Do You Really Need a New Apple Watch if You Already Have One?

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-09-20 23:00:45

Reviews for the Apple Watch SE 3, Series 11, and Ultra 3 came out today. I’m in the process of reviewing them. I only have two wrists, and there are three Apple Watches to review—so yeah. Besides, I need to collect more health data before I feel comfortable giving my definitive take. If you’re reading reviews and asking yourself whether or not you should get any of the new models when they become available this Friday, Sept. 19, maybe I can help you make a decision.

Apple Watch Series 11 review: A reliable wearable for when it matters most

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-22 18:00:16

The tenth generation of the Apple Watch came and went without much fanfare last year, and the arrival of the Series 11 is similarly subdued. Not much appears to have changed with Apple’s smartwatch, with no redesign to be seen. Still, that isn’t to say the Apple Watch Series 11 is unimpressive or unexciting. It has new health-related features, improved durability, 5G connectivity, support for a wrist-flick gesture and, for the first time in years, the promise of longer battery life. The most no

Apple Watch Ultra 3, Series 11 battery estimates don’t tell the whole story

This year’s new Apple Watch models come with a variety of upgrades, including battery improvements on the Ultra 3 and Series 11.

Chronic Insomnia Is Bad for the Brain. Like, Really Bad

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-09-27 03:20:07

If you’re a chronic insomniac, you might experience faster declines in memory and thinking skills than your better-sleeping fellows. In other words, your brain might age faster. In a study published Wednesday in the journal Neurology, researchers revealed that people with chronic insomnia, described as having trouble sleeping at least three days a week for three months or more, were significantly more likely to develop mild cognitive impairment or dementia than their healthy counterparts. “Ins

Two ways Apple is (wisely) being inclusive about its latest health features

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-09-29 07:15:15

Apple is sometimes accused of deliberately withholding new features from older devices for no good reason. For example, eyebrows were raised when dual capture video recording was restricted to the iPhone 17 when the same feature has been supported by third-party apps all the way back to the iPhone 11, so is clearly nothing to do with hardware capabilities. When it comes to the latest health features, however, the company is wisely taking a far more inclusive approach … Hypertension alerts The

Here’s one cool addition to yesterday’s information about how the Sleep Score feature works on older Apple Watch models: in fact, it even works with third-party accessories, provided they offer a sleep tracking feature. Here are the details.
