Battery only lasts a little more than a day. Most models and configurations cost more than they should. Requires an iPhone to work. Interface can be confusing. Many apps load slowly. Lacks built-in GPS
Long load times on third party apps
Steep learning curve
Expensive
Expensive at any level
Battery life is one day
Missing many key apps
Expensive… very expensive
Battery could be a little better
Apps can fail too easily
Premium pricing
A day battery life
Thick watch body
Lacks swim-ready water resistance and onboard GPS found in Series 2 models. Only comes in aluminum models
Starting prices are higher than last year. Battery life still won't last past two days. Watch face options are still very limited in choice and function. Only works with iPhones

If you are an iPhone user there is literally no contest: the Apple Watch is the only game in town. But we have been impressed with the LG G Watch R. Apple needs to stay on top of its game to keep ahead of Android in this area, and the LG G Watch R is a ve...

Abstract: Hold on to your hats, guys: it is Microsoft vs Apple, just like the old days. In this case we are comparing the Apple Watch with its Microsoft counterpart the Microsoft Band. Wait, you hadn't heard of the Microsoft Band? Well, quite. The Band is a quirky...
Abstract: Long ago, Apple fans wore their iPod nanos on their wrists, as a sort of prehistoric Apple Watch. But how well would this setup compare to the real thing? You might surprised. Here's our head-to-head comparison of the Apple Watch and the iPod nano 6Gk, co...
Gorgeous design, Comfortable to wear, Multiple variants to appeal to many people
Interface can be counterintuitive at first and occasionally feels sluggish
The Apple Watch isn't the first ever smartwatch, and it doesn't really do anything rival products don't do. But what it does do, it does as well as any smartwatch out there, thanks to Apple's user interface expertise. It's a slick device to use, but be wa...
Abstract: Apple has been touting the Apple Watch as a "groundbreaking health and fitness companion" since chief executive Tim Cook first revealed it last September . It has been designed to help anyone who wears it lead a healthier life by being more active, accord...
Lacklustre launch apps, time checking is problematic, expensive
When Guy Sémon, Tag Heuer general director, told Wired back in March that the Apple Watch was not a watch but a connected device for the wrist , he was more or less correct. But this is not a bad thing. Having a second screen for your iPhone is most defi...

Great design, Glances, stylish, battery life, reply to text messages, photo watch faces, Apple Pay
Apps are slow to load when not native, no GPS, no third-party watch faces, doesn't offer huge amounts over what is on the market
The Apple Watch is a powerful smartwatch with plenty of features on offer - from calls, to notifications, and thousands of apps all on your wrist. There's not much that sets it apart from the competition, however, save for its good-looking design...

Abstract: There are a host of answers, and while I've not yet found one that's utterly compelling, this is by far the best smartwatch I've used. It's the first where I've consciously really wanted to make sure I'm always wearing it and that the battery doesn't run ...

Abstract: We decided to compare the Apple Watch with one of our favourite of the many Android Wear watches that abound - the Moto 360. The Motorola watch is unusual in that it offers Apple-esque levels of design- and build-quality, and it comes with a striking circ...
