It\u2019s Apple\u2019s fastest and most durable flagship wearable yet, with a bright, wide-angle OLED display that\u2019s easy to read at a glance. It offers the longest battery life of any Series model to date, allowing you to eke out up to 24 hours (or 38 hours in low-power mode) on a single charge with the base configuration. The LTE version doesn\u2019t drain as quickly either thanks to Apple\u2019s power-efficient 5G modem, and you can charge a dead watch to 80 percent capacity in just 30 minutes.<br \/>On the health and wellness side, it offers a diverse range of features, from FDA-cleared hypertension notifications and sleep scores to ovulation tracking, sleep apnea detection, and fall detection. Beyond that, you get access to <a href=\"\/news\/777319\/apple-watchos-26-available-update-download\">watchOS 26 features like<\/a> Workout Buddy, which offers real-time coaching, as well as wrist flick and double tap gestures so you can control the watch without touching the screen. Rounding things out, you also get Apple\u2019s usual set of smart features, including Apple Pay, Siri, and access to music directly from your wrist.<br \/><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Sign up to get the best deals on products we\u2019ve found and tested sent to your inbox.<\/span><br \/>Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<br \/><a class=\"fv263x5\" href=\"\/authors\/sheena-vasani\">See All by <!-- -->Sheena Vasani<\/a><br \/>Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<br \/><a class=\"fv263x5\" href=\"\/apple\">See All <!-- -->Apple<\/a><br \/>Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<br \/><a class=\"fv263x5\" href=\"\/good-deals\">See All <!-- -->Deals<\/a><br \/>Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<br \/><a class=\"fv263x5\" href=\"\/gadgets\">See All <!-- -->Gadgets<\/a><br \/>Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<br \/><a class=\"fv263x5\" href=\"\/smartwatch\">See All <!-- -->Smartwatch<\/a><br \/>Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<br \/><a class=\"fv263x5\" href=\"\/tech\">See All <!-- -->Tech<\/a><br \/>Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<br \/><a class=\"fv263x5\" href=\"\/shopping\">See All <!-- -->Verge Shopping<\/a><br \/>Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<br \/><a class=\"fv263x5\" href=\"\/wearables\">See All <!-- -->Wearable<\/a><br \/><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Sign up to get the best deals on products we\u2019ve found and tested sent to your inbox.<\/span><br \/>This is the title for the native ad<br \/>This is the title for the native ad<br \/>\u00a9 <!-- -->2026<!-- --> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.voxmedia.com\">Vox Media<\/a>, LLC.
