Apple Watch Series 10 Review – Redesign, AI, and Double the Power in 2025

 

Overview

Marking the 10th anniversary of the Apple Watch, the Series 10 introduces a fresh design, AI-powered health tracking, and performance boosts that elevate it beyond just a fitness accessory. Available in 41mm and 45mm sizes, the Series 10 sports a thinner frame, edge-to-edge display, and a new Apple S10 SiP chip designed for AI and energy efficiency. But is the upgrade meaningful if you already own a Series 8 or 9?

Apple's anniversary product, the Watch Series 10, focuses on the most important aspect of a smartwatch. The display! It is central to everything we do on a smartwatch, from checking notifications to quickly glancing time. Apple has fit in the largest and most advanced display ever on an Apple Watch. However, coming from Apple Watch Series 9, it took me some time to notice the differences.

A bigger display that slightly wraps around corners looks better and chunkier than Series 9, for sure. The Series 10 also packs the brightest display we have seen on any Apple Watch Series model yet. Apple claims that the Series 10 is up to 40 percent brighter when viewed at an angle and offers up to 2,000nits brightness. It comes in all-new 42mm and 46mm sizes - slightly larger than what we saw on the Series 9 (41mm and 45mm). The fun fact is that Series 10, despite the bump in case size, is marginally lighter than Series 9. The Aluminium (GPS + Cellular) model we are reviewing weighed 35.3 grams compared to 39 grams on Series 9 (same finish). This is the case across the range.

Conclusion – Is the Series 10 Worth It?

The Apple Watch Series 10 is the biggest leap in design and intelligence we've seen since Series 4. It’s a must-buy if you're coming from a Series 6 or older. The AI-powered health insights, sleeker build, and fluid performance make it feel futuristic. However, if you're already on a Series 9, the upgrade is more about aesthetics than essential features.
