Review: Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular further establishes an emerging computing platform

Apple Watch Series 3

4.5 / 5

The Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular takes a major step forward in making Apple's wrist-worn device its own independent, connected computing platform. Simply put, it's a must-have for athletes in the Apple ecosystem, and a wearable device worth considering for many other non-fitness use cases.

The tale of an emerging computing platform

The Apple Watch is to the iPhone what the iPad was (and still is) to the Mac.

When the iPad first debuted in 2010, Apple portrayed it as the future of computing — an accessible, dynamic device that could offer a better experience than both a laptop and a smartphone.

But getting to that idealistic future takes time. That's why, for years, the iPad still needed to be tethered to a computer for initial setup and subsequent backups.

There were technical reasons for this setup process, but it was also a deliberate decision by Apple to not-so-subtly say that, despite the hype and marketing, the iPad was not quite a replacement for the Mac — yet.

Of course, that quickly changed. Both the iPhone and iPad eventually got their own built-in setup processes, as well as automated nightly backups to iCloud. iOS — and with it, the iPad — matured to a point where the Mac (or a PC) was no longer necessary for some. The iPad grew up.

Since the Apple Watch debuted in 2015, it, too, has been a tethered device, dependent on a nearby iPhone for almost all use cases.

With each iteration, Apple has increased the independence of the Apple Watch. Last year's Series 2 model added GPS and waterproofing, allowing for exercise tracking outdoors and in the water without the need for an iPhone to be nearby.

Of course, in those situations, the Apple Watch became essentially a passive device. Without an iPhone nearby (and assuming you were not connected to Wi-Fi), you couldn't receive text messages and alerts, or talk to Siri.

Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular changes that, and makes a standalone Apple Watch far more active. With its own built-in LTE radio, the Series 3 lets you not only receive messages, but respond to them, either by scribbling or using your voice. That alone is a huge improvement, but starting next month, it will also offer streaming music, offering outdoor runners and cyclists access to their entire music library right from their wrist.

When you pair the Apple Watch Series 3 with a pair of Bluetooth headlines, particularly Apple's AirPods, the experience is even better.

There is still a long way to go. You can't leave your iPhone behind all day. While the Apple Watch Series 3 boasts about 18 hours of battery life, that only accounts for about an hour of LTE use. If you stream music and use GPS without your phone nearby, you'll get closer to 4 hours of uptime.

It is for this reason that the Apple Watch Series 3, despite the inclusion of a cellular radio, is still dependent on an iPhone. You can't set up an Apple Watch without an iPhone. You can't back it up without one, either. And you certainly can't pair or sync it to other devices, like an iPad, an iPod touch, or a Mac.

Like the iPad before it, the Apple Watch is a subset of another platform. For now.

Specs and such

For our review, we tested the Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular in both aluminum ($429 for 42-millimeter size) and stainless steel ($749) varieties. Internally, the devices are the same, including an S3 dual-core processor, W2 wireless chip, 16 gigabytes of local storage, and new altimeter for tracking floors climbed.

It should be noted that the Apple Watch Series 3 without cellular has the same components, except for storage — the non-LTE model only has half as much space, topping out at 8 gigabytes. It starts at $329 for the 38-millimeter size.

In terms of specs, all you really need to know is that the Apple Watch Series 3 is noticeably faster than the Series 2, which itself was already a significant improvement from the first-generation hardware. Apps load faster, Siri responds more quickly, and the whole experience is improved.

Externally, it looks the same. Sporting the same design means that legacy Apple Watch bands will fit the new model just fine. If you've amassed a collection of bands over the last few years as I have, this is welcome news.

Aside from a shinier, more polished finish, the stainless steel model also boasts a sapphire crystal cover that offers greater scratch resistance. The aluminum model is protected by Ion-X glass.

While the LTE models feature a ceramic back, the non-cellular versions have a composite back, all with heart rate sensors.

And yes, all Series 3 watches with cellular — including the ceramic Edition model — feature a prominent red dot on the side of the Digital Crown. To us, this is a strange and unnecessary inclusion that makes the hardware less attractive. It's a rare design misstep for Apple, but far from a dealbreaker.

"Real work"

One of the most common digs against the iPad — and tablets in general — is that if you want to get any "real work" done, you still need to get a Mac (or PC).

While there is some truth to that sentiment, it is narrow minded and short sighted. Some tasks are better suited for a physical keyboard and a robust operating system with complex multitasking, but other computing needs are not only manageable, but in some cases are actually preferable on an iPad.

Think about how many point-of-sale iPad terminals you see on a regular basis, and then consider how many Mac-based ones you have seen. Try drawing on your Mac. Try using a 15-inch MacBook Pro on an airplane tray table.

As iOS has improved over the years, so too has the experience for getting "real work" done on the iPad, most notably with this month's launch of iOS 11, featuring the new app dock, Files app, and more. Suddenly, the prospect of getting "real work" done on an iPad isn't such a joke.

Here again, there are many parallels with the Apple Watch. In some ways, the watch is vastly inferior to its parent platform, the iPhone. For example, you wouldn't want to watch YouTube on your wrist.

Perhaps the best example of both the strengths and weaknesses of the Apple Watch with cellular is texting. Thanks to the addition of an LTE radio, you can now send and receive texts from your wrist while on the go. Leave your phone at home and remain connected.

I have been texting on an iPhone since 2007. When Siri came along with the iPhone 4s, voice dictation never really caught on with me. It always seemed easier, more accurate, and less annoying to simply type. Old habits die hard.

On the Apple Watch, you can scribble out notes on the tiny display to respond to a text, and it works pretty well, considering the size of the screen. But if you want to say more than a couple of words, using Siri is a vastly superior experience.

Between the handwriting recognition, Siri, and customizable quick response prompts, the Apple Watch gets the job done when it comes to texting. Is it as reliable of an experience as typing on an iPhone? No. But in many cases, it might be far more convenient. Just like an iPad is better than a Mac in some — but not all — situations.

Because it is always on my wrist, I use Siri far more on my watch than I ever have on my iPhone. I use Siri to send texts, to control HomeKit devices, to set timers, to check the start time on a football game. I've been doing this at home for the last few years.

Now, with a cellular-connected Apple Watch, I can do it all on the go.

A day in the park

Since the Apple Watch Series 2 launched last year, I have made a habit of running outside without my phone. With GPS and built-in storage, I could track my runs and listen to my music without having my phone nearby.

Still, the experience was far from perfect. For one, the watch was limited to a paltry 2 gigabytes of synced music. And then there's the general "I don't have my phone on me" anxiety. Plus, what if something happens to me while out on a run and I need help? Or what if someone needs to contact me for an emergency?

To be clear, LTE connectivity is not just advantageous for athletes. Anyone who wants to leave their phone at home for a few hours while remaining connected now has that ability, whether it's a woman who doesn't feel like lugging a purse to the movie theater, or a beachgoer who doesn't want to take their iPhone onto the sand.

And as Apple Pay support at retailers expands, the Apple Watch will only grow in stature, serving not only as a replacement for an iPhone in certain situations, but also negating the need for a wallet.

So to put the Apple Watch through its paces, I spent a Saturday in the park with it, sans iPhone. I ran three miles while listening to music on my AirPods (no streaming yet, but we'll follow up when Apple debuts that feature). I made a few phone calls — one via my AirPods, and one on the watch itself (the call recipient said the difference in quality was negligible, and both sounded great). I dictated some texts and scribbled others. I asked Siri for the scores on a few college football games. I got breaking news alerts from The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.

After an hour and a half of pretty regular use, I returned home and was reacquainted with my iPhone. For the most part, I didn't miss it.

None of these tasks was accomplished with as much power or luxury as would be offered on an iPhone display. And yet in many ways it was more convenient, more freeing, and simply more fun.

It's not as easy to text on an Apple Watch as it is on an iPhone, but in that situation on a nice, sunny day, I found the experience to actually be more enjoyable. I dictated a response, lowered my wrist, and went back to enjoying the world around me. Siri talks now, too, so I don't even have to stare at the screen for a response.

The Apple Watch is always on me, but never in my way.

If there was one obvious thing I missed in leaving my phone behind, it was the absence of a camera. While out on my run, I saw something I wanted to capture to share with friends. Without my phone, that wasn't possible.

This is not to say that I necessarily want a camera on the Apple Watch. Adding one could be cumbersome, unattractive, and potentially creepy. But if the Apple Watch is going to evolve into a truly independent platform, a camera feels like an inevitability.

After an hour and a half in the park with heavy Apple Watch use, I had reduced the battery to 75 percent.

Some will find this short battery life unacceptable. Those who do are missing the point. The Apple Watch is not an iPhone replacement (yet).

Since I was going out that night, I left my watch charging while I took a shower. By the time I was finished getting ready, the battery was back at 100 percent. I wanted my camera that night, though, so my iPhone SE came with me.

That's really where the Apple Watch is at in 2017. You'll still want your phone some of the time — probably most of the time. But you don't need it, and that feels pretty good.

Carrier nonsense

What doesn't feel pretty good, however, is the pricing.

Apple did a commendable job of getting an LTE radio into the Apple Watch at a reasonable price. The Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular costs only $30 more than the Series 2 did at launch. That's much more reasonable than the $130 up-charge Apple sells for an iPad with cellular.

The carriers were not so generous.

All four major cellular providers in the U.S. charge $10 per month for Apple Watch connectivity. And at that price, it taps into your regular data pool rather than expanding the data cap.

Some carriers have softened the blow by offering the first three months for free. And the Apple Watch Series 3 is contract-free, so you can cancel your data plan at any time (or just not enact one at all).

Still, given the limited capabilities of the Apple Watch, especially with the short battery life on LTE, carriers should not be charging users $10 per month for connectivity. A rate of $5 per month seems more reasonable.

Miscellaneous: A new band, and the mixed bag of watchOS 4

Along with the Apple Watch Series 3, Apple released a new "Sport Loop" band. This is a lighter, more breathable alternative to the rubbery fluoroelastomer Sport Band.

The new band loops around the bottom of the watch face when worn on the left wrist. Underneath, it has five velcro-like surfaces that adhere to the band.

In terms of aesthetics, it's a pretty ho-hum band. It is, however, very comfortable.

It should be noted that the band works fine in water and is unlikely to degrade in the way that, say, a leather band might. In fact, showering with the band might be advisable after a workout, given that we found the material absorbs some sweat and odor.

The other big change for this year is watchOS 4, which runs on all Apple Watch hardware, including the first-generation model.

watchOS 4 is a welcome improvement, but does not represent the major shakeups that occurred with watchOS 2 and watchOS 3. Most notably, however, the app home screen can now be viewed as an alphabetical list rather than the honeycomb layout.

The dock has also been redesigned to roll through apps like a ferris wheel. The apps rotate in the same vertical direction as the Digital Crown.

The new dock has the advantage of being able to show up to three apps at once as they are scrolled through. However, the 3D scrolling also obscures the bottom portion of apps so the entire app screen can not be viewed (as was possible with the previous dock). Frankly, we prefer the old dock and seeing the full app.

The Music app has also been redesigned, and is generally a much better experience, save for one huge error on Apple's part: You can no longer browse an iPhone music library from your wrist — interaction with the iPhone's music is limited to controls only after playback is started on the phone itself.

Despite that change for the worse, Apple did make one change that vastly improves interacting with iPhone content — a "Now Playing" screen automatically displays on the watch when content is played from an iPhone. This makes it infinitely easier to adjust volume, skip tracks or pause music from your wrist.

You'll just have to start that playback on the iPhone first if you want to take advantage of this. We hope that Apple will fix the issue and reinstate the ability to browse an iPhone's music library in a software update.

The Apple Watch Music app now only allows you to browse music stored on the device. The limits on local music storage remain something of a mystery — I managed to sync more than 4 gigabytes of music with one playlist and the "Heavy Rotation" feature. But when I attempted to add another playlist, the iPhone Watch app told me I could not transfer anymore, despite the fact that I had a whopping 9 gigabytes of storage available.

All of this will be a moot point once Apple Music and iTunes Match streaming come to the watch next month. That won't be the case for every user, though.

As watchOS improves, Apple needs to give users more control of their music library.

Your questions

I solicited reader questions on Twitter in advance of publishing this review, and most reader concerns seemed to revolve around two issues: battery life and LTE connectivity.

Regarding battery life, results vary wildly depending on how — and how frequently — you use the watch. As we mentioned, using LTE on the go with Bluetooth audio and GPS and heart rate monitoring is a recipe for draining your watch in half a day, easily. If you're a light user who has your phone on you most of the time, you'll have no problem getting through a full day.

Most readers who had been testing their watch for a few days expressed the same sentiment: Battery life on the Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular is just as good if not better than previous models. But if you push the device to its limits, you'll need to recharge.

In short, expect to recharge nightly for average use.

As for LTE, many of the concerns involved misconceptions regarding the Wi-Fi bug that was previously publicized. If you're unfamiliar (or confused), the Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular can have zero connectivity if the watch is within range of a known public Wi-Fi network.

In short, if you use your iPhone to connect to your city's free Wi-Fi, or internet at Starbucks or McDonald's, or any restaurant or cafe, it may cause problems. That's because many public Wi-Fi access points require users to agree to terms in a browser before logging in.

The iPhone automatically shares known Wi-Fi networks with the Apple Watch to keep the experience simple and easy. But the watch cannot bypass public Wi-Fi login screens. And because LTE use is such a battery drain, the watch prefers known Wi-Fi networks over cellular.

I didn't experience any of these problems in my tests. But to ensure I wouldn't have issues, I also conducted a purge of bad Wi-Fi info before setting up the Series 3.

The bug is an unfortunate oversight by Apple, and one that the company has vowed to fix. We suspect the patch will arrive soon, and this problem will be a moot point.

With the Wi-Fi bug out of the way, we saw no problems with AT&T's LTE connectivity in New York City. It would seem to us that if you have two or more bars of signal on your iPhone, your watch will perform just fine on cellular.

That could change when more data-intensive tasks like music streaming arrive. But for now, your notifications and texts won't be an issue.

Where does Apple Watch go from here?

Seven and a half years into its lifespan, the iPad is still finding its footing as a standalone computing platform. Expect the Apple Watch to follow that same trajectory.

iPhone independence may be inevitable, but technical challenges remain. It's unlikely that Apple would rush to deliver a completely iPhone-free experience with battery levels at their current state.

The Apple Watch's dependence on the iPhone is necessary not only from a technical perspective, but it also communicates very clearly to the user that the watch is not an iPhone replacement. It's a supplement.

The watch's separation from the iPhone will be gradual, and the Series 3 is the latest step in that ongoing evolution. And it's a significant step.

Aside from the aforementioned camera and necessary battery life improvements, the Apple Watch could also stand to have some sort of always-on, low-power display mode.

It would also be nice to see the Apple Watch become more connected and platform agnostic. GymKit is a step in the right direction (if your gym has new treadmills, at least), allowing the Apple Watch to talk to something other than your iPhone. Why can't my Apple Watch talk to my iPad? Or my Mac, beyond logging in and Apple Pay in Safari? Why aren't there Apple Health and Activity apps for iPad and macOS? And why can't an Apple Watch talk to (gasp) Android devices? The latter question notwithstanding, the other options seem logical.

Concepts like "smart bands" have been rumored for years, but seem less certain. Having a modular platform with bulky, optional accessories doesn't seem like the approach Apple would prefer, but perhaps they'll open up the ability for third-party manufacturers at some point.

Such gimmicks, however, may prove unnecessary. Two and a half years into the Apple Watch's life, Apple has pinpointed the sweet spot where its wrist-worn computer functions best — light communications and fitness tracking capabilities that are available when you want them, and get out of your way otherwise.

It's a new way of being connected while also being in the moment. The groundwork has been laid, and Apple Watch Series 3 shows us that the underlying technology of the watch is starting to catch up to the concept of the platform introduced two and a half years ago.

The future is now

It's fun to think about the future of wearable devices from a geeking-out perspective, but wondering whether or not you should wait for hypothetical advances to the hardware in 2018 and beyond would be a mistake.

Apple's iPad came out of the gate at a blockbuster pace, selling millions and growing at a rate that made some wonder if it could be bigger than the iPhone. It isn't, though, and sales cooled. Why?

The most popular theory is that those early iPads bought by consumers proved to be "good enough." That is, unlike an iPhone that customers want to upgrade every year or two, the iPad has a longer shelf life of four or five years.

In many ways, the longevity of an iPad is a testament to Apple getting it right on the first few tries. The iPad did what it set out to do, and it proved tough to improve on a winning concept — and even tougher to sell consumers on incremental hardware improvements.

If you're new to the Apple Watch, you may be wondering if the device is at that "good enough" point where you can jump on board and be happy with your $400-plus investment for three, four or even five years. I think the answer to that is yes.

If you already own an Apple Watch, the decision on whether or not to upgrade is less clear. Many users see absolutely no need for an LTE radio, as they always have their iPhone on them no matter what, and have no intention of leaving it at home.

Others may be turned off by the $10-per-month data plans.

If you have a Series 2 watch and don't care about LTE, the speed improvements alone are not worth the investment. The Series 2 is good enough.

First-generation watch buyers will have an easier time buying into the upgrade. And for those with the first watch who don't care about LTE, the Series 1 model with dual-core chip is a great (and affordable) option to consider — provided you don't care about GPS or swim tracking.

The dirty little secret of the Apple Watch since the first hardware launched was that the apps themselves were, to put it bluntly, almost worthless. Apple tried to suggest the Apple Watch could be the second coming of the iOS App Store, but that was a big misstep on the company's part — at least back in 2015.

Until now, the Apple Watch has worked best when used passively, for a number of reasons. The screen is too small, the hardware has been too slow, and you've always had a bigger, more capable and more powerful device on you, in your pocket. Why would you spend your time texting from your watch when you can just pull out your iPhone?

Getting notifications on your wrist and tracking fitness were the strengths of the platform, and features like Apple Pay and Siri were icing on the cake, making it a worthwhile investment. But third-party apps weren't just an afterthought — in many cases they were a complete joke.

Bringing LTE into the mix changes things. I'm not suggesting that some sort of Apple Watch app renaissance is on the horizon, but I suspect that apps — especially non-fitness ones — will find some more utility and use in a brave, new, iPhone-free world.

The iPad never replaced the Mac, and the Apple Watch will not replace the iPhone. But when each platform stands on its own legs, the ecosystem becomes even stronger. The addition of LTE has nudged the Apple Watch experience from passive to slightly more active, and that's a good thing.

With Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular, the Apple Watch continues to find its footing. One day it'll leave the nest for good — but for now, it's only allowed out of the house for a few hours at a time.
