Ty here and this here is an Apple Watch
[14]
series 7. so if watches did S updates
[18]
like that this would be a series 6S for
[20]
sure but they don't either way what you
[22]
need to know is it's a minor update
[24]
matter of fact at the risk of tanking
[26]
this video's watch time watch time uh
[29]
this watch is basically a series six but
[32]
with a slightly larger display and
[35]
slightly faster charging same price
[38]
that's basically it but there are a
[40]
bunch of other little quirks and things
[41]
you should know about it if you're
[42]
considering actually getting one
[45]
but yeah like I said the flagship new
[46]
thing about the Apple Watch series 7 is
[48]
that it's bigger all right mostly with
[51]
the screen too so you get this 20 larger
[53]
display in a watch that's just barely
[56]
bigger than the previous body and right
[58]
away you do notice that everywhere the
[60]
whole UI is a little bigger you know on
[62]
the calculator the buttons are a little
[63]
bit bigger and your notifications
[65]
there's just a little bit more text the
[67]
map if you're navigating is that much
[70]
more usable and when you're typing your
[72]
passcode of course the digits are just
[74]
that much bigger so for me I like that
[76]
the snooze button is also slightly
[78]
larger in the alarm clock but just being
[81]
slightly bigger with smaller bezels
[82]
wouldn't be quite enough for a whole new
[84]
watch so Apple did the apple thing and
[87]
built a few special features into the
[88]
series 7 that specifically work best for
[91]
the larger display so they made two
[93]
exclusive watch faces for the series 7
[96]
only to take advantage of this screen
[98]
this one here is called Contour where
[101]
the numbers literally wrap all the way
[102]
around the very edges and then there's
[104]
the this modular Duo watch face which
[107]
basically has two really large data Rich
[110]
Center complications so I can keep track
[112]
of exactly how well I'm crushing my
[114]
fitness competitions all the time
[116]
then they made a full qwerty keyboard
[120]
for the watch now that sounds terrible
[123]
at first and it actually looks a little
[125]
bit ridiculous on your wrist when you go
[126]
to reply to a text but it is a swipe
[129]
keyboard which is easier to crank out
[131]
words on you're swiping between letters
[132]
of the words and auto predict is usually
[135]
pretty decent I just personally didn't
[137]
find myself actually using this very
[139]
much like it is enough to get a couple
[141]
words down but if you get enough words
[143]
wrong the UI is barely big enough to go
[147]
back through and select the words you
[148]
want to replace and then you tap in and
[151]
then re-swipe them and you're holding
[153]
your wrist up this whole time and I
[155]
don't know it's fine it's fine for quick
[156]
messages but I'm still going to go with
[158]
voice text nine times out of ten either
[160]
way I think we all knew that having a
[161]
slightly bigger screen would be a pretty
[163]
basic upgrade for a smartwatch but what
[165]
I was a little more curious about
[166]
especially after seeing all of those
[168]
apple promo videos was actually the
[170]
shape of this new display so if you've
[173]
seen the videos then you're familiar
[175]
they've pushed the screen right up all
[177]
the way to the very edges here and so it
[180]
gets so close to the edges that apple is
[182]
showing readable text literally bleeding
[184]
over the edges and corners of the watch
[187]
like readable from the side which looks
[189]
awesome in rendered videos with no
[191]
Reflections but I was very curious about
[193]
all the reflections and stray light and
[196]
refractions that happen in real life
[198]
turns out it didn't really make much of
[201]
a difference at all I mean yes the Apple
[203]
watch has always had this shape with the
[205]
curved edges and this year the display
[207]
does push more up into those Corners
[209]
than ever before but it doesn't make
[211]
much of a difference with readability
[213]
where most of the stuff is in the center
[214]
of the screen literally the one place I
[216]
found it to make the biggest difference
[218]
is in the exclusive Contour watch face
[220]
that puts the numbers all the way around
[222]
the most reflective edges of the display
[225]
so then yeah you're going to have to
[227]
learn to deal with some more annoying
[229]
Reflections on a regular basis just to
[231]
see what time it is I like the bigger
[232]
screen though bottom line now something
[234]
to consider if you have X smaller wrists
[237]
or if you're a little more sensitive to
[239]
the size of this big watch like it's
[242]
starting to look like a computer on your
[243]
wrist if you're getting the biggest
[244]
watch and so you might consider getting
[247]
this smaller Apple watch instead because
[250]
that screen size is up to 41 millimeters
[253]
now which is still very usable that's
[255]
actually fun fact one millimeter smaller
[258]
than the original large sized apple
[260]
watch now when I said there's a couple
[262]
other small changes I really meant it
[264]
there's just a couple small things but
[265]
the thing about small changes is if
[268]
enough of them apply to you then they
[270]
can add up to make a bigger change which
[272]
is nice but if they don't apply to you
[275]
you might not care you'll probably know
[276]
pretty quickly which can't be fallen so
[278]
this is now the most durable Apple watch
[281]
ever so I noticed the speaker on the
[283]
left is now a single slot where previous
[285]
versions were two slots but that's
[286]
apparently not contributing to
[288]
durability it's actually the thicker
[290]
cover glass and you can never tell just
[292]
by looking at it from the outside
[293]
because it doesn't protrude anymore it
[295]
actually goes deeper into the watch and
[298]
that larger z-axis Dimension makes it
[301]
more crack resistant than ever before so
[303]
if you tend to put your wash through a
[305]
lot maybe you play a lot of sports with
[307]
it on you're lifting with it you hit
[308]
stuff with it maybe you're tough on It
[310]
Outdoors maybe you're my sister and the
[313]
entire cover glass just breaks off of
[314]
your watch for no reason then yeah this
[317]
may be important to you and then the
[319]
watch is Now
[320]
ip6x dust resistant not because of some
[323]
new hardware or coding but actually
[325]
Apple's never tested the watch for dust
[327]
resistance before so it's just kind of a
[328]
bonus to now have that extra Peace of
[330]
Mind they've always tested for water
[332]
resistance though like people ask me
[333]
sometimes if they can get the watch wet
[335]
or shower with it uh yes you can
[338]
literally dive underwater with an Apple
[339]
Watch and it'll be fine it's rated for
[341]
50 meters deep of water resistance so
[344]
it's no Garmin but the things have been
[346]
pretty tough for a while this watch is
[348]
also now brighter when you're not
[351]
looking at it
[352]
it's subtle but you know so if you have
[354]
always on you know how it gets dimmer
[356]
when you're not looking at it and then
[357]
gets brighter when you're checking it
[359]
when you're checking it same brightness
[360]
Max is the same but when you put it down
[363]
and it's sort of dimmer it's a bit
[365]
brighter in that dim State than the
[367]
previous one
[368]
so if you're someone who likes to just
[370]
glance over at the watch without doing
[372]
like an obvious gesture then yeah you
[374]
can check the time or your complications
[377]
or notifications easier that way it
[379]
barely shows on camera but this new
[380]
watch is slightly slightly more readable
[383]
from off axis when it's dim it's
[386]
noticeable when you put them next to
[388]
each other but it wasn't a huge deal for
[390]
me but the little thing that applied to
[391]
me the most it charges 33 faster now so
[396]
same battery life about a day and a half
[398]
you can kill it much faster if you do
[400]
workouts or GPS tracked activity stuff
[403]
like that but with and only with the new
[405]
USBC charger included in the box with
[408]
this new Puck the watch does charge up a
[410]
bit faster it's not super dramatic it'll
[413]
still take about an hour to charge it up
[415]
fully from dead but if you're like me
[417]
I'm a person that wears a watch like 24
[419]
hours a day all the time I sleep in it
[421]
too so it's my alarm clock I hate going
[424]
to sleep with it on but it is a great
[426]
alarm clock just tapping me on the wrist
[427]
so the only times I really get to charge
[430]
it are very brief it'll be like when I'm
[432]
in the shower or when I get up in the
[435]
morning for a couple minutes so I wanted
[436]
to charge fast when I do get a chance to
[438]
charge so this charging speed boost is
[440]
appreciated uh eight minutes on the new
[442]
charger is enough for eight hours of
[445]
sleep tracking with the screen off so
[447]
that's pretty great just make sure you
[449]
have a decent USBC power brick and
[451]
you're set you want to know my biggest
[452]
disappointment actually with these
[454]
watches though the color choices so you
[457]
may have noticed I'm wearing the product
[459]
Red version of the watch it's very bold
[461]
bright red but I feel like with a watch
[464]
you you wear it every day you want it to
[466]
be a little more neutral a little more
[468]
able to match with more things and then
[471]
if you want to spice it up you do that
[472]
with the watch band like this beautiful
[474]
new MKBHD leather strap from moment with
[478]
the full grain soft embossed leather and
[481]
trademarked parallelogram tessellation
[483]
pattern and that crisp red accent Link
[486]
in the description also shout out to a
[487]
moment for co-designing this but Apple
[489]
doesn't offer a neutral color for the
[493]
aluminum Baseline Apple watch
[495]
I repeat no neutral colored aluminum so
[499]
aluminum is the Baseline it's 400 bucks
[501]
and I Define neutral as like a shade of
[504]
black or gray or white so I know some
[506]
people might consider the Starlight
[508]
pretty neutral but it definitely has a
[510]
warmer Hue than a silver wood and
[513]
midnight has a slight blue hue much more
[516]
than a black wood so the only way to get
[519]
a genuine neutral shade of gray would be
[522]
to jump to Titanium or stainless steel
[524]
which is not only heavier but much more
[527]
expensive so it just bothers me that I
[529]
can't get a baseline black aluminum
[531]
Apple watch
[532]
it's you know maybe I'm being picky
[534]
about the color but since I am that
[535]
picky I'll probably just stick with the
[536]
series six but that's not on sale
[538]
anymore so if you want to get one
[540]
good luck so now on Apple's site they're
[542]
selling the lineup of Series 7 SE and
[546]
the low end Series 3. so if you can
[548]
avoid the series three you know unless
[550]
it's your first smart watch in which
[551]
case you probably won't know what you're
[553]
missing that's fine but the main
[555]
differences between Series 7 and SE are
[559]
the larger always on display this set of
[561]
colors of course and there's a couple
[563]
extra sensors like for blood oxygen and
[566]
the electrocardiogram the watch SE is
[568]
great for almost everyone but if you can
[570]
get past these colors then yeah the
[573]
series 7 is it's the best overall smart
[575]
watch for the iPhone still I mean it
[578]
doesn't have any crazy new features it
[580]
doesn't have you know charging on the
[582]
back of the iPhone it doesn't have the
[584]
new Square redesign we might have been
[586]
hoping for but yeah it's the Apple watch
[590]
but bigger there you go but yeah there's
[593]
a new Apple event literally next week so
[596]
if you're hoping for some more exciting
[597]
stuff maybe we'll see some of it there
[599]
but that's pretty much it for this one
[601]
catch you guys very soon in the next one
[603]
because it's techtober and this stuff
[605]
just keeps rolling catch you guys then
[608]
peace
