Hi and welcome back to another episode my name’s Atti Bear and today I will give you a thorough review of the new Apple watch Series 3 LTE edition versus the old legacy first ever released Apple watch I had the new Apple watch Series 3 for about two and a half or three weeks now so I know how it performs under real-life conditions and I’ve been using the Apple watch legacy Edition for about nearly two years now so I definitely know what this thing can do and what it is not capable of so I will give you a thorough overview whether it’s worth it to upgrade for a new Apple watch or not let’s begin with the unboxing of the Apple watch series 3 ok so this is two new Apple watch series 3 with the LTE module so as we know it from Apple it is packed very slick and as you can see on the red writing and the red dot on the crown it is the LTE version this is the beautiful new stainless steel 42 millimeter Apple watch series 3 we already knew this packaging from the first version so nothing new here from the first look this is the one with the white band so nothing new there also it kinda feels a bit more heavy than the original version I have here but still very beautiful and it’s a bit more shiny than mine is okay so let’s see what we also receive with it some paperwork oh and there is the other part of the band so if you have smaller wrists you can use this one to attach it to yourself and here is the charger nothing new there except there’s a big difference to the first versions of the Apple watch cause this cable is really really short and I will show you my original cable later and that one is way longer it’s like three times or four times longer than this one here also we have the charging brick so this is basically all what you get with the new Apple watch series three so in the unboxing I told you that Apple decided to change the length of the charging cable compared to all the Apple watch series and this is the length of the new charging cable so it’s about a meter long and this cable here is the charging cable for the first ever release Apple Watch so Apple decided to cut the cord in half so basically this is four lengths and I get two before so this is about two meters long this is a big benefit if you want to charge your Apple watch on your nightstand I also stated in the unboxing that the new Apple watch feels heavier than the old Apple watch so to prove this to you I threw them on the scale as you can see the old legacy Apple watch weighs about 50 grams but now let’s throw in the new Apple watch Series 3 and surprise it’s not much but it’s something the new Apple watch weighs 53 grams with an item you wear everyday you will even notice the slightest changes in weight or even in the shape of the object so after a few days you won’t even notice the few grams more but something you will definitely notice is the change in the body of the new Apple watch Apple noted on the key note that there is a slight difference in the measurements of the new series three Apple watch because they have to place the LTE module somewhere and this one is placed in the back of the watch itself but enough talk about Form Factors and Cables let’s talk about features the Apple Watch Series 3 brings in a lot of new features that you don’t have on the older versions of the Apple watch for example let’s start with the heart rate monitor built into the Apple watch a cool new feature has been implemented with watch OS that was long overdue you now finally can check with a glimpse how your heart rate changes throughout the day and with the Apple watch Series 3 you are even able to see your average resting heart rate and your heart rate when you’re walking I don’t know why but they decided not to implement it in older versions of the Apple watch as you can see here aside from the obvious upgrade in processing power they also decided to finally give Siri a voice on the Apple watch so for example if you tell Siri to turn on the lights in the bureau hey Siri turn on the light in the bureau you finally get an audio feedback when she completed the task you told her to do hey Siri turn off the light in the bureau and as you can see in this example Siri does a really quick job compared to the old Apple watch so this is big benefit in using the home kit I’m still hoping that Apple at some point will recognize that they have to do better and more work with the home kit because the competition with Alexa and Google Homekit are doing a really good job and I would wish we could controll more of our smart things at home with the home kit and of course the new Apple Watch also has the feature to free its speaker if water gets in by playing high-pitched tone as you’ve seen in the beginning of this video so this is really helpful for if you’re doing the dishes or you take a shower or if you are going swimming or whatnot so now let’s talk about the biggest improvement with the Apple watch so far and I’m talking about the implementation of the E-SIM unfortunately the E-Sim is not available throughout all the carriers and in Germany I don’t know why but Apple or t-mobile decided to go with a partnership together and it’s not available from Vodafone’s users I would love if Vodafone finally decided to make this available for us and I’m pretty sure everybody would be up for paying about five bucks more a month but this is something that definitely is bugging me a lot of other countries have different carriers that support the e-SIM and somehow in Germany they decided to only go with t-mobile and since I’m a Vodafone user I’m not able to show you the full functionality off the Apple watch Series 3 with the LTE module I’m sorry for that but there is a big benefit with that feature and this is Battery life time I noticed that even if I have a long day I’m at the gym I’m recording a two hour workout or something at the end of the day I’m almost having about 60 sometimes even 70% of battery life and i get a lot of push messages and stuff so it’s not like I’m not using the Apple watch so this is a big benefit in life time with the old Apple watch I definitely did not have this amount of battery life and I ended up sometimes at the end of the day with an empty Apple watch right now I’ve even had days where I didn’t need to charge my Apple watch I even tried it and I was able to go for three days without charging the Apple watch and this is something that is definitely a big step up in using wearables or smart wearables of course I guess if you are able to use the LTE module in your Apple watch this battery time will definitely decrease but still it’s a good sign that they tweaked a lot on the battery and to have a lot more juice in there than before okay so what’s my conclusion to all of this if you are an apple watch user from the first hour and you still have the first Apple watch or the Series one the upgrade for the new series three is definitely a big step within performance and usability because this one is really really fast compared to the other versions of the Apple watch also with the new added features it kind of evolves to a device that is really something that will help you throughout your day on the other hand if you’re a user with an Apple watch series two I’m not sure whether it’s good enough or a big enough step to change for an Apple watch Series 3 because the only thing you get more than you already have it’s the LTE option but if you’re somebody who likes to run a lot and you don’t want to take your mobile along with you I think this is something you really could benefit from I personally would love to do this but unfortunately as I told you before no Vodafone support in Germany for now but I’m keeping my hopes up that they will reach a point where it will be available okay so what is your impression off the new Apple watch Series 3 did you order it are you thinking about ordering it hit me up in the comments and tell me what you think about all the new nifty features that they included in their newest release of their Apple watch and if you likeed my content today don’t forget to subscribe to my channel and make also
