Which Apple Watch should I buy?
It can be surprisingly complicated to buy an Apple Watch, due to the variations of models, sizes and the differences in materials and functionalities.
To start with, if you want a cheap Apple Watch, the Apple Watch SE 3 is the best one to get. It’s new, so it’ll be supported with regular software updates for a long time to come, does almost everything the others do, and is a lot cheaper.
If you want the biggest and best with the longest battery life (for example, if you work out a lot or frequently take overnight trips without a charger to hand) get the Apple Watch Ultra 3 or Apple Watch Ultra 2. The 3 has a battery life that lasts a bit longer (42 hours compared to 36 and a few other useful tools like emergency satellite messaging, which is handy if you get lost in the wild, but the 2 will probably do for most.
If you want something in between, an Apple Watch with bigger screen and better materials than the SE 3, but you don’t want to overpay, get the Apple Watch Series 11 or Series 10.
