Apple Watch 6! What is known about the new Apple watch
A few days remain until the alleged Apple presentation, at which, as expected, the new iPhone will not be presented, but the new Apple Watch - Apple Watch 6 may see the light of the day. Apple has already registered the updated watch, so we just have to hold our breath and wait. Apple updates its watch every year, and 2020 should be no exception. In this article, we have collected everything we know about the Apple Watch 6: what the new watch will be made of, the main features, the release date and much more.
What will the Apple Watch 6 be made of?
Apple is known for regularly adding or removing content used in the Apple Watch. Apple Watch Series 3 introduces a ceramic version that was not available on the Apple Watch Series 4. Ceramic is back in Apple Watch Series 5 with a new titanium version.
The Apple Watch Series 6 is expected to be made of aluminum, stainless steel, titanium and ceramic. Four different versions.
There was some speculation that the Apple Watch could soon get a cheap plastic version, like the popular iPhone 5c once had. The new entry-level watch could be a device for kids or newbies looking to try out an inexpensive Apple Watch.
Apple Watch 6 specifications
Until now, all generations of Apple Watch have been equipped with OLED displays. It has been speculated that Apple could switch to microLED in future Apple Watch. This will allow the display to consume less power, resulting in a longer time between charges. However, the latest post says Apple will not switch to microLED until 2023.
The Apple Watch 6 will likely come with a new battery. Two smaller batteries and one large watch battery have been registered with Apple in various countries.
At the same time, Cupertino also wants to change the production technology of the antenna for future watches, relying on liquid crystal polymers. This will improve the waterproof performance as the liquid crystal resins will improve the connection between the Digital Crown and the motherboard.
Apple Watch 6 features
Apple Watch 6 has a new "Kids Mode". Kids Mode will allow parents to connect an extra Apple Watch to their iPhone. This will allow them to easily track their child's whereabouts and enable them to contact family members. Kids Mode will also include a Screen Time feature that will allow parents to monitor their children's device use.
Apple Watch can perform an electrocardiogram using the Digital Crown starting with Apple Watch Series 4. The Apple Watch 2020 will improve the ECG function, you can take an ECG even if the user's heart rate is elevated. Also, the watch may finally have a function for determining oxygen in the blood.
Apple Watch will also be able to track sleep, although using this feature will require the user to be careful about charging Apple Watch.
A new leak claims that Apple Watch Series 6 will add mental health tracking, allowing the device to calculate the user's heart rate for signs of anxiety. Most likely, the innovations will also affect the sporting capabilities of the watch, but nothing is known about them yet.
When is the Apple Watch 6 coming out?
Apple Watch is usually announced alongside the annual new iPhone in September. There is some speculation that the iPhone launch could be delayed until October, which could delay the announcement of the new Apple Watch.
However, there is information from insiders that the Apple Watch Series 6 will be released in the week starting September 7, along with the next generation iPad models.
How much does Apple Watch 6 cost?
