This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Apple Watch Series and Apple has given the Series 10 a new look to mark the occasion. Series 10 features a larger screen and thinner build, a new sleep apnea detection feature and a new finish. ZDNET’s Matthew Miller tested the Watch Series 10 in October and was quite impressed with the latest features.

“After trying the new Jet Black 46mm Apple Watch Series 10, I wouldn’t say it beats the Watch Ultra 2, but the newer model certainly offers compelling features that will likely appeal to most users. Here’s what I liked about the latest Apple Watch and what could be done better next year,” Miller says in his review.
