Apple Watch Series 6, like its previous two predecessors (and arguably even earlier versions), is the world's best health and fitness tracker. With a blood oxygen monitor and always-on altimeter added to the ECG monitor, the heart rate monitor, fall detection, emergency SOS calling, and noise...

When it comes to smartwatches, it’s Apple against the world. It’s not that there aren’t plenty of other products to choose from — it’s more that the company has just utterly dominated the space to such a point that any other device is relegated to the realm of “ Apple Watch alternatives.

If you’re in the market for a great smartwatch, this is the way to go. You’ll have to be an iPhone user, unfortunately, but the Apple Watch Series 6 takes the already-awesome Apple Watch Series 5, and makes it slightly better.

Battery still average; Still no Android support

I've tried to steer clear in this review of the usual journalistic obsession with "What's new?" But in the final reckoning we simply have to acknowledge that not much has changed since the Series 5.

Apple Watch Series 6 might very well be the best smartwatch on the market – like the Series 5 before it. The “smart” experience remains fluid and useful while fitness features remain extremely easy to use and analyse. However, there’s little reason to upgrade from last gen.

As far as wearables are concerned, great app support, a vertically integrated ecosystem and rich features has usually kept the Apple Watch ahead of its competitors. But with companies like Huawei, Garmin and even Samsung gaining ground, the company has its work cut out for itself.

The Apple Watch Series 6 isn’t making any changes to how you know or already use an Apple Watch. What Apple is doing instead is adding newer capabilities on to what was already there.

Every year, I would open my drawer and look at my dress watches. Inevitably, they don’t work, the lack of usage resulting in their batteries’ death. The Apple Watch is the cause of it.

When Apple sent over a review unit of the Apple Watch Series 6 , I was intrigued. This was, after all, the very first time that I would be extensively using an Apple Watch—in part, because of my preference for Android smartphones in the past.

Apple didn’t invent the smartwatch, but it’s done a ton to improve it, delivering the same clean design and intuitive controls you know from its smartphones and computers. The Series 6 goes next level with an array of wellness features, including an oximeter to measure blood oxygen levels, sleep...
