The editors didn't like
Battery life takes a major hit when making calls or during GPS workouts. 42mm cellular model is expensive
And that's before monthly wireless service and Apple Music fees. Still requires an iPhone to set up and pair with
Ability to ditch the iPhone, WatchOS 4, Ease of making calls, Still looks the part, Greater fitness focus than before
Call issues if you are on captive Wi-Fi network, No international roaming
When the Apple Watch Series 3 launched it didn't feel ready. Now 3 months later its a very different story. In many ways it works as an improved version of the already good Series 2 offering with the big stand out feature being the 4G connectivity.But if...
Good smartwatch battery life, Clear, bright screen
Only iPhone compatible, Siri still patchy
The two versions of the Apple Watch 3 impress - but the cheaper, non-4G version of the wearable delivers good value for money and top fitness capabilities from the wrist...
Snappier performance, Improved exercise tracking, Super-bright and clear display, Decent battery life (when not reliant on LTE), watchOS 4 improvements, Apple Pay is still super useful
LTE has a big impact on battery life, Needs more dedicated watch apps to make use of LTE, Need to wait for Apple Music streaming, Siri doesn't always work, No LTE roaming

In a few generations it may seem strange that smartwatches used to be little more than glorified accessories for smartphones, and the Series 3 is clearly a step towards the product's future as an independent device.In the short term, and bearing in mind t...
The Series 3 with LTE does what it set out to do, but it is a bridge product. We are not in a sci-fi world where everyone wants a watch to make calls instead of a smartphone.Apple has nailed the integration way better than any other manufacturer, but with...
Cellular setup, signal strength indoors, no playing nice with thirdparty services
This killer app of the new Watch is the cellular service, so don't scrimp on that £70 and go for that version. The Watch itself is ready for this function it seems, but perhaps that's not the case for the telecoms providers – or provider. The Series 3 doe...
