First impression of the Apple Watch Series 10
As soon as I take the Apple Watch 10 from the box, I notice right away that this new model is a bit larger and thinner than the Series 9. The screen goes farther to the edges of the watch case. I think this looks good. It makes the Watch looks a bit fancier. The sensors on the back of the Watch 10 are thinner. That way, the watch fits better on my wrist than the previous models.
Fast charging is actually fast
Unfortunately, Apple didn't improve the battery of the Apple Watch Series 10. This means I still have to charge my Apple Watch every day. Luckily, fast charging is improved. With the included charging cable, I can charge my Apple Watch 10 for 70% in half an hour. I think that's a good improvement. The Apple Watch 9 charges for 50% in that time. I can charge it while I shower or eat breakfast, for example. That way, it easily lasts an entire day or night.
Vitals app and Training Load
In the new Vitals app on my Apple Watch 10, I can see how my body is doing at a glance. The app combines 5 types of data: my heart rate, breathing, temperature, saturation, and sleep duration. That's useful, because I don't have to figure out what all the information means. I wore the Apple Watch for 7 nights in a row while I slept. I then received information in the Vitals app. That way, I know if I slept too little and need to calm down. Or if I'm very well-rested and can handle anything!
Conclusion
In my opinion, the Apple Watch Series 10 is a pretty and stylish smartwatch. The large and bright screen gives the Apple Watch 10 a luxurious appearance. I can also read my information even more easily. Fast charging is a great addition, because I barely notice the short battery life. Thanks to the Vital app, I learn more about my health without figuring out the important data. Do you have an old Apple Watch 8 or older? The Apple Watch 10 is a good replacement.
