Apple unveiled three new Apple Watch configurations on Tuesday. Its annual hardware event: Apple Watch Series 11, Apple Watch Ultra 3 and Apple Watch SE 3.
Apple Watch Series 11
The Apple Watch Series 11 can remind you of possible high blood pressure. It uses data from an optical heart sensor and looks for chronic hypertension by analyzing the blood vessels’ response to heartbeat. The algorithm works in the background, reviews data within 30 days and will notify you whether to recognize hypertension patterns.
Apple said it plans to notify more than one million people of undiagnosed hypertension in the first year alone.
The watch can also help you understand the quality of your sleep and how to make it more repaired. With the new sleep score, your sleep quality is affected by several factors such as sleep time, sleep time, consistency, how often you wake up, and how much time you spend at each sleep stage.
It also made its debut with 5G connectivity, improving existing LTE connectivity options. It uses less battery and offers more coverage.
The Apple Watch Series 11 now has a battery life of up to 24 hours and is grey in black, silver, rose gold and new space. It starts at $399.
Apple Watch Ultra 3
The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is launching with a larger screen and satellite connection. Like Series 11, it also gets 5G connectivity and hypertension notifications.
