The Apple Watch Series 5 is visually unchanged compared to the Series 4. It comes in either a 44mm case size or a slightly smaller 40mm size for those who have slimmer wrists. The case is still a svelte 10.7mm, and the 44mm model — which I’m wearing in the pictures — weighs only 36 grams. It’s barely noticeable on your wrist, never gets caught unde...
Here’s the big change for the Series 5 over the Series 4— it has an always-on display, which means it always shows the time.

The Apple Watch Series 5 is superb. No other smartwatch comes close to offering the same level of fitness tracking, convenience, performance, or wearability. Apple Watch Series 4owners don’t really need to upgrade, but those who didn’t buy the last Apple Watch should jump on this one.
