If you're rocking an older Apple Watch or are interested in upgrading from the Apple Watch SE, the Series 7 is a great package.

Larger display looks great, Battery life is excellent, App Store remains unrivalled

The Apple Watch Series 7 is an excellent smartwatch. It’s not the massive upgrade some were hoping for — but it doesn’t necessarily need to be. The larger display is nice, and I appreciate the efforts Apple is making to improve on charging.

This new iterative smartwatch focuses on biking, and the battery life still stinks.

Bigger, beautiful display. New QWERTY keyboard to ditch texting on your phone. Faster charging. Updated algorithms, especially for biking. The usual full suite of health features. Seamless incorporation with Apple software and hardware.

Battery still barely lasts a full day. Not enough newness to convince me to upgrade.

The Apple iPhone 14 isn’t a huge upgrade on the iPhone 13, yet it still is a great phone with a top camera, good battery life and all the iOS benefits.

It might not be the redesign some had hoped for, but the larger display really makes a difference to the Apple Watch experience on offer – and improved charging speeds are a nice touch too.

Fast charging speeds, Noticeably larger display, A feature-packed software experience
