The Apple Watch Series 10 will alert users to sleep apnea, which is a major health condition impacting more than a billion people worldwide.

Apple Watch Series 10: Sleep Apnea Detection To New Polished Titanium Finish - What's New?

Apple CEO Tim Cook on Monday kicked off the ‘It’s Glowtime’ event with the announcement of the Apple Watch Series 10. Apple said not only is the Watch Series 10’s display larger than Watch Ultra’s, it is also thinner than the Watch series 9.

The Apple Watch Series 10 now also comes in a new Polished Titanium finish. Apple says, because of that, the watch is not only thinner, but also lighter.

Apple CEO Tim Cook said in his key note, “artificial intelligence and machine learning have been essential in delivering so many of the features and experiences” we love today.

“In June, we launched Apple intelligence, our powerful new personal intelligence system, which will have an incredible impact… we are thrilled to introduce the first iPhones designed from the ground up for Apple intelligence and its breakthrough capabilities.”

“Often you look at your watch from an angle, like while you’re walking typing on the keyboard, or when your hand is resting in your lap. So, we made the display on series 10 up to 40% brighter when viewed from an angle, which improves visibility and makes it easier to read your watch with a quick glance. We also developed wide angle OLEDs to be extremely power efficient, which allows the display to update once a second and Always On mode instead of just once a minute,” says Apple.

Apple Watch Series 10: Sleep Apnea Detection

The Apple Watch Series 10 will alert users to sleep apnea, which is a major health condition impacting more than a billion people worldwide.

“To detect sleep apnea, the Apple Watch uses the accelerometer to monitor a new metric during sleep called breathing disturbances. You can view your nightly values in the health app, which can also help you understand the restfulness of your sleep every 30 days. Apple Watch will analyse your breathing disturbance data and notify you if it shows consistent signs of moderate to severe sleep apnea,” Dr Sumbul Ahmed Desai says.

Thinnest Apple Watch Ever

The Apple Watch Series 10 comes in both aluminium and polished titanium finish. Apple also claims it is its “fastest charging Apple Watch yet”. It is priced starting $399 for GPS and $499 for GPS + Cellular version.
