We've covered only the most significant differences in the above comparison - we didn't even have time, for example, to mention the cool new dynamic watch faces available for the Series 4's larger screen. But hopefully you get the idea.The newer model is...
Apple has made the Series 3 cheaper than the Series 2 yet packed in more storage and a faster processor. It will cost you more if you want built-in 4G, but that could be the killer feature if you've longed to use your Watch without having to carry your iP...
With the Apple Watch Series 3 it does feel like Apple has finally released a wearable that realises its potential. The LTE-equipped models have a freedom that is truly useful, especially in terms of health and fitness, but also for conveniently staying in...

The new Apple Watch Series 2 takes the main complaints about the attractive but flawed original Apple Watch - slow operation, lack of GPS, limited water resistance, short battery life - and solves or at least improves them systematically.Having completed...
The big question is whether these changes are enough – sure, the fitness credentials are good, and a solid upgrade, but these are the things we were hoping to see last time around, rather than having to wait two years for.But then again, the smartwatch ma...
The Apple Watch 2 feels more like a great gift than a necessary purchase – it's the cost that prevents it being a strong buy. It doesn't feel like it's too expensive when you hold it and discover what it can do, but ultimately it's still more of a novelty...
Apple's Apple Watch Series 2 is a huge improvement from the first-generation Apple Watch, but we're not sure it's enough to compete with the 4G-enabled Huawei Watch 2. Featuring more impressive fitness tracking, standalone support and Android Wear 2.0, Hu...
