The new contenders include the base model Series 11, the affordable SE 3, and the luxurious and rugged Ultra 3. While the Series 11 and Ultra 3 receive standout features including Hypertension Detection, Emergency SOS via satellite, increased battery life, and Sleep Scores, older smartwatches also got a facelift following the new product debut. Thanks to WatchOS 26, Apple Watches Series 9 and later and Ultra 2 and later get the same software as the latest lineup.

The Solo Loop band is made from liquid silicon rubber that Apple says is sweat and swimproof, and has been treated with UV light to make its finish feel smooth. It's available in several solid colors and hues to match your style. However, the Solo Loop is a single piece of material with no way to adjust its size, so you'll have to be sure it fits your wrist before you get one.

I'm not being rude, I'm saying this because I've found myself doing this too. I was genuinely excited when Apple unveiled the Touch Bar, the Dynamic Island, and Camera Control. It felt ground-breaking for precisely 4 minutes before I then reminded myself... the Touch Bar was first put on a Lenovo laptop 2 years before apple, the Dynamic Island is still larger than most hole-punch cameras, and the Camera Control, while great, doesn't beat the innovation that Sony's had in their 'camera phone' era.

Last year, Gallup surveyed Americans about their sleep habits. For the first time since polling began in 2001, it found that a majority of Americans said they'd feel better if they got more sleep. They aren't happy with their sleep quality and want to improve it. Enter the trusty sleep tracker. Smart rings, smartwatches, sleep earbuds, mattress monitors, and a long list of other sleep-tracking devices have flooded the market to address growing sleep needs.

Apple's baseline Apple Watch Series 11 is the smartwatch that hobbyist health trackers and small wrists should buy, with a starting price of $399.

Apple's new iPhone Air contains more recycled titanium than any of its predecessors, the company announced at the Tuesday Keynote. It's using 80 percent recycled titanium. The phone as a whole is made with 35 percent recycled material by weight, compared to 30 percent recycled material for the iPhone 17. The company's latest lineup of watches also boast higher proportions of recycled content.

Not only is this watch box sleek and useful (especially for traveling), but it can be personalized too. You can add the initials on the exterior to make them feel extra special. A timepiece on your wrist isn't always enough. This classic analog alarm clock has a retro, nostalgic feel that makes waking up in the morning feel a little bit better.

The Apple Watch 11C concept asks a compelling question: what if Cupertino decided to revisit that moment of accessible joy, only this time on your wrist? This isn't a real product (at least, not yet), but rather a playful reimagining that brings the "C" philosophy back to Apple's wearable lineup. The result looks as if it leaped off a Lisa Frank notebook and onto your arm, radiating the same energy that made the original 5C phones so memorable.

Apple has been marketing its newest smartwatches as being carbon-neutral for nearly two years now, with an array of rationales. It claims that clean energy for manufacturing, along with greener materials and shipping, lop around three-quarters off the carbon emissions for each model of the Apple Watch. The remaining emissions are offset by the purchase of carbon credits, according to Apple.

According to the court document shared by Bloomberg Law, Masimo has filed a lawsuit against the US CBP for reversing its January 2024 order that forced Apple to disable the Blood Oxygen measurement feature in the US. The company has filed a lawsuit in the US District Court of the District of Columbia, alleging that the US CBP, in its August 1 ruling, did not justify the reversal of its stand on the issue.

Apple Inc. is set to restore the blood oxygen tracking feature on its smartwatch in the US, following a years-long legal battle with Masimo Corp.

Blood oxygen data will now be measured and calculated on the user's paired iPhone, with results accessible only in the Respiratory section of the Health app.

The Straight Edge Link band in gold brings a striking presence to the wrist. Its rich finish and clean design echo the look of classic timepieces, giving the Apple Watch an upscale twist.
