Bought this about a month ago and live it! Easy to use, great battery life!

I’ve never had a watch and I’m 44 love my first one to be Apple Watch

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 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.

Finally; an always-on screen; Big; beautiful display; New apps round out its capabilities

Battery life hasn't improved; Still no third-party watchfaces; Doesn't work with Android phones

Even with small changes, the Apple Watch Series 5 remains the best smartwatch

Stylish design; Comprehensive fitness features; Health features are genuinely helpful; Useful always-on display; Cellular model can replace your phone for a short time

No major changes over the Series 4; No native sleep tracking

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

Not much of an upgrade from Series 4; No sleep tracking; No international roaming

The Apple Watch 5 (or Series 5) is the best smartwatch on the market – if you're an iPhone user that is. While the upgrades this year are minimal on paper, the addition of a screen that displays the time whether you're looking at the watch or not should make lots of people very happy.

Always-on display makes it feels a lot more like a 'proper watch; All the previous straps still work; Great at making you want to move and be active

No huge improvements to battery life; No support for Android users

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; Menstrual-cycle tracking; More options than ever

If you already own or are looking to buy an iPhone, you’re probably going to want to pair it up with an Apple Watch sooner or later.

Even if you’re an Android user, this is still the smartwatch experience to beat.

Immaculate design; Rich software; Always-on display;

No sleep tracking; Still no ECG in Australia; Premium price-tag;
