That, as you know, wasn't the case with the Apple Watch Series 10. Still, Apple could’ve marked the watch’s 10th anniversary in a big way with Apple Intelligence, turning it into a futuristic sci-fi gadget that even James Bond would coolly use on his missions. Unfortunately, Apple dropped the ball in more ways than one.

The Apple Watch Series 10 doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it does bring a series of genuinely helpful features.

Just like the iPhone X, the Apple Watch Series X—as it was rumored to be called—was expected to mark a major milestone for Apple’s decade-old wearable. It was rumored to bring radical changes, including a new flatter design with a much thinner case along with a new magnetic band attachment mechanism.
