Apple Watch Series 5 GPS, 40mm Space Grey Aluminium Case with Black Sport Band MWV82X/A review
Apple's subtly improved watch adds a key overdue feature and improved software with this update, but it remains largely the same great smartwatch as last year.
Pros:
- The Apple Watch Series 5 adds an always-on display, so it can show the time all the time
- An added compass aids navigation and improves elevation readings
- Cellular models gain an international SOS mode.
Cons:
- Battery life remains a day and a half at best
- No new health features, and the watch lacks native sleep tracking
- Needs an iPhone to set up and work
- Offers only Apple's growing but limited selection of watch faces.

Apple Watch Series 5 review: This is the watch I've been waiting for
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.
Pros:
- All-day battery life
- Always-on display
- Tight integration with the iPhone
Cons:
- WatchOS 6 is buggy
- Still no sleep tracking

The Apple Watch is still the best smartwatch. Though the Series 5 feels like a minor update to last year’s Series 4, it will fit the bill for the vast majority of people buying Apple Watches for the first time.
Pros:
- Bright screen
- Always-on display is useful and power efficient
- Compass is handy for hiking and walking directions
- International emergency calling on cellular models
- Generally fast performance
Cons:
- No battery life improvements
- No third-party watchfaces
- No new fitness features

Apple Watch Series 5 review: Still the best smartwatch in town
With so many big advances in 2018, the Apple Watch Series 5 looks to hone and refine the experience that we saw with the Apple Watch Series 4 - which is no longer on sale. The changes, while welcomed, are fairly small this time around suggesting that Apple is putting the brakes on to avoid adding...

- Always-on display
- Compass
- Heart-rate monitoring
- Bands still fit from previous versions
- Two sizes
Cons:
- Not much of an upgrade from Series 4

- No international roaming

Apple Watch Series 5 review: the best smartwatch
There's a running joke in my recent iPad reviews: I just get to say "it's an iPad," and everybody knows what that means. It's a sign that the product isn't changing year over year, sure.
Pros:
- Finally
- an always-on screen
- Big
- beautiful display
- New apps round out its capabilities
Cons:
- Battery life hasn't improved
- Still no third-party watchfaces
- Doesn't work with Android phones

Review: The Apple Watch Series 5 leaves the competition in the dust
The 2018 Apple Watch Series 4 brought a lot to the table, and the Apple Watch Series 5 hasn't added a lot. But, Apple has added where it counts, and importantly, kept the same price point.
