As mentioned earlier, the Apple Watch Series 11 is one of our top smartwatches of 2025, earning a spot in the roundup as the best Apple upgrade. Our review from Mashable's Stan Schroeder said it, "isn't all that different from last year's model, but it has a significantly longer battery life, and that's a huge deal."

According to Schroeder, "After nearly a full week of use, I can say that the Apple Watch Series 11 is easily a one-and-a-half-day smartwatch now, and it's possible to extend that to a full weekend if you carefully use Low Power mode." Alongside a hefty battery to keep you going, this smartwatch also boasts a variety of health and fitness features, including hypertension notifications and a Sleep Score.
