Apple Watch Series 5 vs Series 4 - Full Comparison! By Max Tech

Hey guys this is Vadim with max tech, and this right here is the Apple Watch Series 5, and today we're going to be comparing all the little differences to the Apple Watch Series 4 all right. So let's get this thing. Unboxed! Take all this off. Don't need that okay, so take out these flaps, and it looks like we're getting the same presentation as last year. We've got the band right here. It's always a little of pain, get off what, and we have this nice little fabric on the outside I'm, not seeing any differences so far, and if I just put it side-by-side, it looks to be basically the same, so we're taking a look at both of these cases.

I literally, cannot find any difference by the way. This is the gold stainless steel on both of these the series 4 in the series 5 and now, let's unbox the band right here, the same band, the same color as before, just upgrading to series, 5, and I'll tell you guys why in just a minute, alright, so we're in the pairing in let's scan this code, there you go, but man I've got to say both of these look perfect. Definitely go with the chain. Link band looks amazing with the same width, steel. So the series 5 is now set up, and I have them both side-by-side and the display is off on the series 4, but you guys can probably tell that the series 5 has the always-on display now watch as I tap both of them.

Now you get the bright white on the series 5 and when you turn them off, it turns to black. You just get a very dimly lit watch face, so you can see the clock all the time, which is really, really amazing. I know a lot of people really wanted just one feature and that one feature was the always-on display. So you can't really get mad at Apple for not changing that much, because this one thing alone is gonna, get a lot of people to upgrade or people to switch back to an Apple Watch just for the always-on display. So I'll just do this a couple more times for you guys, so you can see the difference, and obviously it's a lot more convenient to be able to see this information.

Here's another one that looks to be newest a gradient watch face. So what it does is. Basically you have the seconds minutes and hours and there's this little shadow that moves, even though there's not an arm for the seconds. It's actually cool, because if you look at it is gets really, really dim, but you can still see it when it turns off. We got all these different colors that we can switch between really cool turquoise.

You can change this style. Let's see, oh well, look at that! That's really cool full screen circular, here's another one. It's called their Meridian watch face and I think this is probably one of my favorite watch faces. It just looks so classic, especially with the always on display, and you can change the dial color from black to white. You know it can change the colors of the text, which is really cool.

You can see it in the complications right there and, finally, you can change up and adjust the complications there you go. That is a really cool watch face. You also get modular compact, so you have this nice little layout, which is perfect for weather and other complications that show more things on the display and, let's customize it. You can change it from digital to analog, which is I, think pretty cool, and you could change the color I like this large section for the complications, because it shows a lot more than the small ones, so yeah, definitely a really cool watch face. So obviously the main selling point of this series 5 is the always-on display.

So you think that, because it's always on that, it uses up a lot of battery life, and you're going to get worse battery life than the series 4. But that's actually not true, because Apple did some trickery in there, and they increase the battery life. Basically, what they did is they allowed the screen to refresh from 60 Hertz down to 1 so because of that it's saving a lot of battery life, and they may have also increased the battery size as well. So what you can actually do is you can go into the settings, and you can turn off the always-on display if you want to most people, probably won't, but, as you guys can see right here in the display and brightness settings, you have the always-on options right here that you don't have on that series 4, and you have the options to hide sensitive complications. So if there are any complications with calendar appointments messages or anything like that, it's not going to show it when it's off, so nobody can sneak and look at any sensitive information.

So you can turn that option on and right here you can turn off always-on, and this is just got out of there and, as you guys can see, it starts to act just like the series for- and at this point it's almost identical to this series for except because the always-on display is now off. You actually might see a lot more battery life, but I am gonna, go back and turn it on, because it's awesome all right. So let's say you're using an app, and you don't touch it for a few seconds. What's going to happen is that instead of turning off, it's actually going to fade to darkness and the clock is going to appear. So, as you guys can see the time 3:40 just popped up instead of turning off and if you tap back, it goes back into the app instead of being the watch face.

Now, if you let that happen, and you turn it off, it goes back to the watch face and within the new Meridian watch face. We actually have the brand-new compass app. That comes exclusively to the Apple Watch Series. Five I don't know how many people are going to use it, maybe if you're adventuring in the wilderness, but other than that, there's really not that much use for it. To be completely honest, let's see what happens when we allow it to turn off so, as you guys can see it kind of fades back the time could pop up just like that and comes back so in all reality, unless you really really really care about the always-on display, there's really no reason to upgrade I think the processor is actually basically identical to the one in the series.

Four there's not that much different, it's just that always-on display and the brand-new watch faces other than that. There's really no reason to upgrade guys.
