How's it holding up so far? I was thinking of getting the Series 5 but after watching these videos, it made me think twice. I'm now looking to get a Series 3 instead.
Kaiser Allen It’s working fine it tells the time.🤣😂😂 🤷🏽♂️ With the pandemic going on now, due to the coronavirus am sure the 5 series. Price will go down low in a few months. But at this time buying a watch, is not really important. 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️😩
Thank you! I guess I'll save myself $100 and get the Series 3 with LTE. I'll just replace it with a newer model when Apple stops supporting it or when it no longer performs the functions I need.
@@KaiserAllen you could look on ebay and find a series 4 44mm for about 250 since a new series 3 from apple would cost about 305 total thats what i did found a great condition series 4 with lte on ebay for 240
Am I the only one that prefer not to have the display always on? What so hard to just flick your wrist to see the time? Don't you have to do that any ways on any watch you wear?
imagine being in a meeting or in a social situation where it would be rude to do the gesture to watch the time and instead you just glance at it and see the time. Or if you're execercising or you have your hands busy carrying something and you're not able to do the full gesture to wake the screen up...
It's not really always on. The watch face goes into a minimalist face which gives you just the time. The power usage from displays is from turning pixels on. So if you turn on a very small amount it doesn't drain the battery as much. They also apparently slow down the refresh rate to further save the battery.
Mario Sabljakovic if you’re ever in that situation, you’re most likely better off not knowing the time. It helps you stay in that moment and remain focused.
Yeah you two are right but I never had a Apple Watch so this is like a new thing to me I had a experience with the series 4 38mm i thing it was and it was small but good so anyway I never had a Apple Watch so i am going to get the series 5 what do you thing should I get the 3 or the 5?
I’ll keep my 3. I get so tired of apple adding one more thing they could have added on the last generation and calling it a new product. The 5 is just a 4 with new materials for cases.
Andre Da Costa not for me even though i got it less than two weeks ago, (and this is my first apple watch) it doesn’t even offer infograph, california, ect faces on 42mm so i guess perhaps i’ll just wait for the price to go down and i’ll buy the series 5.
Yes, I do think the series 5 is worth the extra $200 with the beautiful always on display, fast processor, upgraded internals, and the bigger display with the less chunky bezels. But, if you don't want to spend that much on a watch, the series 3 is the best option out there for that price point. Especially for iPhone users.
I think I may go with the series 3 for the price, although the smaller bezels on the 5 look stunning. Kind of torn, but I think I’ll be happy either way in the long run. Thanks for the great video!
@@kesleyk6731 I actually went half way and got a used series 4 on amazon!! i've got 30 days to return it so I have to decide if it was worth the $320. so far I like it a lot!
Gautam S isn’t that the whole point of the watch though? Lol but I get what you mean. There’s even an option to turn the always on display off on the series 5 so it’s pretty dumb if you’re planning to have it off might as well stick with the 3 or even 4
Not interested in the alway's on time display. I like my 4 and bought my daughter the 3 which she loves. So the 5 is nice but doesn't really do anything different than my 4. Looks great ... all depends on what you want it to.
0:15 they’re pretty much identical/ side by side, it’s impossible tell the difference 0:57 it’s only a few mm difference but it’s VERY noticeable in size ........ okay
In the first instance he is talking about the body and the overall form factor. In the second instance he is referring to looking at the display once it is lit up. When the screens are off you can barely tell the difference but once they are on it's very noticeably different.
Very good review, only the important information, well done! I have a Series 3 and I’m very happy with it. I’ll upgrade until next year when the Series 6 arrive.
Some other benefits to the AW5 is more storage capacity, Haptic Touch on the crown, built in compass, better Bluetooth, and updated heart rate sensor and accelerometer. But ya AW3 is great value for everything. I’m going with the 5 Nike version. Probably should have just picked up a AW4 on Black Friday but been want Apple Watch for a long time!
I currently have series 3 and also Galaxy Watch, both LTE. Last fall diagnosed with a spinal condition, and now use a cane daily. I’ve been thinking about the series 5 only because I’ve fallen twice already with no one around to help me.
Thank god for a short video comparing the two geez 30 min video com pairing the two like there’s a huge difference. There’s only 5 min worth of difference between the two.
I have never owned an Apple Watch. I just got my iPhone 11 pro max as an upgrade to the 6s plus. Seeing that I now have the latest and greatest I want to keep the trend going and really want the watch 5. But I keep looking for videos such as this to try and convince me to just settle for the 3 simply because of the price and because ultimately There will be another new watch in about a year from now...
I still have the series 1! I just haven't found a reason to upgrade. Now, I am strongly considering purchasing the 5 for my mother who's a senior and because she was planning on getting one of those "I've fallen and can't get up" things and pay a crazy amount monthly I suggested the Apple and she seems quite receptive to it.
The Series5 would be ideal for active seniors wanting health monitoring. My Ser3 is fine for now. Will there be the day when iWatch has too many features on a wrist?
Hahaha, you read my mind. I came to the video because I’m interested in buying one for my dad, since he’s fixated on data monitoring and loves the stats for walking that his iPhone gives. I was hoping I could save a few hundred and go with the 3, but it looks like I might have to dish out the money for the 5.
Ilyes Cheddadi actually the battery life still stays around 17 hours as when the display “stays on” it kicks the refresh rate of the screen to 1. I recently upgraded my series 3 for the 5 and I think it was an improvement on size and just general use and functionality (more watch faces and complications made it nice too).
@@ContusionsX This is incorrect. The Series 5 takes a considerable hit to battery life when using the always on display verses not using the always on display.
I love my series 3 watch, but recently lost it (ouch!). Believe I will replace with another series 3 though. Its a great watch. Thanks for the comparison.
First, you tell us how one can hardly tell the difference between the Series 3 screen size and the series 5 then you start telling us why the series 5 screen size is better. AND you didn't even address the big question everyone has, how does the battery life of the always-on series 5 compare to the 3 and 4?
Have the series 3 and it’s great. If you’re buying think two years from now. Which would you like to have and will it keep up. I rarely recommend the lower model. Having said this the 3 remains a great watch for me after a year of ownership and I’m challenged to upgrade to the 5. I’ll likely upgrade to the “6” but by buying new tech I’ve had two great years of ownership. Just my humble opinion.
I rebooted my Apple 3 today (bought it back in June 2017) not wearing it for almost a year....I had to re-pair it and start over as if I never had one before; works just fine🇮🇳😀🇮🇳😀
Thank you so much, Mike. This is just the comparison I was searching for. I just want a larger watch face so I think I'll check it out at the Apple Store.
I recently bought an apple watch 3 series. I'm not about to buy the series 5. I thought 199 was a good price. It was an upgrade from series 1. I don't use all of its features but I like it
Definitely considering an Apple Watch as my self Christmas gift and I think I narrowed it down the series 3 has almost all the same features minus the always on display and two extra heart sensors, I also heard the series 3 has a longer battery life storage honestly doesn’t matter what am I gotta do with 32 gigs on my wrist
I purchased both and wore them for 3 weeks. Then returned the Series 3. The Series 5, if you haven't tested it, is too expensive but once you wear it you realize why the "best things in life are not free".
I agree with you, if you want always on display get the 5, if not the 3 is good. screen size isn't to noticeable really, and always on kills battery life quicker :-)
The only reason the series 3 is the next option is because the series 4 is too close in specs. For the first time I am not upgrading my watch. Always on screen isn’t enough.
I thin I will take the 3 because it is my first one and also I ve seen some rumors that the next ones could have Blood Sugar Monitoring on Board; what would be for me, the One Thing that I will be ready to spend 500+$ just to get that !
Valerie Von Skullz with the gps only model, it will use your phone (if in range) to contact emergency services. If you normally have your phone with you or at least at a moderate vicinity, I’d say the series 5 gps is well worth it for your case!
Valerie Von Skullz yeah no problem! If you need anymore information just let me know. I actually work at Apple retail and there’s a lot of different ways you can customize any of our products to assist with disabilities.

Pattpourri Sessions with the cellular models, it has an eSim inside the watch so you would just have to set it up on your phone and add it to your plan.
I have series 2 watch, now the series 6 is here the series 5 will be cheaper so i will get a series 5 & keep that for years. The 44mm full screen is big difference along with the always on display & brighter screen.
in my personal opinion the savings i get on the series 3 is much more worth it than the additional features i'm lacking with series 5. if i were to compare the series 1 and series 3 on the other hand, then definitely yes i would go with the upgrade because of the performance drop i'm getting with the series 1. Series 3 works just great, everything is smooth. cheapest smart watch i can get that allows me to use apple pay, answer calls, read notifications, respond to messages, respond to MFA all without even needing to use my iPhone.
Thanks for a good and thorough review. I am still using the original 2015 watch, with max OS of 4 for this model. Happy with it except the battery is a little weaker now. If the battery goes, I will go with the series 3 aluminum case to save money. Currently mine is stainless steel at a substantial expense in 2015. Looks nicer, but will go cheaper when the time comes.
Nice video but calling the emergency on the serie 5 only works if you get the more expensive Cellular model if I get it right. And apple pay works on both GPS and cellular models if I also understood that right.
Has anyone else with a series 3 or 4 with watchOS 6 find that there is a delay with “tap to wake” ? It sometimes take 3-5 seconds when you tap on the screen to wake it up. Think watchOS 6 is very buggy.
@@scottconnor22 Even with the new 6.0.1 update, I still have a delay sometimes with tap to wake. I noticed one day when I forgot to turn back on the heart rate monitor, I noticed tap to wake was consistent.. but when I turned on the heart rate monitor back on, that's when the delay started to happen again. So maybe that's where the bug is?
I just bought my husband the series 3 42 mm screen. Being that this is his first Apple Watch and I’m not sure how much he’ll use it, I figured this will be a great starter watch. Plus there’s always the option to upgrade.
Series 3 prices now are absolutely unbeatable and Apple doesn't make products that don't work almost flawlessly, the Series 5 is for people that want to say they got the newest watch unless they actually want to use the few features that aren't available on the Series 3.
i was having a hard time choosing between the two, but i went with the series 3. not much of an upgrade from my series 0, but that poor watch had such little battery life and it was slow as heck
The series 5 is good and has more watch faces then the series 4 but there’s been a lot of complaints about battery life on series 5, I have a 42mm series 3 with LTE and does well for me, I’d probably get the series 4 LTE in 44mm as lots of good reviews
I'm still on a series 2, and no issues with it at all, but I'm thinking of going to the 5 for the always on display. I realize this may be frivolous, but I'm still on 2!
I upgraded from the series 3, the series 3 is great and does everything and more for your everyday lifestyle to your workout routine. however if you are upgrading from a series 2 or 1 I would go all out. coming from a series 3 upgrading to a series 5 there are a lot of noticeable differences, the series 5 feels less bulkier and has what feels like a lot more screen real estate which is a win win. A top tip though to reduce cost however is to upgrade before it has even come out yet, I know it sounds odd. I knew of the series 4 but was waiting for the announcement of the series 5 as I heard about ECG and always on, at the time the series 3 was selling for £279 at just a year old. I decided to sell my series 3 early in the hopes to save a little bit more money when the new one came out. I sold the series 3 for £190 on eBay about a month before the announcement of the series 5 meaning I could get a bigger discount. roll on a month and apple had dropped the price of a new one to £199 and doing some sifting on eBay people were struggling to sell them for £120. I do this with my iPhones too and it works.
Has anyone bought the series 3 and wish they went with the 5? Or vice versa? Always on display doesn’t phase me. I have a fitbit versa 2 but Im finding it pretty boring. I have an iphone so I was thinking of making the switch to Apple Watch.
@@the_real_mrd no cause the iphone 5 has an 32 bits processor, when the series 5 has an 64, but the apple watch serie 5 is just the beginning of the apple watch, a really good start but the beginning This is why I compare the 5/5s/6 I scale it by power
I absolutely loved my series 3 watch until the battery died. Now I can’t decide what to do. Meaning should I replace it or buy another. The battery lasted exactly 2 years. What is that $150 a year. Way too much.
im upgrading from my Apple series 3 42mm sliver to the Apple Watch series 5 44mm space grey nike edition I can't wait upgrade to the series 5 from my series 3
Can someone answer my question is series 3 good ? and can you give me some good qualities I looking to buy one but I’m confused if I want series 5 or 3 because all these comments say that series 3 is better
Personal opinion, I love my series 3 and would still buy it today. It's half the price of the series 5 and in my mind the only feature I'm really missing out on is an always on display. A lot of the changes from S3 to S4 to S5 are more niche ones like fall detection (I'm 30 not 60), a compass (use your phone or learn how to do it from a watch face or nature!), decibel meter (phone app...)
So I heard something about the Siri function on the Watch 3 is different, that it isn't routed back through your phone like it is in Watch 5. Does that mean if you have to have your phone close by to use Siri?
Hi ! Thanks for your video ! In France the price are a little bit more expensive.. I choose in « black friday » the serie 3. It’s my first Apple Watch and i think for the beging it’s a good watch.
I just got myself the 42mm series 3, and this is my first ever Apple Watch ⌚️ I like it. 👍🏽👍🏽

Just got an LTE series 3 Space Black Stainless steel for 169 USD on ebay, good buy?
I spent $400 on my series 3 because I bought it at launch in Europe (where by some reason apple products are very expensive)
Yea but there used.
I have series 2 watch, now the series 6 is here the series 5 will be cheaper so i will get a series 5 & keep that for years. The 44mm full screen is big difference along with the always on display & brighter screen.
Have they overcome only one playlist yet. I use my watch in the gym but it only supports one playlist, I want multiple playlists.
in my personal opinion the savings i get on the series 3 is much more worth it than the additional features i'm lacking with series 5. if i were to compare the series 1 and series 3 on the other hand, then definitely yes i would go with the upgrade because of the performance drop i'm getting with the series 1.
Series 3 works just great, everything is smooth. cheapest smart watch i can get that allows me to use apple pay, answer calls, read notifications, respond to messages, respond to MFA all without even needing to use my iPhone.
Yea, that always on display sold me. I’m going with the 5.
Thanks for a good and thorough review. I am still using the original 2015 watch, with max OS of 4 for this model. Happy with it except the battery is a little weaker now. If the battery goes, I will go with the series 3 aluminum case to save money. Currently mine is stainless steel at a substantial expense in 2015. Looks nicer, but will go cheaper when the time comes.
Nice video but calling the emergency on the serie 5 only works if you get the more expensive Cellular model if I get it right. And apple pay works on both GPS and cellular models if I also understood that right.
I'm still using 1 lol
YONG CHEN SENG LOL you’re a hoot!!!!!!!
YONG CHEN SENG I used my 1 til November 2019 bc it broke & I upgraded to the 3
That’s the spirit!!! Way to go! 👍🏻
Has anyone else with a series 3 or 4 with watchOS 6 find that there is a delay with “tap to wake” ? It sometimes take 3-5 seconds when you tap on the screen to wake it up. Think watchOS 6 is very buggy.
Jozef Del Mundo there is a new update 6.0.1 maybe that will fix your problem
@@scottconnor22 Even with the new 6.0.1 update, I still have a delay sometimes with tap to wake. I noticed one day when I forgot to turn back on the heart rate monitor, I noticed tap to wake was consistent.. but when I turned on the heart rate monitor back on, that's when the delay started to happen again. So maybe that's where the bug is?
For what I use a smart watch for I definitely don’t need to spend extra I’m better of keeping that in my pocket so I’m going with the 3
He sounds like ray Romano
I just bought my husband the series 3 42 mm screen. Being that this is his first Apple Watch and I’m not sure how much he’ll use it, I figured this will be a great starter watch. Plus there’s always the option to upgrade.
I’m looking to get my first Apple Watch and I’m also thinking of getting the series 3 42mm to save some cash lol
I use ears to know if the sound is loud
Series 3 prices now are absolutely unbeatable and Apple doesn't make products that don't work almost flawlessly, the Series 5 is for people that want to say they got the newest watch unless they actually want to use the few features that aren't available on the Series 3.
Wish you’d show pictures
i was having a hard time choosing between the two, but i went with the series 3. not much of an upgrade from my series 0, but that poor watch had such little battery life and it was slow as heck
The series 5 is good and has more watch faces then the series 4 but there’s been a lot of complaints about battery life on series 5, I have a 42mm series 3 with LTE and does well for me, I’d probably get the series 4 LTE in 44mm as lots of good reviews
I'm still on a series 2, and no issues with it at all, but I'm thinking of going to the 5 for the always on display. I realize this may be frivolous, but I'm still on 2!
One simple question, is there any noticable difference in the look of series 3&5 if it display is off ? Please help me
Asif P the screen shape and size are different
Thank you, this video was exactly what I needed to decide between the two.
I upgraded from the series 3, the series 3 is great and does everything and more for your everyday lifestyle to your workout routine. however if you are upgrading from a series 2 or 1 I would go all out. coming from a series 3 upgrading to a series 5 there are a lot of noticeable differences, the series 5 feels less bulkier and has what feels like a lot more screen real estate which is a win win. A top tip though to reduce cost however is to upgrade before it has even come out yet, I know it sounds odd. I knew of the series 4 but was waiting for the announcement of the series 5 as I heard about ECG and always on, at the time the series 3 was selling for £279 at just a year old. I decided to sell my series 3 early in the hopes to save a little bit more money when the new one came out. I sold the series 3 for £190 on eBay about a month before the announcement of the series 5 meaning I could get a bigger discount. roll on a month and apple had dropped the price of a new one to £199 and doing some sifting on eBay people were struggling to sell them for £120. I do this with my iPhones too and it works.
Has anyone bought the series 3 and wish they went with the 5? Or vice versa? Always on display doesn’t phase me. I have a fitbit versa 2 but Im finding it pretty boring. I have an iphone so I was thinking of making the switch to Apple Watch.
You forgot to mention in the beginning that series 5 also comes in stainless steel.
My first Apple Watch is the series 5 and I love it
Go for series 4
I just got
My first ever .. Apple Watch Series 5
Great review , i'm gonna stay with series 3
Tried Fitbit Versa 2. It's completely garbage as a smartwatch but probably great fitness watch. Selling it so I can get the Apple watch tho.
It’s like comparing an iPhone 5 with on iPhone 5s or 6
More like comparing a 6s to a 7.
@@the_real_mrd no cause the iphone 5 has an 32 bits processor, when the series 5 has an 64, but the apple watch serie 5 is just the beginning of the apple watch, a really good start but the beginning
This is why I compare the 5/5s/6
I scale it by power
Thanks for your help staright to the point and elaborateing evrything . 👍🏼
Great Video Thanks! Love your presentation :)
How can we be sure that he has the series 5 and not the series 4
Is there a big difference in the battery life between the two?
I absolutely loved my series 3 watch until the battery died. Now I can’t decide what to do. Meaning should I replace it or buy another. The battery lasted exactly 2 years. What is that $150 a year. Way too much.
Apple watch series 5 really do a EGC? I think that is necessary a equipment more sophisticated to be accurate.
im upgrading from my Apple series 3 42mm sliver to the Apple Watch series 5 44mm space grey nike edition I can't wait upgrade to the series 5 from my series 3
Can someone answer my question is series 3 good ? and can you give me some good qualities I looking to buy one but I’m confused if I want series 5 or 3 because all these comments say that series 3 is better
Personal opinion, I love my series 3 and would still buy it today. It's half the price of the series 5 and in my mind the only feature I'm really missing out on is an always on display.
A lot of the changes from S3 to S4 to S5 are more niche ones like fall detection (I'm 30 not 60), a compass (use your phone or learn how to do it from a watch face or nature!), decibel meter (phone app...)
Thinking of getting the apple series 3...but wondering how it compares to the garmin options?
Will get this when Apple coming up with series 10.
2:50 The closed caption says "psycho tracking for women" XD
tyrgoossens lol
I heard it exactly how the captions did
I want to get the series 5 but I have a iPhone 6 so it won’t work together
Thanks, great synopsis and helped us decide:-)
This was very helpful. Thank you!
So I heard something about the Siri function on the Watch 3 is different, that it isn't routed back through your phone like it is in Watch 5. Does that mean if you have to have your phone close by to use Siri?
5 also has a built in compass
Hi ! Thanks for your video !
In France the price are a little bit more expensive..
I choose in « black friday » the serie 3.
It’s my first Apple Watch and i think for the beging it’s a good watch.
