You forgot to implement chapters with time stamps again... 😐👎🏻

[@cockandballer3593]

Max, Apples measurement refers to the case size not the screen size and it seemed you didn’t realize that during your review when you were talking about the screen size difference

[@ManeshBPandu]

Thanks for the review, good points for 5 vs 6 vs 7 series

[@beautifulknowledge9584]

The brightness makes a difference to me!!

[@sipannangian523]

you did not include talk/mention about 3D touch !!! is that intentionally ???

[@EvanMooreZ]

I watched a ton of series 7 video to prepare for the fact that we come from a S2 and S3. I really appreciate how you break down all the features along the way to S7, which is so helpful since we’re getting so much with this upgrade. There’s a lot of great gems I didn’t know about such as the U1 chip and fall detection. I fell off my ladder a few weeks ago and this would have helped me.

[@tippy35075]

The series 4 is still performing flawlessly so apple is going to have to try harder to justify an upgrade

[@JoeKnowsWorst]

or you just don’t upgrade and accept that it’s not for you lol.. people have the right to choose what they want and just like with every phone, there’s always people who have had a phone for several years and are due for an upgrade… no one is forcing anyone to upgrade every year

[@nogal-ogg]

@@JoeKnowsWorst they didn't say people don't have the right to choose what they want

[@tennisinme]

Imo was a huge upgrade for me and similar to how most people bashed the iPhone 13 improvements. scrolling on 120hz has made using my phone way more enjoyable and even typing has an elevated experience. With the watch, the screen is bigger, the on screen keyboard makes it much easier to text from my watch and the higher nits also makes the watch feel more easy to use. To each their own though and everyone’s mileage will vary

[@tippy35075]

@@JoeKnowsWorst A bit of an overreaction don't you think to my purely opinionated comment?

[@tippy35075]

@@tennisinme Yeah I just got a 13 pro Max from having a X, the difference is significant, realistically I could get up to 2 days battery etc. With the watch it's more of a difficult thing to justify updating when it's doing everything right for what I use it for.

[@FoXxx9710]

Same! Only thing is since I once fell with my Apple Watch. Now the battery only lasts me 8hrs. Which doesn’t really help if after work I want to go straight to run.

[@winner888]

I learned more about these watches from you in this video than all of the other videos I saw combined. I bought the series 7, came from the series 4. So far I love it.

[@virtualshift]

As a Series 4 owner, I'm not upgrading again until I see complete redesign. None of the features in the series 5, 6 or 7 are compelling enough for me to upgrade.

[@MsKittyCruz]

I have the AW6. It's my first AW. I'm not upgrading until I see complete redesign too.

[@tomkostolom6559]

7 is kinda big upgrade

[@EvanMooreZ]

We have S2 and S3 - ordered two S7 models both stainless. The fact the screen 50% larger means this upgrade was built for us!

[@semiauto3148]

Looks like he didn’t use the bigger of the new watches. I could see a decent difference in the screen from my aw 4 I’m probably going to upgrade

[@ChowDownDetroit]

Same with me. I have the series 4 and none of these newer watches makes me think i need to upgrade

[@mtnman0430]

Extremely helpful comparison. I have a Series 5, my first Apple Watch. The differences between 5 and 7 appear to be tweaking. The addition of the blood/ox feature doesn't justify the expense of a new watch.

[@Catelynmeow]

I have a series 4, and the format of this video was very helpful! I don’t feel that the difference between the series 4 and series 7 is that much of a difference, so I’m going to wait until series 8.

[@jz7747]

same here. i have the 5 and holdin off. is your battery still holding up?

[@Catelynmeow]

@@jz7747 Yes, my battery is fine; however, I only wear my watch a couple of times each week.

[@jz7747]

The upgrade is night and day from series 2. The early Apple Watches are really too slow.

[@Rayden975]

I've just watched half of the video but I can already say that this is *exactly* the kind of video i was looking for. I was planning to go for the series 5 since its perhaps a bit outdated now and I wanted to save some bucks. But I also wanted to know what I would potentially miss. Instead of watching (at least) 2 seperate videos on series 5 vs series 6, then 6 vs 7 etc this is an all in one review, love it!

[@incognito9875]

I upgraded from S4 to S5 because of always on display, and I still use S5. Always on display was biggest change for last few years IMO.

I have an Apple Watch 3 and no idea about new features of the last few years but I think it'll be time for a new one within the next 12 months.

huge upgrade for me. S1 to S6 and loving it

I upgraded from S1 to S4 I work out with the watch, swim in salty water, use it in sandy beaches it is still going strong. I was hoping for the big redesign but no need to upgrade. I want Apple to add Blood Pressure monitoring at least.

Upgraded form S5 to S7. All the little changes add up for me. Really liking the keyboard, fast charging and pretty much everything looks bigger, such as buttons to press, messages, notifications and also the new black color is pretty cool. Also trading the Watch made it a little easier on my wallet.

Bought the 7 yesterday because I thought the battery on my 4 had deteriorated over the last 3 years. I wore both at the same time and the 7’s battery is draining slightly faster. Returning the 7 and keeping my 4 for another year.

[@Dragonblaster1]

I am a complete tech nut. I have an M1 iPad Pro with all the trimmings, including AirPods Pro, Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard, and I love it (though not the limitations of iPadOS). I'm always buying new tech. But I gave up on the Apple Watch. I have one, but I don't know where it is. My watch is solar-charged (though it will run for six months in total darkness) and has GPS, which both keeps the watch correct to the second, but automatically changes time zone when I travel (which I used to do frequently for work and will start doing again in the not too distant future). It has a titanium body and bracelet, and the watch glass is sapphire. So it looks as good as new. And many people comment on how good it looks. I do not find looking at the screen of my iPhone for fitness stats or new messages a chore, so I really don't see the point of the Apple Watch.
