Apple Watch Series 10 packs big upgrades

Apple gave its smartwatch lineup a big design overhaul with the Series 10 launch last year. It is the company’s slimmest wearable yet, with a 10% thinner chassis, and yet it packs an even bigger display. The new jet black aluminum finish is polished using silicon nanoparticles. After this, Apple uses a 30-step anodization process to bond organic dye to the housing.

The new design also includes usability upgrades. Apple uses a new metal back plate on the rear, integrating the antenna into the housing. It also enables faster charging, reducing the time needed for a full charge. As if that’s not enough, the Apple Watch Series 10 is water-resistant up to 6 meters. Plus, it can measure the water temperature via the Depth app, previously available only on the much more expensive Apple Watch Ultra.

Apart from being bigger, the new OLED panel is up to 40% brighter when viewed from an angle. It even has a 1Hz refresh rate, helping save power while updating the always-on display. And, as noted in our Apple Watch Series 10 review, the smartwatch is blazingly fast thanks to Apple’s S10 chip.

Despite its slimmer and beautiful design, the Apple Watch Series 10 offers an “all-day” 18-hour battery life. Apple freed up internal space by re-engineering the speaker and reducing its size by 30%.

Save up to $69 on the Apple Watch Series 10

The Apple Watch Series 10 is the best wearable you can buy for your iPhone. But it comes at a cost, with the 42mm model retailing for $399. The 46mm variant costs an extra $30, starting $429. Amazon’s latest deal makes the smartwatch a lot more affordable, though, dropping the price back to Black Friday/Cyber Monday lows.

Right now, you can save $70 on either model. You can get the 42mm Apple Watch Series 10 for $329 or the 46mm model for $359.99.
