Apple Watch Series 7

Apple grew the screen again, to 41 and 45mm. The front crystal got 50 percent thicker without the watch getting thicker, which made the Series 7 the first Watch that was both IP6X dust resistant and genuinely crack resistant. That matters. A shattered front is the single most common Apple Watch repair, and this is the generation that started taking the problem seriously. Fast charging arrived, reaching 80 percent in about 45 minutes, which is what finally made overnight sleep tracking practical, since you can top the thing up while you shower. The always-on display got 70 percent brighter indoors with your wrist down. A full QWERTY keyboard turned up too, as fiddly as that sounds.
