Watch Series 5 is Apple's finest, but offers little over Series 3
As Apple introduces its new Watch Series 5, the company is discontinuing the similar Series 4 and lowering the price of 2017's Series 3. The price difference between the Series 3 and Series 5 is quite large; with the devices starting at $319 and $649 respectively, or $469 and $799 if you want the...

Apple’s iPhones numbers may have suffered in recent years, but when it comes to smartwatches, the company remains utterly dominant. Recent figures from Counterpoint put Apple Watch growth at 48% year over year for the first quarter, commanding more than a third of the total global smartwatch market.

Apple Watch Series 5 GPS, 44mm Space Grey Aluminium Case with Black Sport Band MWVF2X/A review
The telltale sign of a smartwatch is that its display will turn off when you’re not looking at it. However, while this saves battery, it also makes the watch look and feel somewhat unnatural as far as timepieces go.

Apple Watch Series 5 GPS, 44mm Space Grey Aluminium Case with Black Sport Band MWVF2X/A review
F or the last several weeks, I have worn the Apple Watch Series 5 at least once daily — and overall, I’m very happy with it. It is certainly my general-purpose smartwatch of choice and, to be honest, when I don’t wear it I end up missing some of the useful information Apple makes it possible to...
Apple Watch Series 5 GPS, 44mm Gold Aluminium Case with Pink Sand Sport Band MWVE2X/A review
Since its second generation the Apple Watch has been the best smartwatch for the iPhone. But for the Series 5 that’s changed. It’s not just the best smartwatch for the iPhone. The Apple Watch is now a solid reason to buy an iPhone in the first place.
Apple Watch Series 5 GPS, 44mm Space Grey Aluminium Case with Black Sport Band MWVF2X/A review
The Apple Watch Series 5 is a great all-around smartwatch. In fact, it’s probably one of the best smartwatches. But I’m actually not convinced it’s the best smartwatch Apple’s ever made (or anyone else for that matter). In fact, I actually think the Apple Watch Series 4 might take that crown.
