Almost all the critiques of the Apple Watch Series 6 say the same thing: Yeah, it’s great, however it’s an incremental upgrade, and if you already have a Series 5, skip the upgrade. That’s sage advice, I guess, particularly in the middle of a crushing pandemic that’s ruined the financial system, left thousands and thousands unemployed, and has heaps of people considering fastidiously about their expenses. But I say stuff it! In case you have the money, run out and buy the newest Apple Watch. It’s frickin’ superb! It blows my mind which you could have a mini-iPhone strapped to your wrist that can make cellphone calls, pay for groceries, give directions, monitor your blood and coronary heart, and so, so much more. It’s a technological marvel, my favorite gadget - and it might possibly save my life. Compared to the Series 4-to-5 upgrade last 12 months, the new Series 6 is definitely a much larger update.

Whereas last year’s Series 5 mainly just got an all the time-on screen and a compass, this year’s Series 6 brings an excellent better, brighter screen, new system-on-a-chip, higher Wi-Fi, a bigger battery, faster charging, an extremely-wideband U1 chip, an at all times-on altimeter and - last however not least - a at-home blood monitoring oxygen sensor. That’s fairly a package deal of upgrades. Other staples from previous Apple Watches, like coronary heart-charge monitoring and an ECG, at-home blood monitoring carried over to the newest device. One thing that hasn’t modified is the surface casing. It seems to be identical to Apple Watch 4 and 5, and it remains appropriate with all of your present bands. I’m not complaining
