Apple's latest smartwatch is, without a doubt, the best smartwatch… for iPhone users. Because it won't work with an Android phone.

The only improvement that this watch has in addition to its previous version is its constant display. There are some other software and hardware upgrades, but from a user's point of view, this is the one you see most. This helps the watch to sound like a real clock and not like a new sports tracker.

If you’ve been wearing a smartwatch before, then you may have stopped realizing the time it takes for your watch to wake up after you light up your wrist. But as long as you wear a watch with a permanent display, you will see that something is missing.

I really appreciated this for two points in my day - when I was making wood, and when I was walking with my bike trainer. Both of these are situations where I sometimes desperately want to see how long my period is, but I can’t lift my wrist to use the clock.

For all apps except Workout, the clock will still be in sleep mode. The display will not display the app but instead the default on the clock face indicating the time and, depending on the face of the clock face, other sensitive data. To me this was great, but if you were hoping to keep another app open without the clock going to sleep, then this might not be the right watch for you.

The only issue I had with the display was the dimmer, which was not dark enough. It has to adapt automatically, but it always shines brighter than my future (and my bright future, I promise).

So I ended up using cinema mode at night. I think Apple should have installed low light mode like normal wrist watches with light hands. It's easy to see, but it doesn't bother you. It may have led to longer battery life, too.

There is a lot of hype surrounding the LTPO technology used in the Apple Watch 5. Apple says it is the reason for the long battery life of the device. However, a little research shows that it is actually only a growing improvement from the OLED display to the Apple Watch 4.

Well, the new Watch 5 has a lot of new display drivers that make things work better, and a better light sensor than its predecessor, but it's not something that could not be done on the Watch 4. held only 2019 to use it for marketing purposes which is expected to be improved in the previous version.

Among the new LTPO technology and new drivers and sensors, the clock can move from a 60Hz frequency to 1Hz in just 1 second, creating efficient blurring and long battery life. The speed of the whole process won Apple's; some manufacturers find it difficult to make displays that can make such changes faster and more powerful.

When it comes to exterior design, you don’t find a dynamic change in the Apple Watch 5. The models in the Apple Watch series are best known to all who look the same from one generation to the next - looks are part of their product.

The frame is the same curved aluminum. The display is square as before, and the digital crown, which you can use to scroll through the clock menus, has not changed. You can use the small button next to the digital crown to see the apps you recently opened and activate Apple Pay.

Speaking of durability features, the Apple Watch 5 has never experienced any improvement in its capabilities. Heart rate monitoring, accelerometer, and GPS are similar to those on the Apple Watch 4.

Another great elevation compass, which tells you where you are going and makes your height in line with GPS. This is a good feature for travelers, runners, or cyclists, or it can be used sparingly by other people.

One feature to note is the EKG monitoring that came out with Series 4 and still works in Series 5. To find out more, read our review of the Apple Watch 4.

Apart from the fact that there are not many new features in the Apple Watch 5, there is still an amazing watch with all the functionality and the Watch 4. GPS is very accurate as well as a heart rate monitor.

When you swim, the clock will calculate the length and length with accuracy, or the clock may have a problem telling you exactly which strokes you are doing.
