Aside from writing, fitness is what keeps me going. During off hours, you can catch me at the gym, climbing gym or a fitness class. This time, I had the Apple Watch to keep me company and safe to say, it’s a total game-changer for anyone who loves to work out. Whether you’re bouldering, smashing it in a HiiT class, or just hitting the gym, this watch has everything you need to elevate your fitness game.
Sleek Design That Feels Great
First off, let’s talk about how sleek and lightweight this watch is. It’s 10% slimmer than previous models, so it feels barely there while you’re climbing or working up a sweat.
I had it on me during a HiiT session where I was cycling, squatting, and lifting weights and didn’t feel a thing. It was so comfortable. Plus, with its cool polished aluminium and titanium finishes, you can rock it with any outfit—whether you’re in workout gear or just hanging out post-gym.
Now, for those who regularly do water-based exercises like swimming or diving, the Apple Watch Series 10 can be used to track your stats and environment such as water temperature, water depth and more.
Huge Display for Easy Access
The Series 10 boasts a massive display that’s 30% bigger than older models. This means you can easily check your stats without having to squint or stop your workout.
The screen is super bright, too, so you can read notifications and metrics at a glance—even in bright sunlight during your outdoor activities. With an always-on display that refreshes quickly, you can keep track of your heart rate, calories burned, and more without missing a beat.
Smart Features to Keep You on Track
What sets the Series 10 apart is its performance. It’s powered by the new S10 SiP chip, which means everything runs smoothly. From quick access to Siri to automatic workout detection, this watch makes it easy to focus on your workout instead of fiddling with settings.
Plus, the health monitoring features are next-level. It can even alert you to signs of sleep apnea, which is a big deal for anyone looking to stay on top of their health. With the new Vitals app, I could also easily check my daily health status and note any significant changes. On top of that, I was at a live band concert on a Friday night and was sitting close to the stage, there were constant alerts on my ear health and how to protect and reduce any impacts.
Safety Features for Peace of Mind
Safety is also a huge plus with the Series 10. It has Crash Detection and Fall Detection, so if you happen to take a tumble while bouldering, it can alert emergency services if needed. It’s reassuring to know that your watch has your back during those intense moments.
Plus, the new watchOS 11 comes with cool features like Smart Stack for quick access to your favourite apps based on time, location and more, making it even easier to use.
Fast Charging for Non-Stop Action
Charging is a breeze with the Series 10. It’s now the fastest-charging Apple Watch ever—just 15 minutes on the charger gives you about 8 hours of use.
That means you can easily power up between workouts without worrying about your battery dying on you. Not only that, it sometimes gets tedious when leaving your watch to charge every day but this time round, one full charge gets you 2 or more days of use.
Conclusion: A Must-Have for Fitness Fans
In a nutshell, the Apple Watch Series 10 is a fantastic upgrade for anyone serious about fitness. It’s stylish, packed with features, and perfect for tracking your workouts, monitoring your health, and just looking good while doing it.
Whether you’re at the gym, climbing, or in a HiiT class, this watch has got you covered. It’s not just the most popular watch around; it’s one of the smartest fitness buddies you can have!
