The Apple Watch Series 11 (2025) offers a slightly more durable and sustainable alternative to the Series 10, featuring 100% recycled titanium, faster 5G connectivity, and improved battery life (up to 24 hours), while retaining the same S10 chip and display size. Both models share a nearly identical, slimmed-down design. So not technically the latest model.
No, the only difference is 5G. If anyone cares about that on a smartwatch - there's literally no way that offers any tangible benefit to me at least.
Recycled Aluminium is not a feature. The battery life change was because of a change in the testing methodology.
Decent prices on resale options but I'm not sure how solid a used Apple Watch is
I ordered a "Used - Mint" Apple Watch 10 46mm Slate Titanium (regular strap) from Amazon resale on 10/7/25 (also listed on SD) for $315 when they had an additional 35% off Amazon Resale for a few hours. The box came in worn, but the watch and band were sealed and unused - received a fresh 1 year Apple warranty after activating.
it's a hit or miss with some of these "mint" or "open box" or "like new" items from Amazon, but once in a while you'll get a nice, returned item.
I'm happy with the Woot Deal for a new Series 9 with cellular for $239 with the sport loop band. It took a while to get used to versus my old Samsung Galaxy 5, but it's doing everything I wanted. I looked at the 5G claim on the Series 11 and it really isn't true 5G. And I can't figure out what I would do that would need 5G speeds on the watch. It isn't like I'm watching video on the 45 mm screen. As to the 24 hr battery life, I stick the Series 9 on the charger when I get up in the morning and it is ready by the time I leave. I tried to talk myself into getting an Ultra or a Series 11, but for my use case there was no benefit.
