This is my first apple watch that I have bought. before I had my family members old series 2. This video was extremely useful and helpful. This is my first time discovering this channel and I have subscribed and liked. Keep up the great content!
18 hour battery life is just ridiculously bad. It was borderline acceptable in the beginning, 1st or 2nd gen but since then everybody else improved massively. It should easily do 4-5 days on a single charge.
My Ultra 2 last 3-5 days but I'm sort of an expert in using watches. I've been told that I'm probably the top in the world at getting more then 18hrs out of the new apple watches.
IMHuO, 18 hours is just unacceptable. If I go camping over a weekend, I don't want to have to even *think* about needing to bring extra gear just to charge my watch 🥴🥴🥴🥴 Perhaps a 'workout' should be added: Sprint-duration and heart-rate while being chased by a bear/hiIIbiIIies 😁😁😁😁
This one is my first Apple Watch. I can't get out much at the moment but even still there are little things you don't think of that turn out to be MAJOR conveniences. Such as being able to just left my wrist to read messages, and then asking Siri to send a response. I can't remember whether the double tap was supposed to be available from next month, though I'm assuming so as I can't get it to trigger.
This is one of my favorite channels recently, and it's so cute that Rain always gets excited about the flashlight features. Personally I prefer to live in the danger and accidentally stub my toes here and there while walking in the dark. I'm too lazy to turn on a flashlight on my way to the bathroom at 3am.
I’m moving from a Watch 3 to a 9, so I’m looking for how much of an upgrade this will be. I don’t think Apple expects you to upgrade every year, but maybe every 3-4 years. My 3 is still running great with good battery life. So this jump is pretty big for me.
they literaly expect ppl to upgrade every year, thats the reason they make so bad batteries to their watches and phones, this watch says it has "even 18h run time" garmin watches has 8 to 18 days :D
I genuinly hope that the S9-SiP is gonna help keep the watch "healthy" long term, my Series 4 degraded horribly both in terms of battery and general UX performance
I’m still on a Series 2 (yes I know that’s probably unbelievable to some) and think I might finally have to upgrade this year. The Digital Crown no longer presses in and it’s just slow as heck. For someone like me, this is a massive upgrade (though if I had a series 7 or 8, don’t think I’d bother upgrading).
Apple replaced my series 5 when battery was dying for $75 with no Apple Care. I’d go that route and wait for Watch X but Watch OS 10 was killing my replacement’s battery. I didn’t wait for an update to fix that but I bet the last one did. I got the series 9 last week. Love it.
Your time in bed metric might be incorrect because Apple base it on your sleep schedule. If your sleep schedule is set to start at 8pm and you get into bed at 10pm I think it’ll include those two hours as time in bed regardless of what you were actually doing. If you turn off sleep schedule and manually turn on and off the sleep focus mode you’ll get something closer to the true time in bed
any chance we could a more in-depth video of you creating your workouts, thing I find the hardest with the standard apple workout app is its a all or nothing type thing for an exercise...
Hi DC, thank you as always for a very well made informative video. I have been a long term garmin user and currently use the 965 for tracking all my activities such as - strength training, yoga, running, cycling. Along with my recovery metrics such as sleep, body battery, HRV, training readiness. These recovery metrics i beleive are very important. From my understanding the Apple watch doesnt have these metrics, even though its heart rate tracking is superior to that of Garmin. Would you say having the Garmin with slightly less accurate heart rate tracking but better metrics is a good trade off ? is it possible to get recovery metrics on the apple watches? thank you.
Thanks - I don't currently have an apple watch and I was wondering what to get. I'm looking at the 9 but would an 8 be just as good? What one or two features of the 9 make it worth getting? I enjoyed the video, especially the gps section
In recent versions of WatchOS, when the sleep focus is enabled to track sleep..they have stopped taking RHR readings. Do you know if this logic has been changed in WatchOS 10 ?
Quick Actions works well for me on the Apple Watch Ultra 1 and it is very similar to the Double Tap feature. Granted I'm sure that it's more reliable on the new watches so I understand why Apple hasn't pushed it to the older watches but I can dissmiss notifications, stop alarms etc by double tapping my fingers using Quick Actions and it works maybe 80-90% of the time. Good enough for me. I think maybe the Ultra 4 will be when I upgrade.
What I don’t understand about the Apple Watches. I’ve had a series 5 for a while. If I need to charge it once a day… usually when I go to sleep… how can I track my sleep? If I sleep with it on it’s going to be dead at some point in the day when I need it to be on!? Confusion.
Well charge it in the evening or whenever your at home and not going out. For me I work at night so I’ll charge in the evening while at home not needing it that way I have it over night and while I sleep in the day
Still have a series 1 here. Need to upgrade. Only wish that Apple would do solar like Garmin. Almost bought a Garmin a few months back because of the solar function.
From a comment I saw above, a better route for you might be to get your battery replaced 👍👍👍👍 If you get one of these, you'll still have to charge it every day, but it will no longer be because the battery is knackered... 🥴🥴🥴🥴 I dread to think what the battery life of one of these will be like when the battery gets old 🥴🥴🥴🥴
Series 4 user here 🎉 mines on 84% battery health still lasts all day, it’s not laggy or anything on os10, want to be wowed before I upgrade yet to see anything to make that happen!
While I haven't specifically tried a Nike band, years ago I did have a Tropical silicone strap for my watch, which also 'has holes' through it; it *definitely* makes a difference in how comfortable the strap is in hot weather or if the strap gets wet, compared to a 'solid' silicone strap... During fall and winter, not really anything to notice, but during the height of summer, yes, it makes a *huge* difference in comfort. I'd expect a similar (or better) effect with a Nike strap, given its larger holes, and I'm going to get one in readiness for summer next year 👍👍👍👍
I am using the series 5, but honestly even the series 9 is not a big upgrade for me. OFC the tech improved inside, but overall the usage, the feel, the whole experience barely improved. They should have improved its battery time, which one the key feature, but Apple does not want to improve the battery time of its phone and watches. It is like the iPhone. Stucked and does not move forward, or when its move, it is moving the wrong direction.
Great video! I'm jumping ships from Android to Apple tomorrow and this made me excited about getting the series 9 to replace my Galaxy Watch Active 2. It has way more features and plenty I'll never even need, but it's nice to know they are there.
Kudos DC Rainmaker. I’m impressed how you’ve put this together in such depth SO QUICK! Like the watch hasn’t even hit the Apple Store (at least here in London UK)! 👏🏾 bravo man.
Thank you for the video. I just bought an Apple Watch 9. What time of day do you find to be the best time to charge the watch in order to not miss much for the health tracking?
I'm a dinosaur on apple watch 3 - hey, it still works perfectly and battery life says 93%, it lasts about 18 hours - I'm interested in the always on display and different watch faces to my boring old ones. I imagine for those on anything vaguely newer this is similar but I'd like to see the options. Great review
Is there any difference in GPS activity battery life between the 41 and 45mm watch? My GF just bought the 41mm Series 9. Just trying to work out how long she can go on a charge. Also how long will it go on the ultra low power mode?
That's awesome Siri was randomly transcribing the whole time haha. Great video as always. Oh and speaking of transcribing- ever since updating iPhone 14 to iOS 17 the Siri voice to text has been definitively more buggy - noticed that at all?
Should Apple have a Whoop-like setting that gives you heart rate data and max battery life? I don’t like Whoop’s subscription model, but I can’t imagine charging an Apple Watch more than once per day for 24/7 wear.
sorry as a long time (30+ years) user of Apple computer - I am finding it hard to justify the existence of the Apple Watch (I have a series 9) .. it really is just a glorified remote control for an iPhone but with waterproofing (of such) and body sensors, but outside of that I wish Apple would devote more time to sorting out their computers rather than consumer products.
@@quicksesh you probably don’t need an apple watch then, but that is just your own use case. For most people, Apple watch is a valuable fitness tracking device - the best in the market if I’ll have to be precise - that helps them improve their physique and overall lifestyle.
I have a fenix 7 ss but keep looking at this one mainly because I didn’t use much of fenix functionality in a hot country. Plus that screen of course is something else. Also I recently switched from android to iphone. Kind of on the fence about it charging once a day would be a bummer
Do you think iphone 14 pro max can get find my iPhone option in an update later as apple watch series 9 won’t find the precious location for Iphone models other than 15

Ray was wondering if you have a similar video for HR sensors. Looking for a watch for my indoor/outdoor cycling to record HR. My current Garmin Instinct HR is terrible after about 18 months of usage.
Hmm, not directly. My recommendation is either: Polar Verity Sense (arm band, awesome), Polar H9 or H10 (simply depends if you want the fancier H10 features), or something like the Garmin HRM-PRO series. All are my top recommended straps/sensors, and what I use to compare accuracy.
Keep it your be disappointed once you pay for a new one that does exactly the same as your series 6, if your 6 is faulty or stops working etc then upgrade
The activity is not intuitive. I just want steps. But you can’t just show steps. You have to navigate to it. And the steps are completely false and way over counted. Fitbit was better at that.

Nice review. You talked me into keeping my series 8 another year.
Apple Watch or Venu 3? What do you recommend?
I love the time and energy you invest in your videos
It’s Absolutely amazing! Works fast . You will instantly fall in love , light years better than the 8 !!!
Contemplating a switch from Garmin. Will Apple Watch data sync with Garmin/Intervals etc, or is it proprietary?
When do you find time to charge the watch if you depend on wearing it for your night time activities?
Ideally you buy two watches and you charge one whilst using the other and switch when battery is empty

This is the way to go. Upgrade when yours actually stops fulfilling your needs.

You need to have watch OS 10. And on your iPhone, tap the workout timer on the Lock Screen to see all of your metrics.
It seems to me there’s a lot that doesn’t really work.
