Apple Watch Series 10 one week later! Worth upgrading?

[@JonAdamsTech]

What do you guys think of the Series 10? Worth the upgrade?

[@justinmeredith1968]

I originally purchased the ultra 2 in black. Too heavy and I missed how thin and light my series watch was. Returned it and went with cellular model of the series 10. I often forget it’s even on my wrist

[@saintjmv04]

Have the Ultra 2... and I am the type of person this watch is designed for. Well, the heavy weight seemed counter-intuitive to my training (biking, running, and weights). I don't need the extra battery life (or brighter screen 2k nits is enough) for a hike I go on one to two times per year and I am not an ultra-marathon runner. So, series 10 with Apple care (accidental) is more than adequate day to day. If Apple didn't offer Apple care, then I would likely hang with the Ultra 2, but not necessary. The series 10 is considerably more comfortable, and dresses up easier without screaming I am trying to be an athlete although I am not lol. To each their own... glad to have options as I have enjoyed my Ultra 2. The series 10 being able to make through the entire day has been a game changer for me... once again, if battery degradation is an issue... Apple Care.

Hi is that 42mm or 46mm series 10 watch

[@migu-loza]

Upgraded from SE (1st Gen) to Series 10 today. It’s an exciting upgrade!

[@JonAdamsTech]

Hahah holy cow that’s massive!

[@migu-loza]

@@JonAdamsTech heck yeah! 46mm

[@tyrishasmith-grady703]

That is a major upgrade

[@migu-loza]

@@tyrishasmith-grady703 indeed it is!

[@reneerenee7564]

I went from SE 1st generation to series 10 also. loving it so far

[@danielneves4935]

Just bought my series 10 today! The only Apple Watch I ever had was the series 1!! This one is soooooo different and cooler! Bought it like 8 hours ago, did ECG and tested other sensors. Battery dropped like 20%… I’m amazed!

[@JonAdamsTech]

haha while that is a big batter drop, what a cool feature to have!

[@jimtipton8888]

Came from the Series 4. Great upgrade! Love the form factor and larger screen. Snappy! Cheers Jon and thanks!

[@JonAdamsTech]

Yeah man I bet that felt like a massive upgrade!

[@stevem4829]

I currently have the SE2. Worth the upgrade or should I hold onto mine a bit longer? Still works great and has 93% battery health

[@JonAdamsTech]

I think it's worth the upgrade but that's just me, do you have the budget for it? If you do then i'd say yes

[@arunmohanmammen736]

@jon You are the only person who reviewed the battery life of of series 10 Apple Watch so accurately. I am also using my Apple Watch series 10 for last one week. I have turned off always ON display and I am getting 2 days of battery life which is awesome. This also helps to keep the battery health in the long run Previously I was using Apple Watch Series 8 and I was using always on display. Within 1.5 years of use, its battery health dropped to 84%

[@JonAdamsTech]

Yeah that’s about the same percentage drop that I saw. Thanks for checking out the video!

[@Davehaha2001]

I love my new Apple Watch series 10 it’s so fast I came from a series 6 and didn’t think I would see a speed increase but the watch is so fast it unlocks with the iPhone instantly and Siri on device is good too but it’s so thin and fast I’m so happy I waited for the series 10 it’s a great design

[@JonAdamsTech]

Yeah they are so great! Glad you're liking them and thanks for checking out the video!

[@TheMacGyver]

How do you unlock the iphone with the watch?

[@That1Trooper]

I upgraded from a Series 3. Genuinely day and night difference.

[@JonAdamsTech]

Holy moly that is a huge upgrade!

[@That1Trooper]

@@JonAdamsTech I love it.

[@robinasoccer]

Im convinced mine is defective by the sound not working loud or clear enough. I’ve tried all the recommended but nothing is coming out better.

[@JonAdamsTech]

Are you still within the return window?

[@hoozleup]

How does it know you've stopped breathing momentarily (for the sleep apnea thing)? i.e. what sensor is it using?

[@JonAdamsTech]

It’s got to be a combination of blood oxygen vs heart rate or something like that

[@pug_63]

I’ve got a Series 7, so won’t be upgrading. In my opinion, if your Apple Watch can’t run the latest WatchOS, it’s probably time to upgrade. If it can, maybe wait another year. Thanks for the content.

[@JonAdamsTech]

Thanks for watching! Yeah I agree with you, if I didn't run this channel I would absolutely wait longer too

[@GenX.Bigfoot]

Such was the case for me with the Gen 1 SE. Plus the batter health was bad.

[@sim0dy]

@@GenX.Bigfootsame for me. I have SE gen1 and I’m upgrading to 10 now. Plus I’m in Europe so we have oxygen sensor enabled here.

[@muhammadluthfi1846]

Good video man! Subscribed!

[@RomanticFlor]

Thanks for the video. Could you please tell me how accurate is the sleeping tracking analysis?

[@JonAdamsTech]

I find it to be as accurate as I need it to be. I've seen studies on the accuracy and it's fine, not 100% but it's definitely passable

[@ATHOMEDADRIGHTNOW]

Thanks for the review. Coming from SE Gen 1, sounds like it’ll be a worthy upgrade.

[@JonAdamsTech]

On yeah 100% will!

[@BOBBY-xd5wd]

Still on my series 4. Thinking of upgrading lol

[@JonAdamsTech]

haha it's insane how long these things last! but you will definitely notice a speed difference

[@BOBBY-xd5wd]

@@JonAdamsTech have you heard the huawei watch d2? With blood pressure. Hopefully apple will integrate blood pressure monitoring that would be the most important thing for me lol

[@mp5596]

Hi Jon, thank you for the review. Could you please tell us what is the size of your AW10 ?

[@JonAdamsTech]

I always go for the 46mm version which is the larger one

[@mp5596]

@@JonAdamsTechinspiring 😊

[@Lyces]

What is your wrist size?

[@JonAdamsTech]

Super manly and big

[@Lyces]

⁠@@JonAdamsTechI was asking because I want to move from 42 to 46, but not fully sure. Thanks for the unhelpful response. Nothing wrong with sharing a measurement.

[@JonAdamsTech]

@@Lyces haha my bad, I've never measured my wrist, i don't have super thick wrists and the 46 is totally fine.

[@saintjmv04]

@@Lyces For perspective, I can just get away with the Ultra 2 with the lug and strap being just to the edge of my wrists. Mine are bony, but on par with medium to large. They measure 165-170mm, which is about 6.5 to 6.75". I also have the series 10 46mm and looks at home on my wrist. Down to around 5.75 to a 6" wrist and up is likely fine for the 46mm series 10 Apple Watch. I hope this helps... very legitimate question that for some odd reason many reviews just don't address.

[@davidszell1803]

should i get this color or the silver aluminium? im not sure bc of scratches or fingerprints being more visible on the jet black, help me out please 🙏🏽

[@JonAdamsTech]

Jet black is beautiful!

[@bigmattus]

My daughter gifted me her series 5 ,,,.so I traded it in for a series 10 in black because she got it in gold and I was jealous

[@JonAdamsTech]

Hahah gangster move!

[@javierruiz901]

I I love the bigger screen and faster charging. Other than that I wish they could have done more in regards to design 😊

[@JonAdamsTech]

Yeah it would be interesting to see a circular design or something that’s just different than the square

[@jmen76]

I would love a circular design or even a case that’s circular. I love the circles but I just bought this and waiting on it to come. I’m hoping the battery life is as decent as said.

[@rickbale]

is this the 42mm?

[@JonAdamsTech]

Yep!

[@LesliePAdams1]

Awesome, I think Dad would love the thinner watch & the health features! Thanks for the info!

[@PastorJeremyCollins]

How long was the hike?

[@JonAdamsTech]

Soooooo long

[@XxShAdYxX08]

i had pre ordered both the slate ti S10 and ultra 2 in black and i ended up keeping the ultra. while i did like the 10 a lot i work outside a lot and the wider viewing angle doesn't really matter much outside but the brighter display of the ultra 2 does. also i have no issue sleeping with the ultra 2 lol

[@JonAdamsTech]

Haha how do you do it!! It’s like having a brick on your wrist while you sleep 🤣

[@djijamiee7687]

I’ve had the titanium version since December last year! And I’m more than happy!

[@johnnacke4134]

Is it worth upgrading from Apple Watch 8 to the 10???

[@JonAdamsTech]

Depends on if you have been feeling like the 8 is slow?

[@ChefTery-Ann-oh8lo]

So good!

[@JonAdamsTech]

Thanks!

[@NeoVdV]

How does one get up to 80% in 30min ? I got my watch 10 a few days ago and did checked a few charging on it and never get a fast charging, not faster then with my previous serie 8. Today checked it again ... started at 34% ...got up to 66% after 30 min charging, and up to 76% after 40min. Far from the advertising of 80% gain in 30min !!!! And those who say you only have to charge the watch during 8min to be sure to get trou the night for sleep tracking. Sorry, that's BS

[@JonAdamsTech]

What is the wattage of the power brick you’re using?

[@ceasarsalad2055]

You have to use an ipad power brick

[@EthiopianInLA]

0:48 "Every Single Night of My Life"? How about when you were a baby 😆

I time traveled. Put one on that precious little arm.

[@JasonRaneses]

You lost me at incredible battery life

[@JonAdamsTech]

Nooooooooo come back

[@Iliasduty]

Battery is 18 hours like all other apple watches. Having screen on all the time will not last 1.5 days as you said. This is not the only point for which I feel like you are off the chart. Please try to do better next time and actually measure/learn. Great quality of cam and song otherwise!

[@JonAdamsTech]

Let me go back and see where I said that. You may be right, I wasn’t working off a script.

[@JonAdamsTech]

Nah I went back and checked. I completely stand by what I said. I charge my watch ever other day on theater mode. That’s what I said in the video and that’s true.

[@Iliasduty]

@@JonAdamsTech Theater mode, you said 2-3 days (3:33) for that I don't know but above I am talking about 4:03 you say probably a day and a half which I have never heard this point of view ever. Anyway, I am just saying this so you can learn from your mistakes and hopefully make better content everyday.

[@JonAdamsTech]

@@Iliasduty Hey i appreciate that! I'm definitely not above being called out. Thanks for caring enough to say something.

[@vedulasrikar]

I just noticed a scratch on Apple Watch 10 jet black and now am happy that I went for silver watch 10 😊. Enjoying my first Apple Watch

[@JonAdamsTech]

On mine? I just checked it and don’t see a scratch! You got them eagle powers brother?

[@vedulasrikar]

⁠@@JonAdamsTechhaha I noticed at 0:36 timestamp very curios to knw if it is a scratch or hairline or something😅

[@vedulasrikar]

@@JonAdamsTechAnd to be honest, Apple Watch series 10 has great battery and the only thing I am missing is more workouts. I really appreciate if you could add a video on how to add new workouts(custom workout like plank)in Apple Watch 10

[@netmanswe]

I cringe every time I see anyone wear a watch on the wrist joint instead of on the lower part (above the joint) of the arm, where a watch should be worn IMHO. But everyone do like they want…

[@JonAdamsTech]

I feel like it cuts off my circulation when I do that because you have to wear the watch tighter, does that not happen to you?

[@netmanswe]

@@JonAdamsTech No, I can’t say it does. When I have a watch on the joint it limits by movement range, and I get accidental button presses, both from old analog watches as well as Apple Watch.

[@LouisLuzuka]

😮

[@JonAdamsTech]

[@sundazenwednesdaze]

Battery life is TERRIBLE . With light use and setting two 15 minute timers from 730am to 1230pm I'm at 23%. My samsung galaxy 3 had better battery life

[@JonAdamsTech]

I haven’t had that experience at all. Sounds like yours has a problem.
