As an Apple smartwatch enthusiast, I get asked constantly: "Should I save money and buy the Series 3, or is the Series 6 worth the upgrade?"

Well with over three years of real-world usage across both models, I‘ve compiled the ultimate 2000+ word guide examining how the Apple Watch Series 3 and Series 6 stack up across all the variables that matter most.
We‘ll compare specs, app functionality, health tracking capabilities, pricing, connectivity and much more – including real user feedback on each model. By the end, you‘ll know exactly which Apple Watch fits your needs and budget. Let‘s dive in!
Overview
First, a quick overview of the Apple Watch lineup and where Series 3 and Series 6 fit:
Apple Watch Series 3 – Originally released September 2017. Apple‘s entry-level smartwatch offering core features at an affordable price point.
Apple Watch Series 6 – Apple‘s current flagship wearable packed with cutting-edge health sensors and safety features. Significantly more expensive but delivers best-in-class wellness tracking capabilities.
