The rumor mill is replete with good news for Apple Watch fans as the tech giant stepped up the game further when it comes to the features and functionality of the Series 6. This year, Apple is getting ready to unveil features that health-conscious users will find useful.
One of the prominent features of the sixth generation Apple Watch is its blood oxygen monitoring, Mac Rumors revealed. Users will be able to monitor their blood oxygen levels, giving them ample warning when it is time to slow down or speed up, or when they should consider visiting a doctor. A level between 95 and 100 percent is within normal range. Falling below or above this number is a cause for concern.
The iOS 14 was reportedly programmed to include sending notifications to the user whenever blood oxygen levels fall below the healthy range. Users of Apple Watch Series 6 who suffer from a cardiac problem or a respiratory problem can quickly get help. With the ongoing pandemic, good monitoring of vital signs plays an essential role, especially that the coronavirus is known to attack the respiratory system.
Performance improvements are expected in the Apple Watch Series 6. It is also expected that this would have a system on a chip. Its cellular speeds would see significant improvement as well including its WIFI.
Although there were talks that it will have a 303.8 mAh, there seems to be huge and significant difference when compared to the battery of the Series 5 models. In terms of battery for the sixth gen, though, only software improvement may amp it up.
Another great rumored feature of the Apple Watch 6 is its alleged mental health capabilities. It could reportedly detect those who experience high levels of stress and also panic attacks. When this happens, the watch can give breathing exercises so that people can calm down. The watch, to come up with an analysis on this matter, must use existing data such as reading heart rate and blood oxygen levels.
Most of the time, new Apple Watch is released alongside iPhone. However, this 2020, the delays in the iPhone release also made the launch dates of the Apple Watch seem unclear. Jon Prosser, a known source of Apple leaks, revealed that the company will be introducing the Apple Watch anytime from Sept. 7, Tom's Guide reported. However, if in case it does not happen next week, Mac Otakara, a Japanese site, said it believes that the watch will be unveiled in October, together with the new iPhone 12.
