As well as the iPhone X, Apple has also recently announced the new Apple Watch Series 3.
If you were hoping for a major redesign, you'll be a tad disappointed. The biggest update coming to the Apple Watch Series 3 is a cellular connection, allowing you to use the smart watch free from an iPhone or WiFi network.
You'll even be able to make voice calls over cellular, again, without an iPhone present.
This is really useful for people who use their Apple Watch for running, and hate taking their iPhones with them, but you'll be able to use apps such as Whatsapp, and even stream from Apple Music.
Yes, this does mean you'll need a separate contract with your network, but not another SIM or another phone number.
The Apple Watch Series 3 with Cellular will the exclusive to EE in the UK (at launch). You'll need an iPhone 6 or later, and be on an EE Pay Monthly or SIM Only plan.
It'll cost you can extra £5 per month to add Apple Watch data to your contract. We don't think that's too bad, and certainly could be worse.
