After using the Apple Watch Series 10 for a week, it’s evident that the device brings several meaningful improvements, though not all are game-changing for every user.
Design and Display
The Series 10 is thinner and lighter, which improves comfort, especially during extended wear. The larger 42mm and 46mm displays are a nice touch, providing more screen space and better readability, but not a drastic difference from recent models like the Series 7, 8, or 9.
Health and Fitness Features
One of the most significant updates is the sleep apnea detection feature. This addition could be a game-changer for those with sleep concerns, offering more detailed health insights than previous models.
The depth gauge and water temperature sensor are useful for swimmers, but these features will be more relevant for specific users rather than the general audience.
Performance and Charging
The faster charging (up to 8 hours of use after 15 minutes) is convenient but isn’t a huge leap forward.
The watchOS 11 updates are nice improvements but largely dependent on software, meaning they could trickle down to older models.
Conclusion
The Apple Watch Series 10 introduces some key features, like sleep apnea detection, that will appeal to users with specific health needs. For others, the upgrades may feel incremental.
If you have a Series 7, 8, or 9, you might not find enough here to justify upgrading, but for older watch users, the improvements could be worth the switch.
