In our Apple Watch 9 review, we said the Apple Watch Series 9 is the best smartwatch yet thanks to significant performance upgrades and the addition of a handy new double-tap gesture. We found the new S9 processor delivers increased performance and a lengthy 18 hours of battery life on a single charge. This more powerful chip also enables the double-tap gesture, which allows you to control the watch by tapping your index finger and thumb together. You can use this for answering calls, responding to texts, pausing music and more.
Meanwhile, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 sports a lot of improvements over its predecessor. In our Apple Watch Ultra 2 review, we said it has an even brighter screen, making it easier to see your stats on the move, even in direct sunlight. The screen on the Ultra 2 goes up to 3,000 nits compared to 2,000 nits on the original model.
Finally, if you're on a budget the Apple Watch SE (2022) is the best Apple Watch value you'll find. In our Apple Watch SE (2022) review, we praised the wearable for a wide variety of reasons. For starters, we love its up-to-date processor which keeps it ticking along nicely, and it also runs WatchOS 9 which is a big upgrade. Plus, the new low-power mode is great for stretching your battery life when you’re going to be away from a charger for an extended period of time.
