we are at Gadget Lab (and crowd of people around the world) Agree: If you have an iPhone, the Apple Watch is the best wearable. The only question is, which version do you get? Last year, Apple released its latest version, the Series 7. The company is still selling the Series SE and aging Series 3, but the beloved Series 5 and Series 6 are already on the market. (You might still find them on sale, though.) All of these watches look fairly similar and feature rotational stabilization. Here, we’ll discuss which one is best for you and whether the older model is worth the money.
Be sure to check out our other buying guides, especially our best iPads, best smartwatches, and best iPhones guides.
Update June 2022: We removed Series 3 and added information about a possibly upcoming watch.
