Apple Watch Series 10 (MWY23QA/A) Review: The Largest Screen Yet!

The Apple Watch Series 10 (MWY23QA/A) boasts the largest screen ever seen on an Apple Watch, promising a significant upgrade over previous models. I’ve been wearing this 46mm Silver Aluminium case with the Cloud Sport Loop for the past few weeks, putting its new features and performance to the test. This in-depth review will explore its strengths and weaknesses, helping you decide if it’s the right smartwatch for you.
Key Features
The Series 10’s standout feature is undoubtedly its expansive display. The increase in screen real estate is immediately noticeable and makes interacting with the watchOS interface significantly more comfortable. Beyond the screen, the advanced health tracking capabilities are impressive. The new Vitals app provides a comprehensive overview of your daily health metrics, including blood oxygen, heart rate, respiratory rate, and sleep data. The sleep tracking is particularly robust, offering detailed insights into your sleep stages and offering suggestions for improving your sleep hygiene. The improved temperature sensor, incorporated into the Cycle Tracking app, adds another layer of data for those who utilize this feature. The cellular connectivity is also a game changer for those who want to stay connected even without their phone.
Performance and Battery Life
The Series 10 is incredibly responsive. Navigation is smooth and seamless, and apps launch quickly. I experienced no lag or performance issues during my testing. Battery life has also been commendable. While the larger screen might raise concerns about battery drain, I consistently achieved a full day of use with moderate to heavy usage, including workouts, notifications, and music streaming. Charging is relatively quick; I found that an 8-minute charge was enough for several hours of sleep tracking.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Larger screen, improved health tracking features (especially sleep tracking and the Vitals app), responsive performance, cellular connectivity, stylish design.
- Cons: Price point is high, some features may be unnecessary for casual users.
Final Verdict
The Apple Watch Series 10 (MWY23QA/A) is a significant upgrade, particularly for those prioritizing a larger screen and enhanced health tracking. The improvements in sleep tracking and the addition of the Vitals app are noteworthy. While the price is undeniably premium, the combination of performance, features, and design makes it a compelling option for those willing to invest in a high-end smartwatch. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a comprehensive and feature-rich wearable device.
