The Apple Watch Series 11 is a lot like having a personal trainer on your wrist. It provides advanced metrics for all your workouts including running, strength training, yoga, and much more. It also monitors your sleep, provides an ECG at all times, and also has safety features in case of a fall or car crash. It saves you looking at your phone so often too.

Our Apple Watch Series 11 review gave it a very respectable four stars out of five, calling it “a mainline Apple Watch that can go the distance.” While it offers “no major performance gains year over year,” it provides a “bigger battery” and a “more durable display that’s still vibrant and rich.”

The addition of watchOS 26 “makes the experience feel fresh and pairs well with new health features, notably Sleep Score”. Understandably, it’s easily the best smartwatch for iPhone. If you can afford more, there’s always the Apple Watch Ultra 3, but for everyone else, this is the best Apple Watch around.

Its improved battery life of 24 hours still isn’t quite up to the standards of some of the best smartwatches (we’re looking at you, Garmin), but it’s more than good enough for most people.
