What's our thoughts on the Apple Watch Series 6?

Review Overview:
Apple's Watch 6 is the latest in a line of innovative smartwatches that emphasize fitness, connectivity, and health tracking. It offers great power and performance, a bright always-on display, and is packed with health-oriented features like blood oxygen level monitoring and sleep tracking. However, despite these positives, it comes with a high price tag and does not feature a camera.

Overall Score: 3.0/5

Price 3.0/5

Price: 3/5
The Apple Watch 6 sits at the higher end of the price spectrum for smartwatches, which might deter budget-conscious buyers, but given the array of features it offers, it could be seen as a worthy investment for those willing to splurge.

Cameras 3.0/5

Camera: 0/5
Unlike some smartwatches, the Apple Watch 6 does not have a built-in camera. This might be a deal-breaker for some who may want to take photos or video calls directly from their watch.

Power 3.0/5

Power: 5/5
The Watch 6 is powered by Apple's new S6 SiP (System in Package), a dual-core processor based on the A13 Bionic Chip found in the iPhone 11, but optimized for the watch. This makes it up to 20% faster than its predecessor, allowing for quick app launches and smooth performance.

Battery Life 3.0/5

Battery: 4/5
While Apple claims an 18-hour "all-day" battery life, real-world use with all features activated can drain the battery quicker. However, it does include faster charging, achieving full charge in about 1.5 hours, which is a noticeable improvement.
