Apple Watch Series 8 and Watch SE specifications, features
Apple Watch Series 8 and Watch Ultra have been finally launched at the company’s hardware event. The new smartwatch Series 8 ships with features like fall detection, sleep tracking, heart rate sensor, ECG, and abnormal heart rhythm notifications. The Watch SE 2nd generation ships with the new S8 chipset just like the Watch Series 8.
Apple added female cycle tracking three years ago and with Watch Series 8, Apple is taking this a step forward with a new temperature sensor that offers deeper and better insight into female health data, such as ovulation. The sensor collects the body temperature during nighttime since the blood vessels dilate when you are sleeping, thereby increasing the blood flow.
Apple Watch Ultra features
As for the Apple Watch Ultra, the company says it is designed to push the boundaries and is aimed at users who appreciate outdoor advanced water sports and endurance training. For outdoors activities, the GPS feature plays a key role, so Apple says that it has added a new precision dual frequency GPS solution that in addition to L1 also includes the latest L5 frequency. The new ‘Action Button’ lets you customise with different tasks and even allows you to quickly start a workout with just a press of a button.
The Action button can instantly begin workouts and move users to the next interval of a Multisport workout. The on-wrist operating temperature sensor is designed to help explore the most extreme and remote locations, from -20° C to 55° C.4
To optimise for evening conditions, the interface turns to red for better visibility in the dark when using the Wayfinder face.
