Why the Apple Watch Series 10’s fast charging tech is a bigger deal than the iPhone 16
Apple introduced all the expected new products during its September event on Monday, including the one I'll buy first. I train for and run marathons, and the Apple Watch Series 10 will be my next purchase. I use the Apple Watch SE 2 right now, and it's been a great companion for the last couple of years. However, battery health has dropped to 80%, forcing me to recharge it twice daily.
Before Apple's event, I wanted the Apple Watch Series 10 for the extra health tracking features the main wearable in Apple's lineup would offer compared to the Watch SE. The improved battery life was just an additional perk. But now that Apple unveiled the Series 10, I know I'm getting an incredible battery upgrade.
The Apple Watch Series 10 needs just 30 minutes to recharge from 0% to 80%, making it the fastest-charging Apple Watch ever. The Series 9 requires 45 minutes to reach the same percentage. None of Apple's iPhone models can reach 80% in 30 minutes. If you ask me, it's an even bigger deal than the lackluster iPhone 16 that Apple unveiled on Monday.
