On September 15, Apple held its online Apple event in Apple Park. As previously disclosed, the iPhone 12 wasn’t on the menu, but the event brought some update to its Apple Watch and iPad series. For Apple Watch, Apple announced the Apple Watch Series 6 and the Watch SE.

Apple Watch Series 6

The Apple Watch Series 6 is identical in design to the Series 5, but there are some notable health-related features along with a faster chip for better performance.

Apple Watch Series 6 is equipped with a new dual-core processor based on A13 Bionic in iPhone 11. The upgraded S6 System in Package (SiP) runs up to 20 percent faster, allowing apps to also launch 20 percent faster, while maintaining the same all-day 18-hour battery life. Additionally, Apple Watch Series 6 features the U1 chip and Ultra Wideband antennas.

An enhanced Always-On Retina display on Apple Watch Series 6 is up to 2.5 times brighter than Apple Watch Series 5 outdoors when the user’s wrist is down, making it much easier to see a watch face in bright sunlight. When their wrist is down, the user can also now access Notification Center and Control Center, tap on complications, and swipe to change faces without having to wake their watch screen.

The always-on altimeter provides real-time elevation all day long by using a new, more power-efficient barometric altimeter. This feature is said to allow for the detection of small elevation changes above ground level, up and down to the measurement of 1 foot.

Apple Watch Series 6 expands the health capabilities of previous Apple Watch models with a new feature that conveniently measures the oxygen saturation of the user’s blood, so they can better understand their overall fitness and wellness. By the way, the normal blood oxygen saturation value of human body is more than 95%. When the detected number is lower than 95%, you need to see a doctor as soon as possible.
