Still one of the slickest smartwatches out there, larger display, gorgeous design, lightweight, smooth performance and navigation, louder speaker
Battery life not as good as before, not many improvements over Apple Watch 5, still won't track sleep natively
Those who've never used an Apple Watch before will undoubtedly fall in love with the Series 5. Overall, it's an impressive bit of kit; it's capable of accurately tracking a host of workouts with ease as well as provide some great lifestyle features, intui...

expensive, only works with an iPhone, no sleep tracking, too popular
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.The s...

Excellent design (and new titanium finish),Fantastic health features, including ECG,Good, comprehensive fitness options,32GB of on-board storage,Always-on screen is lovely,
…but does reduce battery life compared to Series 4, Doesn't work with Android at all, still,
The Apple Watch Series 5 is, simply, the best smartwatch on the market. It takes everything that was great about the Series 4 - stylish looks, great fitness features, potentially life-saving health tools, slick notifications and apps - and adds that lovel...

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. It's expensive for sure, but when you...

Alwayson display, Timeless design, App Store and app support is stellar
Battery life just OK, No native sleep tracking, Still very expensive

Should you update from the Series 3 to the 5? This is a difficult question.If you're running a Series 3, upgrading to a Series 5 will undoubtedly provide you with a plethora of advantages: a compass, an ECG, better heart monitors, upgraded Bluetooth, more...
Always-on display, Menstrual-cycle tracking, More options than ever
Battery life takes a cut, Very minor upgrade
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. Otherwise, the biggest changes come with watchOS...

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
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 Appl...
Always-on display, More storage, WatchOS 6 brings decent upgrades
Too similar to Apple Watch 4, Battery life poorer, Always-on display too bright at night
The Apple Watch 5 is a premium smartwatch, but one that doesn't offer a huge upgrade over the Watch 4, apart from the very welcome always-on display. It hasn't risen in price, and there's more storage on offer – but many will find the cheaper Apple Watch...
