Pavel Jelic In recent days, in connection with the September conference, there was often talk about the arrival of the new Apple Watch Series 6. After all, this was prophesied by a number of well-known leakers, who also described potential news. And finally we got it. On the occasion of today's Apple Event conference, the Californian giant has just now presented the upcoming sixth generation Apple Watch, which brings perfect news with it.

The entire presentation of the new Apple Watch was started by Tim Cook, directly from Apple Park. Right at the beginning, we received a shorter summary of what Tim Cook himself, together with other users, use the Apple Watch for. Nowadays, on Apple Watch, you can view the weather, read news, news, be on time everywhere thanks to the calendar and much more. In addition, the Apple Watch can be used to control HomeKit devices - Tim Cook mentions, for example, opening the garage door, unlocking the door, turning on the lights and playing music. In short and simply, the Apple Watch is one of the most popular watches in the world, also thanks to the fact that it can save a life, thanks to the possibility to notify of a low or high heart rate, or thanks to the possibility of performing an ECG that can detect atrial fibrillation. Cook specifically mentioned several people whose lives have been changed by the Apple Watch.
Apple Watch Series 6 is here!
With the arrival of the Apple Watch Series 6, we saw several new colors - specifically, the Series 6 will be available in blue, gold, dark black and red PRODUCT(RED). In addition to the color, of course, quite expectedly, the Series 6 came with a new sensor for measuring heart activity. Thanks to this new sensor, it is possible to measure the oxygen saturation of the blood - it only takes 15 seconds to measure these values. The measurement of blood oxygen saturation is possible thanks to infrared light, when the color of the blood is recognized, and then the blood oxygen saturation value is determined. Apple Watch Series 6 can also measure blood oxygen saturation while sleeping and generally in the background. This is a very important value that must be followed for the proper functioning of a person as such. To monitor blood oxygen saturation, we will see the Blood Oxygen application in Series 6.

Technology and hardware
You must be interested in what technologies the new Series 6 is "crammed" with. Specifically, we received a new main chip with the designation S6. According to Apple, this is based on the A13 Bionic processor currently found in the iPhone 11, the S6 is only perfectly modified for the Series 6. In numbers, this processor is 20% more powerful than the Series 5. In addition to the new processor, we also got an improved Always -On the display, which is now up to 2,5 times brighter in wrist-hung mode. The Series 6 is then able to track real-time altitude, which they then record.
New dials together with straps
We also got new watch faces, which Apple says are the most personal part of the Apple Watch. The GMT dial shows the times in different countries, the Chronograf Pro has also been improved, and we will also see new dials called Typograph, Count Up and Memoji. But it doesn't stop at the dials - Apple has also come up with brand new straps. The first of these is the silicone Solo Loop strap without fastening, which will be available in several sizes and seven colors. This strap is very durable, simple and stylish. If you prefer more "complicated" straps, then the new Braided Solo strap made of braided silicone is just for you, and new Nike straps and Hermès straps were also introduced.

Great "parenting" features
Apple Watch Series 6 will then also come with a new Family Setup function, thanks to which it is possible to easily monitor your children. You won't need an iPhone to connect the "kids" Apple Watch, but you can pair it directly with your iPhone. In addition, the Schooltime mode is also new for children, thanks to which they can achieve better concentration. Unfortunately, both of these modes are only available in selected countries, and despite the fact that we will soon see an expansion, they are limited to the Apple Watch Series 6 with a mobile data connection. The price of the Apple Watch Series 6 is set at $399.
