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.

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

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
