If you have an iPhone – you need an Apple Watch. It's that simple.
It's the most popular watch on the planet. It accounts for more than half (!) of all smartwatch sales. And there are obvious reasons for that. The Apple Watch, especially the latest versions, represents the peak of design and ergonomics, and outperforms any other smartwatch by at least five or six metrics.
What makes them so great?
Well, for example:
- Availability of a ton of convenient apps. Some of them come bundled with the smartphone, while others can already work independently.
- The best operating system. Apple is the leader in integrating OS and hardware. WatchOS is designed specifically for its smartwatches and takes all their features into account. Even the Apple Watch 3, released in 2017, will be able to work with most of the watchOS 6 functions.
- These watches are almost impossible to steal. The straps may visually seem weak, but in reality they are very sturdy. And they are specially designed not to come undone accidentally, even in the hands of an experienced pickpocket. The watches are quite expensive, but you don't have to worry about them in a crowd.
- Convenient voice chat. You can record your voice at any moment (without even taking out your smartphone!) and send it to the addressee.
- Many people decide to buy Apple Watch simply to improve communication. The watches allow you to communicate, they have a speaker and microphone, you see incoming messages, can accept and decline calls, and pay with the watch in supermarkets. No need to take your smartphone out of your pocket—everything you need is already on your wrist.
- Apple Watch are known for their reliability and durability.
- A ton of watch faces that can be changed at will, plus the ability to set your own calendar views, timer, weather, and so on.
- Perfect feature for couples (and doctors!): the ability to send your heart rate. Touch the display, hold two fingers on it, and the watch will record your heartbeat. This data can then be sent to another Apple Watch owner, and they will receive your heartbeat as a pleasant light tapping on the wrist. A very romantic way to remind someone of yourself.
- Convenient navigation and simple zooming.
- Great synchronization with your iPhone, not only via Bluetooth but also over Wi-Fi.
- Good battery life. Even with very active use of the Apple Watch 3, the charge lasts for a full day. In the Series 4 and 5 the battery was further improved—they last a very long time.
- Silent alarm. If you choose silent mode, at the time you set the watch will simply start tapping on your wrist. No sound, just strong haptic feedback. A much more pleasant way to wake up, and you are guaranteed not to wake anyone else. You can even use it during a work meeting without anyone noticing.
- Unique Taptic Engine. It's not so much vibration as actual tapping. Completely new sensations, even if you've already used smartwatches from other brands. Taps, double taps, different intensities and speeds. You can feel exactly what just happened: a message arrived, an incoming call, something urgent, or it can wait.
Well, and of course, for many the main advantage of these watches is their appearance. And the quality brand Apple with its cherished apple logo. The watches are beautiful, neat, not too big and not too small. And a large selection of colors and straps allows you to choose exactly the option that will suit your style well.
Apple Watch Series 3
Apple's peak engineering achievement of 2017. More powerful than all previous watches. Work seamlessly with watchOS 4 and newer OS versions. Their main highlight at the time became detailed heart activity monitoring for the owner. If you're over forty or actively involved in sports, this watch functionality will come in very handy.
Another feature of Series 3 is voice responses from Siri and the presence of an altimeter. Plus, like in the previous version (Series 2), there is full water resistance, GPS, and an abundance of useful apps. The bands that come with Watch Series 3 are suitable for all smartwatches, and this is overall Apple's strategy: buy our gadgets and don't worry, they will remain relevant for a very long time.
Apple Watch Series 3 has most of the features of the Series 4 and Series 5 models but costs much less. Especially if you buy them in the US. They are shipped to us from there, so prices for Apple Watch in America are typically 25-35% lower. Checking this is very simple: go to the page of the gadget you're interested in on Apple.ru. Look at its price. And change ".ru" in the address to ".com". This will take you to the American version of the site, where you can see how much you can buy the same device for.
The difference might surprise you. For example, for some iPhone and Macbook models it amounts to more than 20 thousand rubles. Even if you spend a thousand on delivery (and with Prostobox.com it could be even cheaper), the savings are very substantial. You can save yourself several days or even weeks of work – simply by purchasing on a different version of the same site. We carried out a comparison of all Apple equipment prices in this table.
If you want to buy Apple Watch from the USA, you don't necessarily have to do it on the Apple site. For example, check out Amazon.com, which since January of this year sells all Apple equipment officially. There are sometimes promotions, so the cost of gadgets can be even lower than on the manufacturer's official site. Plus, delivery to the Prostobox.com warehouse is faster and cheaper there, and the store treats customers from Russia well, so there are never any issues with it. Other advantageous and convenient options include the electronics sites Newegg.com, BHPhotoVideo.com, and the hypermarket Walmart.com, which has gradually become Amazon's main competitor in recent times. One of the stores is sure to have exactly what you need, often at a discounted price.

Apple Watch Series 4
Updated and improved watch. With new case sizes (40 and 44 mm instead of 38 and 42 mm) and a screen diagonal increased by 35%. The resolution has also improved – by 30%. Now it uses an OLED LTPO display, which is more energy-efficient. During operation, it consumes 10-15% less charge, plus – it can be precisely calibrated.
The device case has become thinner. Series 3 models were 11.4 mm thick, while the Apple Watch 4 is only 10.7 mm. The edges of the gadget are now rounded, making it look even better. The device features the new S4 chip with 64-bit architecture for the first time. Thanks to this, the watch became 50% faster. Plus, the base configuration now includes 16 GB of storage instead of 8 GB in the 3rd version.
The speaker has increased significantly, and accordingly, the maximum volume of the device has too (by 50%!).
A new optical heart rate sensor has been added to the bottom of the Apple Watch 4. The accelerometer, gyroscope, and electrical heart signal sensor have also been improved. For easier control, the company added vibration to the Digital Crown, so you can get tactile feedback even when scrolling. No need to look at the screen.
ECG sensor, new watch faces, a special chip that detects falls and calls an ambulance if the person doesn't get up for more than a minute. And bands from the Apple Watch Series 3 (and even older ones) are compatible. All in all, the Apple Watch 4 is the coolest smartwatch.

Apple Watch Series 5
In the fall of 2019, Apple Watch 5 hits the market. Even more advanced (and, to be honest, a bit pricier). Cool watchOS 6, tons of updates. For the first time, full-fledged native apps without needing an iPhone connection. Apple has already sold over $9,5 billion worth of watches in 2019 — nearly 20 million devices, up 48% from 2018. The new Apple Watch 5 is set to become the top seller, fully replacing models older than Watch Series 3.
The company promises support for people with hearing and vision issues. The watches will now be a top-tier device not just for the young, but for seniors too. The Noise app will even warn you if the room gets too loud — helping protect your eardrums. And the Cycles app will help women track their monthly cycles more accurately.
The watches will be more powerful thanks to a new chip and even more durable with an improved battery. They’ll help you find your iPhone or AirPods if they’re nearby via Bluetooth. And, of course, they’ll have full access to the App Store with watch-specific apps from independent developers.
Apple has built sleep tracking into the Apple Watch Series 5. The company’s smartwatches were already great for tracking health and fitness progress, but now they can accurately monitor deep and light sleep cycles and wake you at the right moment so you don’t feel drained all day. Apple also promises an improved display and a host of other useful features.
Needless to say, the company’s new smartwatches will lead the market and leave competitors even further behind. If you feel you deserve the absolute best and don’t mind spending an extra $50–$100, buy the latest Apple Watch 5 directly in the US and have it shipped with Prostobox.com. It’s not only more affordable but often much faster than buying from resellers in Russia. We deliver goods from the States in one to two weeks — often before new tech even goes on sale officially in Russia.
