After weeks of using the Apple Watch Series 10 (42mm Rose Gold Aluminium Case with Light Blush Sport Band; Model Numbers: MWWH3QA/A, MWWJ3QA/A, MWWJ3ZP/A, MWWH3ZP/A), I’m ready to share my in-depth review. This iteration promises significant improvements, particularly in screen size and health tracking capabilities. Let’s dive into the details to see if it lives up to the hype.

The most striking feature is undoubtedly the larger screen. Apple claims up to 75% more screen area than the Series 3 and up to 30% more than the Series 4, 5, 6, and SE, and this is immediately noticeable. Navigation is smoother, and viewing photos and text is a much more enjoyable experience. Beyond the screen, the Series 10 offers an array of health features including improved sleep tracking with detailed sleep stage analysis (REM, Core, Deep), blood oxygen monitoring, heart rate tracking, respiratory rate monitoring, and even wrist temperature tracking. The new Vitals app consolidates this information for easy viewing. The improved sleep tracking is particularly impressive; I found the data highly accurate and helpful in adjusting my sleep habits. The always-on display is also a welcome addition for quick glances at the time.

The Series 10’s performance is incredibly smooth. The watch responded instantly to all inputs, and I never experienced any lag or freezing. Battery life is a key concern for many smartwatch users, and I was pleasantly surprised. With moderate use (including notifications, workout tracking, and some app usage), I consistently got over a day of battery life. The fast charging is also a boon; getting 8 hours of sleep tracking with just an 8-minute charge is a fantastic feature. I did notice a slight increase in battery drain when using the always-on display extensively, but it remained within acceptable limits. GPS accuracy was also impressive during my runs and outdoor activities.

Pros:

• Significantly larger screen
• Advanced health tracking capabilities (sleep, blood oxygen, heart rate, etc.)
• Fast charging
• Smooth performance
• Accurate GPS
• Stylish design

Cons:

• Higher price point compared to previous models
• Battery life is slightly reduced with heavy always-on display use.

Overall, the Apple Watch Series 10 is a significant upgrade, especially in terms of screen size and health features. The improved sleep tracking alone makes it worth considering. While the price is a bit steep, the enhanced performance, larger display, and advanced health monitoring justify the cost for many users. If you’re looking for a premium smartwatch with comprehensive health tracking capabilities, I highly recommend the Apple Watch Series 10.
