Apple Watch Series 5
If you aren't an iOS user, meanwhile, we recommend the $200 Fitbit Versa 2 . While it doesn't feature nearly as much in the way of apps as the Apple Watch, it offers an always-on display, accurate fitness tracking, and up to five days of battery life.- Always-on display
- Excellent fitness tracking and heart rate monitoring accuracy
- WatchOS 6 brings useful new apps
- Smooth performance
- Expensive
- No built-in sleep tracking
- Battery life remains the same
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.

The Series 5 is a small upgrade on paper, but the always-on display has the desired effect of making this feel much closer to a real watch. You do sacrifice some battery life for it, but not drastically so.- Always-on display

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.- Bright screen

- Compass is handy for hiking and walking directions
- International emergency calling on cellular models
- Generally fast performance
- No battery life improvements
- No third-party watchfaces
- No new fitness features

- beautiful display
- New apps round out its capabilities
