Apple Watch Series 6 GPS + Cellular, 44mm Space Grey Aluminium Case with Black Sport Band - Regular

Product Information

The watch offers information about this metric to help you interpret your data. It says that most people have a blood oxygen level between 95 and 100 percent. The first time I used this feature, the Series 6 said my blood oxygen saturation level was 99 percent. The second time I took a reading, it was after a three-mile beach run, and I was happy to see my SpO2 level was 100 percent.

In the box with the watch, Apple includes a charging cable, but you don't get a USB power adapter. Apple says it made this decision to help the environment, and it will have the same impact as eliminating 50,000 cars from the roads. DesignThe watch uses data from the barometric pressure sensor, GPS, and nearby Wi-Fi networks to determine your exact location and update your elevation on the fly. You can also add your elevation as a complication on the watch face.

As with other Apple Watch models, you navigate the Series 6 with swipes to scroll and move, and taps to select. To see your notifications, swipe down from the top edge of the screen. To see your battery level and access additional controls like Do Not Disturb, swipe up from the bottom of the screen. I found this feature useful, even in flat Florida. I added the elevation complication to my watch face, and it was interesting to see it change in real time, especially as I approached the beach near my house, which in certain areas is below sea level, according to the Series 6. When you start a blood oxygen scan, you'll see a 15-second countdown timer on the screen along with a relaxing blue and red graphic. After 15 seconds, your blood oxygen saturation percentage will appear onscreen. You can also view blood oxygen measurements in the Health app on your iPhone.I really like this feature, and when I'm testing other wearables, I miss it every time I wash my hands. I find that the countdown timer is sometimes accidentally triggered when I'm washing fruit and vegetables in the sink, but I just take it as a sign to wash again. The standout feature here is a new sensor that can measure the oxygen saturation of your blood, also known as SpO2. This metric indicates how well your circulatory and respiratory systems are delivering oxygenated blood to your body. Your SpO2 reading alone can't diagnose COVID-19, but as the Yale School of Medicine advises, a reading below 90 percent may warrant a trip to the emergency room. Apple Watch Series 9 has a water resistance rating of 50 metres under ISO standard 22810:2010. This means that it may be used for shallow-water activities like swimming in a pool or ocean. However, Apple Watch Series 9 should not be used for scuba diving, waterskiing, or other activities involving high-velocity water or submersion below shallow depth. Water resistance is not a permanent condition and can diminish over time. For additional information, see support.apple.com/en‑gb/HT205000. Changes in the new Apple Watch Series 6 are not only noticeable on the inside. Apple have gone a step further this time around and designed a watch that appeals to all tastes. There are more colour options to choose from (blue and red), and the housing is available in different materials. A wide variety of straps are also on offer, some of which are crafted from a single piece for a custom fit on any wrist -- the Solo Loop. Cheap Apple Watch?
