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

Bigger and improved screen, Long battery life, Much-improved performance, Accurate step tracking, Walkie-Talkie conversations are a blast, New heart features could save lives, Talking to Siri is easier
More expensive than ever, Transferring LTE service can be tricky, ECG feature isn't ready yet, Some watch faces feel like information overload, Rival watches have even better battery life
Apple has done a lot of work here, and nearly all of it is excellent. The big-screen redesign was long overdue and well-executed. The Watch's performance has improved to the point where it more or less just does what you need when you need it. WatchOS 5 h...

Mesmerizing new display, Fast and smooth performance, Health features could be game-changers, Battery life hasn't suffered
Siri still falls short, Expensive
I find the trajectory of the two main smartwatch platforms fascinating right now. Wear OS, which started out pushing practical functionality and health tracking, is now rushing toward the fashion end of the segment. In contrast, the Apple Watch started ou...
battery life, Faster performance, Fall detection has the potential to be lifesaving, ECG features give users more control to monitor their health on a daily basis, Accurate auto workout detection and ending feature, WebKit support makes viewing HTML links
ECG app isn't available yet, WatchOS 5 drops support for Series 0 devices, New complications are only compatible with new watch faces, Still no support for third-party watch faces, Still no native sleep tracking, Siri has trouble completing Shortcuts

Abstract: If you've been on the fence about the Apple Watch, I understand where you're coming from. Early versions were at least disappointing, if not perplexing, limited as much by hardware and software as Apple's pricing and vision. Holdouts still ask the same qu...

Big, beautiful display, Advanced health sensors, Faster processing power, Useful Raise to Speak Siri
Expensive
The Series 4 isn’t perfect. The Apple Watch has been coasting on 18-hour battery life since it launched, which makes it less than ideal for tracking sleep, and that hasn’t changed with the Series 4. And many people tell me they would love an Apple Watch b...
Abstract: Apple announced its Apple Watch Series 4 a week ago and the early reviews that dropped this week are about as glowing as is possible. I'm not shocked by that either, because it was pretty obvious as Apple revealed their new watch that it was the most impr...
