Apple just introduced the new model of Apple Watch. The Apple Watch series 4, from which we have already seen some leaked previews, and which comes with a redesign and spectacular features.
The Apple Watch is focused on three pillars to improve our lives. Stay connected, stay active and stay healthy. And the Apple Watch series 4 has taken these pillars to the next level.
The Apple Watch is the world's best-selling watch, not only smart watch, but watch.
The new design is not radically different, but a redesign that maintains shape and style. In fact, the straps are still compatible. The screen is now larger, drawing closer to the edges and with rounded corners that make it appear that there is no limit on the screen.
Now the models are 40mm. and 44 mm., increasing from 38 and 42 mm. respectively. This size allows new watchfaces with much more information, like the new one with up to eight customizable complications.
Apple has also redesigned the Watchface modular to get the most out of the new screens. What's more, "Breathe" now becomes a Watchface with new relaxing and beautiful designs.
The digital crown has also been redesigned like the rest of the Apple Watch. Now, crown has haptic feedback when rotated and a new design by changing the red dot to a red ring on LTE models.
In the design stands out, between the button and the crown, the microphone, now located on the other side to separate it more from the speaker. This location and the new loudspeaker -up to 50% louder- will allow much clearer and more comfortable calls.
Of course, it has also improved on the inside. The Apple Watch series 4 has the new S4 chip with a 64 bit dual core processor that allows it to be up to twice as fast as the Apple Watch series 3.
In addition, They have added the new generations of accelerometer and gyroscope. Now they allow you to detect unexpected falls and even ask for help after them.
The rear has also changed. Now it is made of ceramic and sapphire crystal, which allow a better reading of the heart rate. The Apple Watch series 4 is capable of detecting low heart rates, as well as, surprisingly, detecting an atrial fabrication (AF).
But, if there is something that has left our mouths open, it is that, now, the Apple Watch is capable of taking an electrocardiogram (ECG) directly from your wrist and in 30 seconds. We simply have to open the app and touch the digital crown to get it. The ECG will be available on the iPhone and iPad even with general rhythm type diagnostics.
Still, it is clear that the ECG will take on all its relevance to be able to take it to our doctor. It's a single-lead EKG, but still the FDA has cleared the ECG and heart rate sensor Therefore, officially, it is a medical device allowed for OTC sale ("Over the counter", a term used mainly to define those medical devices that do not require a prescription to be dispensed, especially drugs).
The Apple Watch series 4 maintains 18 hours of battery life that had the Apple Watch series 3.
It will also come with a new gold steel color and the alliances with Nike and Hermès continue, arriving with new watchfaces very nice.
The Apple Watch will be available in Spain and with the LTE version also from Vodafone and Orange. Something that many expected as May water.
The official prices in dollars without taxes range from $ 399 for the non-LTE version, $ 499 for the LTE version and $ 279 for the maintained Apple Watch series 3.
It can be booked on September 14 and will arrive on September 21. WatchOS will be available for all compatible Apple Watch from September 15.
