Apple details Apple Watch Series 10 and its features

Apple's next smartwatch is expected to have a larger display and several new features.

The Apple Watch Series 10, unveiled during its “Glowtime” event, will feature “up to 30 percent more active screen area” than the Series 4, 5, and 6, and “up to 9 percent larger” display than the Series 7, 8, and 9, Apple announced on Monday.

Apple says it was able to achieve this feat without significantly increasing the case size by using rounded corners and a wider aspect ratio. The Series 10 comes in two case sizes: 42mm and 46mm, which is 1mm larger than the Series 9.

Apple has also reduced the thickness of its smartwatch with the Series 10, designing it to be about 10% thinner than the previous model.

“Apple Watch Series 10 builds on a decade of breakthrough innovation and delivers our most advanced version ever, with even greater intelligence, our largest wearable display and a slimmer, sleeker design than ever before,” Jeff Williams, Apple's chief operating officer, said in a press release.

Apple also said the Series 10 features an upgraded charging coil that “allows users to charge the battery to 80% in about 30 minutes.”

Another notable feature added to the latest Apple Watch is sleep apnea notifications: According to Apple, the smartwatch will track “breathing disturbances” while you sleep, analyze them using a special algorithm, and send you a message.

The Series 10 runs on watchOS 11, which the company says includes a new app that shows “key health metrics overnight,” more customization options for the Activity Rings, upgrades to Smart Stacks, double-tap scrolling functionality, and more.

Apple has already started accepting preorders for the Series 10, and is set to officially launch the new smartwatch next weekend. The company said that the Series 10 watches will have different starting prices depending on the case material, ranging from $399 for the aluminum version to $699 for the titanium version.
