The upcoming Apple Watch Series 10 (or possibly Series X) is generating a lot of buzz, with expectations for its release this September. Rumors suggest that Apple might be gearing up for a big reveal this year, possibly marking a significant milestone in the device’s evolution.
Here are some key highlights to look forward to:
-
Health Features: The new Apple Watch was rumored to include two groundbreaking health-related features: monitoring blood pressure and detecting sleep apnea. However, there have been some setbacks with implementing these features due to design issues.
-
Blood Pressure Monitoring: Instead of providing individual blood pressure readings, the watch will measure your baseline and alert you if your blood pressure exceeds that level. Users can then opt to get a reading from a dedicated machine or at a nearby pharmacy.
-
Sleep Apnea Detection: The watch’s sensor for monitoring sleep apnea requires tracking the user’s blood saturation level, similar to what a pulse oximeter does. However, complications have arisen due to patent disputes surrounding this technology.
- Future Innovations: Apple is also making strides in developing a non-invasive blood glucose monitor, considered a game-changer for smartwatch manufacturers. Additionally, the company is exploring using rigid plastic as an alternative to aluminum in the lower-cost Apple Watch SE model.
As we eagerly anticipate the unveiling of the next Apple Watch, it’s clear that Apple is pushing boundaries in wearable health technology. Stay tuned for more updates on this highly anticipated release!
