Alongside the new iPhone 16 series, Apple has also released the new Apple Watch Series 10 in its annual September event.
The new Apple Watch Series 10 has the biggest screen on an Apple Watch ever — about 30% bigger than Series 6 and 75% more than the Series 3, letting you see more and type better with the on-screen keyboard. It’s also 40% brighter for better visibility outdoors and off angle. Plus, the variants are now 1mm larger: 41mm and 45mm.
It managed to have a thinner design thanks to the new S10 SiP processor that has a 4-core Neural Engine that enables features like on-device Siri, dictation, automatic workout detection, double-tap gesture, Crash Detection, Fall Detection, and more.
Plus, the hero color for this year is called Jet Black for the aluminum model. It is joined by the Silver and Rose Gold. Meanwhile, the fancier Titanium variant comes in Natural Titanium, Gold, and Slate.
Apple also upgraded the sensors so they track your health and activities better. It also has a new water temperature sensor and depth gauge for more detailed data on your swim workouts and water activities. The Oceanic+ app is also now available to the Series 10.
Other quality-of-life improvements include a better Smart Stack that can intelligently curate the information you need, and the Translate app coming to the watch.
Apple also made the charging coils bigger, making the Series 10 the fastest-charging Apple Watch ever. The company claims a 15-minute charge can already provide 8 hours of sleep tracking. Plus, a 30-minute charge already gives 80% of battery life.
One of the reasons Apple made the Series 10 thinner is so you can comfortably wear it to your sleep. When you do, it will enable a new feature that will help identify signs of sleep apnea.
The new Apple Watch Series 10 is now listed on the Apple Philippines website with the prices below. Availability details are yet to be confirmed.
