It's unsurprising that the Series 6 is the best Apple Watch to date and remains the best smartwatch you can buy - if you have an iPhone that is.
This model has been improved namely with an always-on altimeter and blood oxygen monitoring alongside improvements to the always-on display. The price varies wildly depending on how luxurious you want to go with the combination of material and straps, but the good thing is that the watch itself is still the same at the base price.
The Apple Watch SE is also a viable alternative for those that aren't too fussed about features like ECG and blood oxygen monitoring and want to save a bit of money on an Apple Watch.
The Galaxy Watch 3 is among the best smartwatches available at the moment, topped only by the Apple Watch Series 6. The thinner, lighter body and larger display of the Galaxy Watch 3 make for a premium look, and the rotating bezel continues to outshine the competition as the most intuitive way to interact with a smartwatch.
The Tizen OS 5.5 user experience is not quite as extensive when it comes to fitness as dedicated trackers, but it still offers an impressive feature set, with automatic tracking for seven types of exercise, along with the ability to take VO2 Max, ECG and SpO2 readings (in countries where it has certification).
It’s one of the best all-round smartwatches you’ll find on Android, and there’s a lot for iOS users to like too.
