ALL-ROUNDERS

ONEPLUS WATCH 3

Even more pleasing is fast 10W USB-C charging. The watch is feature-rich, offering Google Assistant along with 100+ sport modes, GPS, and a load of health features. From £269, oneplus.com

APPLE WATCH SERIES 11

How's your blood pressure? If it's been raised by the excitement of a new Apple Watch release, you'll find out with the Series 11's new hypertension alerts. The newest Apple Watch looks a lot like the old one, just twice as scratch resistant and with a 24-hour battery life, a 5G option, and personalised fitness plans thanks to Apple Intelligence. It's an all-round digital companion, and a good one too. From £399, apple.com

SAMSUNG GALAXY WATCH 8 CLASSIC

Though the standard version is cheaper and lighter, the Classic version of Samsung's latest Galaxy Watch 8, with its stainless steel case and bezel, blends premium looks and smarts, with health tracking and Al run coaching for beginners. It’s bulkier, pricier, and short on battery life compared to some rivals, but for those wanting a stylish health-focused smartwatch, it's an easy one to love. From £449, samsung.com
