In many respects, the Apple Watch Series 5 is nearly identical to the Series 4. But, the Apple Watch Series 5's biggest boast among its predecessors is its always-on display, which finally lets you glance at the watch to check the time without having to make the slightly ridiculous "I'm checking the time, now" gesture with your arm and wrist.
Despite the always-on screen, Apple had managed to keep the Series 5's battery life at a respectable 18 hours.
Other notable features in the Series 5 includes Apple's acclaimed heart-monitoring features, including an ECG app, emergency SOS and fall detection, international emergency calling, haptic feedback in the crown, 50-meter water resistance, and a larger screen with narrower bezels.
The Series 5 would make a great upgrade for Apple Watch fans still wearing their Series 1 or Series 2, and even Series 3 users if they want a little more functionality.
