What’s So Special About The New Apple’s Watch?
Apple’s latest smartwatch has the ability to read your heart’s electrical signal and detect irregular heart rhythms using the built-in electrical heart sensor. So, this is basically a mobile ECG (Electrocardiogram) unit and can help diagnose heart disease.
It will also detect falls by analyzing wrist trajectory and impact acceleration and will call emergency services if you’re immobile for one minute. The watch runs version 5 of Apple Watch’s operating system, which improves fitness, health tracking, and well-being.
The Apple Watch series 4 comes with a next-generation S4, 64 – bit dual core processor that enables it to perform two times faster than the previous series. The Series 4’s display area is 30% larger than that of the Series 3. Resolution is 368 x 448 pixels, compared to Fitbit Versa’s 300 x 300 pixels. It also features an 18-hour all day battery life that allows for outdoor workouts, yoga, running and bike rides.
