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. Charge times are from 0–80% and 0–100% using the included Apple Watch Magnetic Fast Charging USB‑C Cable. Testing conducted by Apple in August 2022 using pre‑production Apple Watch Ultra (GPS + Cellular) paired with an iPhone; all devices tested with pre‑release software, Apple Watch Magnetic Fast Charging USB‑C Cable (Model A2515) and Apple 20W USB‑C Power Adapter (Model A2305). Charge time varies with region, settings and environmental factors; actual results will vary. Compatible hardware and software required. Not all content available in Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos. There are no categories to dig into, or long lists of tailored recommendations, just a short list of seemingly-random options, and while we like the idea of being able to grab a new app without needing to reach for our phone, it doesn’t really feel like it’s worth the effort of doing so on the small screen when the larger iPhone can do the job so much more effectively.

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?The Apple Watch 6 is the showcase for the 7th version of Apple’s wearable operating system, but the usual caveats apply: the same features (blood oxygen monitoring excepted) are also coming to the new Apple Watch SE, and will be rolled out to every device from the Watch 3 onwards. Well, we always had it connected to a phone or Wi-Fi all day, and we took it running, controlled music, used apps – and we still always got over 24 hours of use before needing to reach for the charger. There’s no information on whether you spent time in deep sleep, light sleep or REM, nor any correlation with bedtimes, or how stressed you were during the day –these are fast becoming standard features on other fitness wearables, so we expected more from Apple here. Perhaps the watch's biggest strength remains the App Store, which lets you browse and install apps right on the watch itself. With more than 20,000 Apple Watch apps available, it easily has the largest, highest-quality third-party selection of any wearable.

We’ve been wearing both the Watch SE and the Watch 6 for the testing period, and rarely did they both fire at the same time when we turned on a tap and began scrubbing up – there was often a five-second disparity. The Samsung Galaxy Watch3 offered similar battery life in testing, but the Fitbit Sense lasted around three days. We noticed last year that the addition of the always-on display had a real impact on battery life, and while the new S6 chipset inside the Watch 6 has definitely improved the power efficiency, it hasn’t solved some key issues. So it's not a new feature, but the question is how Apple is implementing it into the new watch, and whether it can be truly useful, especially when the world is facing a respiratory disease-based pandemic.A subscription is required for Oceanic+. Available on the App Store. Always follow diving protocols, and dive with a companion and have a secondary device. However, combined with the ability to take an ECG and monitor your heart's regular output, it's still a comfort, and those with heart conditions would probably still gravitate towards the Watch 6 as a result.
