The Apple Watch Series 11 is a powerful smartwatch. As the latest iteration of the most popular smartwatch in the world, you might even say it's the smartwatch, and it comes with a boosted battery, hands-free gesture controls, loads of third-party app compatibility, and accurate health metrics beyond fitness (such as the ability to detect potential hypertension or sleep apnea).

I really liked wearing this watch. The slim profile and sumptuous screen looked great on the wrist, especially the new Liquid Glass watch faces. Apple Watches might not last as long as Garmins or other watches when it comes to battery life, but they're such powerful tools with seamless compatibility to your iPhone that it doesn't really matter.
