"Are you buying a smartwatch for its health features? Apple announced at its September iPhone event that the Apple Watch Series 11 offers hypertension detection and will receive FDA clearance by the end of the month. It can't perform blood pressure readings, but it does monitor your blood vessels' reaction to heartbeats during sleep. It monitors your blood pressure for 30 days using the watch's optical heart sensor to deliver an average rating that is either within range or above the threshold."
"Apple infuses AI into several aspects of its smartwatch -- but you wouldn't really notice if you weren't paying attention. Thanks to an advanced prediction algorithm, you'll get more relevant Smart Stack suggestions that take your historical location and watch activity into account. If Apple Watch registers users recording a pilates workout every time they visit a studio, the Smart Stack will more regularly suggest initiating a Pilates workout on the Workout app."
The Apple Watch Series 11 introduces hypertension detection with expected FDA clearance and uses the optical heart sensor to monitor blood vessels' reaction during sleep and produce a 30-day average rating. If the 30-day rating is above the threshold, users are advised to bring the collected data to a doctor for review. The watch adds Sleep Scores, longer battery life, and ships with WatchOS 26 features. Apple applies subtle AI across the watch, including an advanced prediction algorithm that offers more relevant Smart Stack suggestions based on historical location and watch activity.
