Apple Watch Series 10 GPS 42mm Rose Gold Aluminium Case With Plum Sport Loop (MWWK3QA/A, MWWK3ZP/A) Review
The Apple Watch Series 10, specifically the 42mm Rose Gold Aluminium model with the Plum Sport Loop (model numbers MWWK3QA/A, MWWK3ZP/A), promises a significant upgrade in screen size and health tracking capabilities. Having spent several weeks with this device, I’m ready to share my in-depth review.
The most immediately noticeable improvement is the screen. Apple’s claim of a significantly larger display area compared to previous models is accurate. Navigating the interface and viewing notifications is noticeably more comfortable. Beyond the screen, the Series 10 boasts impressive health features. The new Vitals app provides a comprehensive overview of key health metrics, including blood oxygen, heart rate, respiratory rate, wrist temperature, and sleep duration. The improved sleep tracking is particularly noteworthy, offering detailed insights into different sleep stages.
Other features include the usual suspects: fitness tracking, contactless payments, app notifications, and more. The Plum Sport Loop band is comfortable and stylish, perfect for everyday wear and workouts.
The Series 10 is remarkably responsive. Apps launch quickly, and the interface remains fluid even under heavy usage. Battery life is decent; I consistently got a full day’s use with moderate usage, including fitness tracking and notifications. The accuracy of the health sensors has been impressive. Sleep tracking data aligns with my observations, and the heart rate monitor is consistently reliable.
While the improved screen is a significant upgrade, the charging speed could be faster. Although 8 hours of sleep tracking is achievable with an 8-minute charge, a faster charging solution would be a welcome addition in future iterations.
Pros:
- Larger, more vibrant display
- Improved sleep tracking with detailed insights
- Comprehensive health tracking with the new Vitals app
- Responsive and fluid performance
- Comfortable and stylish Plum Sport Loop band
Cons:
- Charging speed could be faster
- Price point remains high
The Apple Watch Series 10 (MWWK3QA/A, MWWK3ZP/A) is a significant upgrade over previous models. The larger screen, improved health tracking features, and responsive performance make it a compelling option for anyone looking for a premium smartwatch. While the price point is high, the enhancements justify the cost, especially for users who prioritize health tracking and a premium user experience. I would highly recommend this watch.
