Inside the Apple Store: LEFT Original Apple Watch RIGHT Apple Watch Series 2 Both watches have an Ion-X glass screen cover. The new model has what Apple calls a "Second Generation OLED Retina" display. The Apple Watch 2 on the right below was clearly brighter and crisper despite having the same resolution screen as the older model. We first looked at the watches inside the fairly brightly lit store. Both watches were the larger 42mm size, a 38 mm size is available. We set the brightness to identical levels, the Apple Watch 2 demo unit being locked at about 3/4 brightness. The staff member helping me had a first generation Apple Watch. So, curious I went to my local Apple store to see one in action. The new Apple Watch has more than double the NIT brightness at 1000 of the original.

It was far less visible than dedicated GPS watches or even the new Android Wear Polar M600. Screen VisibilityĪ big issue for me with the original Apple Watch was screen visibility in sunlight. Not to bad, but no where near a dedicated GPS watch or even the Polar M600 which is rated at 8 hours on the run with GPS and HR and it is unclear if one can listen to the built in music player for those 5 hours. Battery life varies by use, configuration, and many other factors actual results will vary. Using the built-in GPS of the Apple Watch Series 2 without iPhone, workout time is up to 5 hours. Tested with workout session active, heart rate sensor on, with iPhone. Testing conducted by Apple in August 2016 using preproduction Apple Watch Series 1, Apple Watch Series 2, and Apple Watch Edition, each paired with an iPhone all devices tested with prerelease software. If the watch is fully charged in workout mode Apple claims the following: Up to 8 hours Battery Lifeīattery life does not improve, if at all, over the original Apple Watch, now named Series 1.Īpple's official tests claim 18 hours of use including a 30 minute workout. The Apple Watch Series 2 was eagerly awaited by this runner as it is supposedly 2X brighter and adds on board GPS and swim rated waterproofing.
