Is the always on display enough to justify the upgrade for you?
It’s not worth the upgrade I’m gunna keep my series 4 and wait till next year!! The only thing it has that my series 4 don’t have is the always on display and the compass and I don’t need either..Apple did a update last Friday which gave me all the new stuff the series 5 has except the two things I just mentioned so we shall see what cool things they come up with next year cause this year was a huge let down!!
Guys here’s a tip for battery life (it’s appalling) turn ON always on display, and turn OFF wake screen on wrist raise. Doubles battery life. Also worth noting that apps on the faces of not auto refresh until the watch is woke, which also helps save your battery cheers!
Wow, the Apple watch just now got features that Samsung and Google had for years! What have y’all been paying for??
I have Not long bought a Apple Watch Series 4 which I am still paying for so I will be buying the Series 5 next year for certain or unless they bring another one out then I will go for that instead Lol 😂
ABSOLUTELY USELESS !! another waste of money.
When you plaster your product everywhere just to get people to buy it.
Everyone was trippin when they realized their phone allows them to track you and your movements. Now we gladly pay to enjoy less and less privacy
The only thing left for me to buy a smart watch is at least 3 day battery life.
Finally! Now I don’t have to tilt my wrist slightly down anymore and I can navigate my way around purely by compass!
I read a comment where someone said the Titanium on display looked scratched already. More scratches than the SS. Can anyone confirm?
I wish battery life was better. It’s definitely worse for me than the series 4. Hopefully Apple pushes out an update that can improve battery life
Just bough watch 4 at a great discount . Better than watch 5 currently in my opinion
To me it’s like a whole new ballgame for the Apple Watch. Ive got the series 4 stainless and having the display always on is night and day for me. I have already ordered my series 5 still waiting for it to ship :/
Hi. Can you confirm how much music storage capacity for Apple Watch 5? The previous models have 2GB of storage capacity.
Wow.…34 watch faces…total
What’s the name of the band, please
You don’t know why they don’t have a watch face store? You can’t even guess? It’s design, they want complete control over how the device looks, including the front of it..
Man, their watches are never gonna be worth it.
What about burn in
Did you try the watch in direct sunlight at a certain angle? The always on display flickers and gets really dark… please check that
I upgraded from a series 2
This one is amazing
Soon these watches will replace phones and instead of having a phone people will have a tablet (or a foldable tablet) for things that require more screen
When you wear two apple watches on your wrist anyone with me?
Hi,
Hi,
iwatch 5 battery is very bad, with workout app and cellular call on iwatch 5 not even lasted for 3 hour?!!!😱
Battery down from 100 % to 10 % in just two hours??
What could be problem? Should we return the watch?
Great review but that echo in your room was killing me 🙁
I never had an Apple Watch before, but now I bought this one because it has what I have been waiting for (A.O.D., ECG/EKG, fall detection etc.) I’m very excited about AW 5 as a brand new customer, it’s really amazing.
I just bought one yesterday and it’s damaged the problem is the random zooming I need help please
hmm, so given I use a Galaxy Note 10+, I guess its a no go then, the SOS is what I was interested in.
I’ll get a galaxy watch active 2 instead
Hi, I want to purchase Apple watch S5 but I have I phone 6 😔 it will work with 😔plz plz tell soon
I wish Apple made a Apple Watch where you don’t need a iPhone
Where did u drop it?
It’s a shame you can’t have more watch faces. Would totally get a Tag Heuer Monaco one since that’s a square face watch.
Is it worth buying one if i dont have a apple watch at all? $530 is a lot to throw down for one over here
Even though my Galaxy watch has a compass already, it’s not utilized in a navigation app as seemlessly as this. I’ve had my Galaxy watch since it 1st came out, and I see alot of untapped potential. The Samsung native apps are awesome, but alot of 3rd party apps are a little unpolished and kinda buggy. I love my watch, Note 9, and Galaxy buds, but after an entire decade with Samsung, I’m kinda ready for a change.
Yeah I would like to have the always-on display and the better watch faces, but other than those two features, I’m very happy with my Series 3.
I just bought the Apple Watch 5 44 mom gold and I LOVE IT
I have a series 2, worth upgrading?
Thanks for this review. I learned some things I never knew and I’ve watched a lot of Apple Watch 5 reviews!
What a useless piece of technology. Why do you need an apple watch.…you don’t.
I got my 1st apple watch Nike 5 I love it
An excellent review! Thanks so much
The latest Apple iWatch or Apple Watch Series 5 TV ad is a piece of crap and a fraud and has one huge note of misinformation. It says, “this watch communicates with satellites 14,000 ft above the Earth.” The entire [millennial?] marketing staff that made this commercial should be fired. The watch receives data communications from a GPS satellite, but it is not a SAT-phone and hence cannot communicate to such a satellite. It just goes to show how stupid Apple Kool-Aid drinkers are. Time again every time
I GOT APPLE WATCH OFF TARGET WITHOUT KNOWING IT’S LOCKED THE SELLER I NOT RESPONDING ANYMORE GLAD A FRIEND INTRODUCE ME TO MAX_HACK20 ON IG WHICH I HIRED AND UNLOCKED SUCCESSFULLY
Please give me a smart watch uncle
Size?
