5 has bragging rights, thanks to new titanium and ceramic housings.
All-day battery life; Always-on display; Tight integration with the iPhone
WatchOS 6 is buggy; Still no sleep tracking
This is my first Apple Watch and so far I really like it. I love the "60s spy" aspect of being able to talk to my wrist to send text messages, and now I don't have to get my phone out of my bag to check the time or see messages. It works like I'd expect.
Love it. Never had an Apple Watch before, and now I don't know how I didn't. Lives up to the hype. The battery died really fast throughout the first day, but after everything was set up and done updating, it was fine.
Really good responsive watch. So much you can do with it. Love all the faces. So many apps. Particularly good fitness apps. Feels really good on my wrist with a metallic band Great buy
Apple Watch Series 5 has about 30% less battery life with always on display enabled. If I workout, I have to put my Apple Watch on the charger by early evening. There is very little difference in the Series 5 and Series4 with always on display disabled.
