Which Apple Watch should you get?

There are a lot of available options to choose from — and you should certainly know which features you need before zeroing onto one:

Apple Watch Ultra: Apple’s newest offering, the Apple Watch Ultra is the largest, most durable and long-lasting smartwatch on its slew today. It not only has the largest battery and longest battery life in the line, but it also has a 49mm sapphire lens.

Apple Watch Series 8: It is the latest smartwatch in the market and comes with extended fitness tracking along with its regular smart features.

Apple Watch SE: If you’re on a budget and still wish to enjoy the quintessential ‘Apple Watch’ experience, the Apple Watch SE is your best bet. There’s no always-on display or advanced health sensors like an ECG or pulse oximeter, but it offers about 90% of the Series 8’s features — and at a comparatively modest price tag.

Apple Watch Series 7: It contains all the most recent hardware innovations, including a SpO2 sensor, an ECG, and a larger, brighter Retina display than before. You can even opt for a cellular-connected version.

Apple Watch Series 6: An older version, but a budget spend, compared to Series 7. However, you may have to compromise on some of the tech giant’s recent additions to its hardware.

Calorie Tracking: Using your age, height, weight, and gender, Apple Watches will keep track of the calories you burn when at rest and while exercising throughout the day.

Heart Rate: Every Apple Watch has an optical sensor that can track your heart rate while you’re active and resting throughout the day. The watch can also alert you if, while inactive, your heart rate is abnormally high or low.
