Apple Watch Series 5 review
There's no question that the Apple Watch Series 5 is the absolute best smartwatch money can buy. It has an incredible screen, excellent app support, and the strongest set of sensors and features you'll find anywhere.
Apple Watch Series 5 review
The Apple Watch Series 5 brings an always-on display and other minor enhancements, but it's still missing the one thing it really needs: better battery life.
Apple Watch Series 5 Review: Always-on makes all the difference
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

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 rated: This is the best smartwatch you can buy
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

Apple worked out most of the Apple Watch's kinks with the Series 3, and since then the company has been adding improvements that make the Watch a more convenient and phone-freeing accessory.- Solid build quality and design
- Always-on display mode doesn't impact 18-hour battery life
- Always-on display mode can be disabled
- Accurate internal sensors (heart rate
- GPS
- etc)
- On-Watch app store is easy to use and useful
- Cycle tracking is thorough and discrete with watchOS app
- Activity Trends isn't as detailed as it should be
- Still no native sleep tracking
- Not many Watch-only apps yet
- Only works with iOS devices
- Expensive
- No third-party watch faces
