Apple Watch Series 10 unveiled with bigger displays and new Jet Black color

Ten years after the original Apple Watch was released, Apple announced the all-new Apple Watch Series 10 during the iPhone 16 event . This wearable features an all-new display in 42 and 46mm. With an all-new wide-angle OLED display, it’s 40% brighter when seen from an angle. It maintains the same mechanisms for connecting the bands, but Apple was able to make it thinner than previous iterations.

Apple says the Apple Watch Series 10 charges 80% in only 30 minutes. It is available in new Jet Black, Rose Gold, and Silver. A more premium model is available in Natural Titanium, Gold, and Dark Slate Gray. These devices are 20% lighter than the Apple Watch Series 9. One reason for that is the new re-engineered speaker system, which is 30% smaller. You can even play music and podcasts through it.

This new processor is also key for sleep apnea detection. The company says it uses sleep and breathing patterns in addition to an accelerometer to estimate whether someone has the condition. Although Apple will expand it to the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2. The company expects FDA approval very soon.
