During its 2024 iPhone event in September, Apple revealed the new Apple Watch Series 10 and, after our review of the new model, it's what we recommend for most people. Rumors suggested we might also see a new Apple Watch Ultra 3 or a revamped Apple Watch SE, but those didn't materialize. That makes Apple's official smartwatch lineup the Series 10, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 and the Apple Watch SE.
A short while after the event, the company released watchOS 11, which unlocked new features not just for the new model, but for older generations too. Ultimately, if you're an athlete with a demanding training schedule, the Ultra model will work best. If cost is your chief concern, the SE is the way to go — though there may be an even cheaper model on the horizon. But if you just want the best companion for your iPhone, go for the flagship Apple Watch. Here's the full rundown of the best Apple Watch you can buy.

And now's a great time to grab one because the GoPro Hero9 Black is down to $260 on Amazon, which is 26 percent off its usual $350.
This tiny action camera is everything you could want, capable of recording video at up to 5K resolution. Yep, that's right — you'll be able to capture stunning high-res videos in up to 5K with fantastic detail.
But the GoPro Hero9 Black can also shoot 20MP photos, which is likely better than your phone camera (unless you have a next-gen flagship). And you don't want to wave your phone around during outdoor activities, right? Plus, the SuperPhoto feature is there to choose the best image processing option available to deliver great results every time.
If you're interested in livestreaming your adventures, the GoPro Hero9 Black can help you do that, too. This action camera can stream content live at 1080p, making it ideal for any wild festivals or rad surfing sessions you're planning on attending.
The cool thing about the GoPro Hero9 Black is that you don't even have to wait until you're back at your laptop to create share-worthy videos. The TimeWarp mode lets you create time-lapse videos on the move.
And don't worry about damage. GoPros are designed to withstand weather, water, and physical trauma. This camera's rugged build allow it to survive any tumbles as well as you can.
