From £369, apple.com

If you’re a paid-up member of Team iPhone and want a smartwatch that doubles as a fitness tool, you can’t really beat the Apple Watch. Its smartwatch skills are unrivalled and its fitness credentials improve with each edition. The Series 7 adds minor updates like automatic detection for cycling, better durability with a crackresistant crystal display and water resistance up to 50m. Its impressive array of third-party fitness apps give you hundreds of training tools with everything from run coaching to follow-along calisthenics workouts.

Add in blood oxygen and ECG health skills, plus three months of Pelotonrivalling Apple Fitness+ for free, and it’s an enticing option. The 18-hour battery life still won’t rival regular fitness watches, but improved rapid charging does help. Design ★★★★★ Insights ★★★★★ OVERALL ★★★★
