The Apple Watch Series 10 is the latest in Apple's mainstream lineup, with the Series 11 not expected until September. It boasts several upgrades over the Series 9, including a larger OLED Retina display, a new S10 processor that's slimmer (allowing for a thinner watch profile), a slightly larger base model size (42mm vs. 41mm), and minor features like a water depth gauge. If you're upgrading from a Series 9, the improvements might not be compelling enough, but for first-time buyers, the Series 10 is the best choice for most people.

Compared to the Apple Watch SE, the Series 10 offers a larger size (42mm vs. 40mm), a bigger display with Always-On functionality, a 30% more powerful processor, double the storage, advanced fitness tracking and body monitoring sensors, double-tap gesture support, and faster charging. While the SE is more budget-friendly at $199 on Amazon, the Series 10's upgrades justify the extra cost for most users.

Can You Use an Apple Watch with Android Phones?

Technically, it's possible to pair an Apple Watch with an Android phone, but we wouldn't recommend it. Many of the Apple Watch's key features require an iPhone, and while there are workarounds, they're often not worth the hassle. If you're set on getting an Apple Watch, consider getting an iPhone as well. For Android users, there are plenty of excellent Android smartwatches that would be a better match.
