A quick photo review of the significantly thinner 'Apple Watch Series 10', including size comparisons with previous models and rivals
The Apple smartwatch ' Apple Watch Series 10 ', which has a larger display and a thinner body, was released on Friday, September 20, 2024. The pre-ordered Apple Watch Series 10 arrived at the GIGAZINE editorial department, so we first took a closer look at the appearance and compared the size with the previous generation model and rival models.
Apple Watch Series 10 - Apple (Japan)
The Apple Watch Series 10 package looks like this.
When the outer white cardboard was removed, a box containing the Apple Watch Series 10 body and a box containing the band were revealed.
I took out all the contents of the box. From the left, there is the Apple Watch Series 10 main unit, band, charging cable, and instruction manual.
This is what the Apple Watch Series 10 looks like. The Apple Watch Series 10 comes in 42mm and 46mm models, and I got the 42mm model this time. The case is made of aluminum and the finish is jet black.
The back side is equipped with various sensors and a band release button.
The left side is equipped with a speaker and air vent.
On the right side are the side button and the Digital Crown.
There are no buttons on the surface where the band is attached.
There is nothing on the other side either.
The 42mm model of Apple Watch Series 10 (left) and the 41mm model of Apple Watch Series 9 (right) look like this. The dimensions of the 42mm model of Apple Watch Series 10 are 42mm x 36mm x 9.7mm, and the 41mm model of Apple Watch Series 9 is 41mm x 35mm x 10.7mm.
Comparing the thickness from the side, you can see that the 42mm model of Apple Watch Series 10 (left) is thinner.
The weight of the 42mm model of the Apple Watch Series 10 (left) is 30g, and the 41mm model of the Apple Watch Series 9 (right) is 31g. Both cases are made of aluminum. The Apple Watch Series 10 has a larger display than the previous generation model, but the weight is kept light.

The Apple Watch Series 10 is thinner than the Pixel Watch 3.
This is what it looks like when you attach the band to the Apple Watch Series 10. This time I also purchased a rubber Solo Loop.
The 42mm model of the Apple Watch Series 10 can be fitted with a band of any of the following sizes: 42mm, 44mm, or 45mm, while the 46mm model can be fitted with a band of any of the following sizes: 44mm, 45mm, or 46mm.
When I tried to attach a '41mm model band' to the 42mm model of Apple Watch Series 10, which is not the applicable size, I was able to attach it without any problems, but there was a gap between the main body and the band fixing part.
A review article on the Apple Watch Series 10 will be published at a later date.
