Current Apple Watch Lineup

All three current Apple Watch models — Series 11, Ultra 3, and SE 3 — run the S10 SiP. The chip difference between them is zero; what separates the models is the case material, display size, sensors (blood oxygen, depth gauge on Ultra), and battery capacity. If you're choosing based on performance alone, any current model will deliver the same experience.
