connection on T-Mobile will likely have double or triple the speeds of a 4G link.
Although Verizon’s millimeter-wave is faster, it’s still available to only a tiny
number of people. T-Mobile is poised to expand mid-band further in 2022, putting
Verizon and AT&T on notice.

SMARTWATCH
APPLE WATCH SERIES 7
$399.99 EDITORS’ CHOICE
The Series 7 is Apple’s most attractive and durable wearable yet. It offers all the
health, safety, and lifestyle features of its predecessor but with a larger display
that’s easier to read, improved dust protection and crack resistance, and a
redesigned charging system that takes less time to juice up. Though a minor
update from the Series 6, the seventh generation’s refinements make an already
outstanding smartwatch more practical for everyday tasks such as reading and
responding to texts, checking the time when your wrist is down, tracking your
outdoor activities, and monitoring your sleep.

FITNESS TRACKER
FITBIT CHARGE 5
$179.95 EDITORS’ CHOICE
The Fitbit Charge 5 offers more bang for your buck than any other fitness tracker
we’ve tested. In addition to the excellent workout and sleep-tracking features of
its predecessor, this version boasts an electrodermal activity (EDA) sensor that
measures small electrical changes in your skin’s sweat level to track your body’s
response to stress, along with an electrocardiogram (ECG) app that checks for
signs of atrial fibrillation (AFib), an irregular heart rhythm that can lead to blood
clots, stroke, heart failure, and other serious complications. The Charge 5 sports
an AMOLED color touch screen and a metal case, design upgrades that make it
a wearable you actually want to wear.
