ByBill Toulas-September 11, 2019.053 Apple is now offering either the newly launched “Series 5” Watch or the older “Series 3” from 2017. If you really want to know what a cutting-edge smartwatch looks like you should pick up the newer for $200 more, the older $199 Apple Watch is useful for its respective audience. Here’s a head-to-head analysis of the two to help you decide. The case of the newer model is somewhat thinner the display is larger and has smaller bezels and the digital crown offers haptic feedback. Inside the Apple Watch Series 5 there’s a newer chip that Apple claims to be twice as fast as the one that’s used in the Series 3. From the features viewpoint, the newer model comes with an electrical heart sensor, a compass fall detector and an optical display with next-gen heart rate. .054.055 Whether or not the above is sufficient to justify the extra $200 that depends on it. For eg, if you’re suffering from a heart condition and need an Ecg all the time then picking or upgrading to the Apple Watch Series 5 is a must. However, if you only use the Apple Pay Gps microphone to talk for routine monitoring during calls and the heart sensor, then the Apple Watch Series 3 would be sufficient to cover your needs.
