I’d like a smart watch that tracks running, biking, and swimming distances and heart rate data. I’m already team iphone, so would apple watch be worth it for these purposes?

    Yes - pretty avid runner (around 40-50miles a week) and recently moved from a series 8 to an ultra 2

    The 8 was excellent, the 6 and 3 before it were also great. The ultra is as you’d expect just better. Not in any overly obvious way but just insanely better battery life, and a programmable button which is great for lapping or pausing while out - also with it now being cellular (all my others were not) I don’t need to take my massive TV sized phone out.

    Apples built in tracking has improved greatly in the last few years - but I’m a true convert to WorkOutDoors as an app due to the limitless customisation for watch screens, ability to load in GPX route files for on watch navigation, and downloadable / streamable map data on watch.
