Apple Watch SE 3 launched with Advanced Health Capabilities, Always-On Display, and Fast Charging

Apple today introduced the next generation of Apple Watch SE, offering remarkable health, fitness, connectivity, and safety features, and the powerful capabilities of the S10 chip, at an incredible value. Apple Watch SE 3 delivers a more advanced set of health features than the previous generation — including sleep score, retrospective ovulation estimates, sleep apnea notifications, and wrist temperature sensing for richer Vitals app data — plus a robust set of fitness features to provide daily motivation. The S10 chip powers an Always-On display, the double tap and wrist flick gestures, on-device Siri, and fast charging. watchOS 26 introduces a fresh look with Liquid Glass, Workout Buddy powered by Apple Intelligence, new watch faces, and more. Always-On Display and Fast ChargingThe display on Apple Watch is central to every interaction, from viewing a notification, to taking a quick glance at workout metrics. With the S10 chip, Apple Watch SE 3 now features an Always-On display, allowing users to conveniently view the time and glance at notifications without raising their wrist or tapping the display. The cover glass is 4x more resistant to cracks than the previous generation, featuring a custom, proprietary grade of Ion-X (ion-exchanged strengthened) glass, the toughest glass available in a smartwatch.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/apple-watch-se-3.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple Watch SE 3" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/apple-introduces-apple-watch-se-3/article/Apple-Watch-SE-3-hero-250909_big.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple Watch SE 3" width="599" /></a>Even with the addition of the Always-On display, Apple Watch SE 3 offers all-day, 18-hour battery life, and also features fast charging for the first time. Apple Watch SE 3 now charges up to 2x faster than the previous generation; charging for 15 minutes can add up to eight hours of battery for daily use, and it can charge to about 80 percent in 45 minutes.With a cellular plan, Apple Watch allows users to take calls, send messages, and even get help with emergency services when their iPhone isn’t with them. Meaningful Health InsightsBuilding on its powerful suite of core health features, Apple Watch SE 3 introduces sleep score, which helps users understand the quality of their sleep and how to make it more restorative. Fast charging makes it even easier for users to wear Apple Watch overnight to track their sleep, and sleep score adds to sleep insights including sleep duration, sleep stages, and other Vitals app data.Sleep quality is influenced by several factors, such as sleep duration, bedtime consistency, how often a person wakes up, and how much time is spent in each sleep stage. With sleep score, Apple Watch helps track each of these categories to offer users a transparent and easy-to-understand metric for their overall sleep quality. After each night, sleep score provides an overall score and classification in the Sleep app on Apple Watch, plus a clear breakdown of the most critical components so users know what to prioritize to improve their sleep.The scoring approach and prioritization algorithm of sleep score is informed by the latest guidance published by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, National Sleep Foundation, and World Sleep Society. Over 5 million nights of sleep data from the Apple Heart and Movement Study were used to develop and test the scoring algorithms.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/apple-watch-se-3.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple Watch SE 3" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/apple-introduces-apple-watch-se-3/article/Apple-Watch-SE-3-sleep-score-250909_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple Watch SE 3" width="599" /></a>Additionally, Apple Watch SE 3 offers:Wrist temperature sensing, which can provide insight into overall well-being and adds to the other key health metrics available in the Vitals app. Apple Watch uses two temperature sensors and an advanced algorithm to compensate for the temperature of a user’s environment.Retrospective ovulation estimates, which use wrist temperature data to estimate the likely day of ovulation after it has occurred and improve period predictions, which can be helpful for family planning.Sleep apnea notifications, which alert users if they show consistent signs of moderate to severe sleep apnea over a 30-day period. The algorithm analyzes accelerometer data to detect interruptions in regular respiratory patterns that are associated with sleep apnea.These features add to the core set of health features available on Apple Watch SE 3, including heart health notifications, Cycle Tracking, and cardio fitness, plus safety features like Fall Detection, Crash Detection, Emergency SOS, and Check In. Fitness Tracking and MotivationApple Watch offers daily fitness motivation, along with powerful insights into workouts, training, and more, across a variety of activities. The Activity app encourages users to close their three Activity rings — Move, Exercise, and Stand — by hitting personal, customizable daily goals. Users can also track a wide range of workouts with validated custom heart rate and calorie algorithms using the Workout app; stay motivated with Activity challenges and sharing; keep an eye on their progress with weekly summaries and trends; and monitor key fitness metrics like training load, cardio fitness, and cardio recovery.With watchOS 26, Apple Watch SE 3 features Workout Buddy, a first-of-its-kind fitness experience powered by Apple Intelligence that analyzes a user’s workout data and fitness history to deliver personalized, spoken motivation throughout their session, based on data like heart rate, pace, distance, Activity rings, personal fitness milestones, and more. Workout Buddy will be available starting in English across some of the most popular workout types, and is available on Apple Watch with Bluetooth headphones, with an Apple Intelligence-supported iPhone nearby.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/apple-watch-se-3.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple Watch SE 3" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/apple-introduces-apple-watch-se-3/article/Apple-Watch-SE-3-sleep-apnea-notifications-250909_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple Watch SE 3" width="599" /></a>Additionally, the new layout of the Workout app makes it easier to customize workouts with Workout Views, custom workouts, Pacer, Race Route, and more. Apple Watch users can now conveniently view and create workouts in the Fitness app on iPhone, including custom workouts, and then easily access them in the Workout app on Apple Watch.To add inspiration, users can set up music and podcasts right in the Workout app to automatically play when they start a workout. For convenience, Apple Music can now select the best playlist for a user’s workout based on the workout type and their personal tastes, or users can see suggestions for playlists or podcasts based on what they’ve recently listened to during that particular workout type. S10 Chip Brings On-Device Siri, One-Handed Gestures, Voice Isolation, and Media PlaybackIn addition to an Always-On display, the power of the S10 chip allows for faster on-device Siri, now with the ability to access and log health data. For requests that do not require information from the internet, such as starting a workout or setting a timer, results are delivered more quickly and with more reliable responses. On-device processing is private and secure, and now Siri can be used to access data from the Health app for health- and fitness-related queries.The S10 chip also brings the double tap and wrist flick gestures to Apple Watch SE 3, allowing users to do even more on Apple Watch with one hand. With the double tap gesture, users can simply tap their thumb and index finger together twice to select the primary action in a wide variety of apps and notifications, including opening the Smart Stack, answering and ending calls, viewing and sending a message, pausing or ending a timer, snoozing an alarm, and more. When a user raises their wrist to check a notification or call but isn’t ready to respond, the new wrist flick gesture allows them to quickly turn their wrist over and back to dismiss the notification.Apple Watch SE 3 allows users to play media, like music or podcasts, directly through its speaker. For Phone or FaceTime audio calls, the S10 chip also powers Voice Isolation to suppress background noise, so a user’s voice sounds crisp and clear on the other end of the line — even in noisy environments. Apple Watch For Your KidsApple Watch For Your Kids brings the connectivity, fitness, health, and safety features of Apple Watch to kids who do not have their own iPhone, so parents can have peace of mind while their kids gain more independence.Apple Watch For Your Kids makes it possible for parents to reach their child and identify their location via Find My, while kids also have access to powerful safety tools like Emergency SOS.8 Kids can also connect with family and friends through phone calls and messages, stay motivated to reach personalized Activity goals, express themselves through Memoji, download apps from the App Store, and enjoy features that give them more independence like Maps, Siri, and Alarms.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/apple-watch-se-3.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple Watch SE 3" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/apple-introduces-apple-watch-se-3/article/Apple-Watch-SE-3-Apple-Watch-For-Your-Kids-Phone-calls-250909_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple Watch SE 3" width="599" /></a>Featuring a cover glass made of the toughest glass in the industry, the ability to play media directly through the speakers, and fast charging, Apple Watch SE 3 is an excellent option for Apple Watch For Your Kids.

If Apple Watch Ultra 3 detects a severe car crash or a hard fall, and the user is unresponsive while off the grid, it can automatically send situation and location information to emergency services and emergency contacts, when in line of sight of a satellite.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/apple-watch-ultra-3-specs-features-pricing-availability.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple Watch Ultra 3" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/introducing-apple-watch-ultra-3/article/Apple-Watch-Ultra-3-Emergency-SOS-via-satellite-2-250909_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple Watch Ultra 3" width="599" /></a>With Find My via satellite, users can send their location once every 15 minutes to contacts previously added to Find My. In addition, with Messages via satellite, users can send and receive texts, emoji, and Tapbacks to friends and family — including anyone they’ve been in touch with over the last 30 days — while keeping the messages end-to-end encrypted. Users can also send SMS messages via satellite.To enable satellite connectivity in a device as small as Apple Watch Ultra 3, the device’s radio was reengineered to cover more frequencies, and the antenna was redesigned to double the signal strength, allowing communication with satellites as far as 800 miles above Earth and that are moving at 15,000 mph. Apple also continues to invest in crucial emergency infrastructure, including 24/7 relay centres staffed by safety professionals trained to the highest standards, and prioritizes emergency and safety features in the event of natural disasters.Connection with a satellite will automatically be presented as an option when a user is off the grid, and Connection Assistant provides onscreen guidance to help users access satellite features when needed. All satellite communication features are free for two years with Apple Watch Ultra 3. Emergency SOS via satellite is included with Apple Watch Ultra 3 without a cellular plan, and with an active cellular plan, users can also send messages and share their location with Find My. Sleep ScoreSleep is fundamental to a person’s health and critical to daily restoration. Apple Watch allows users to track sleep; measure important health metrics during sleep like heart rate, wrist temperature, blood oxygen, and respiratory rate; and even discover possible sleep apnea. Now, with watchOS 26, Apple Watch can help users understand the quality of their sleep and how to make it more restorative with a new sleep score feature.Sleep quality is influenced by several factors, such as duration, bedtime consistency, how often a person wakes up, and how much time is spent in each sleep stage. With sleep score, Apple Watch helps track each of these categories to assign transparent and easy-to-understand metrics for a user’s overall sleep quality. After each night, sleep score provides an overall score and classification in the Sleep app on Apple Watch, plus a clear breakdown of the most critical components, so users know what to prioritize to improve their sleep. Users can also choose to easily access their sleep score in a watch face complication or in the Smart Stack, and they can track their sleep scores over time in the Health app on iPhone.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/apple-watch-ultra-3-specs-features-pricing-availability.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple Watch Ultra 3" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/introducing-apple-watch-ultra-3/article/Apple-Watch-Ultra-3-sleep-score-250909_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple Watch Ultra 3" width="599" /></a>The scoring approach and prioritization algorithm of sleep score is informed by the latest guidance published by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, National Sleep Foundation, and World Sleep Society. Over 5 million nights of sleep data from the Apple Heart and Movement Study were used to develop and test the scoring algorithms. Advanced Fitness FeaturesWith watchOS 26, Apple Watch Ultra 3 features Workout Buddy, a first-of-its-kind fitness experience powered by Apple Intelligence that analyzes a user’s workout data and fitness history to deliver personalized, spoken motivation throughout their session, based on data like heart rate, pace, distance, Activity rings, personal fitness milestones, and more. Workout Buddy will be available starting in English across some of the most popular workout types, and is available on Apple Watch with Bluetooth headphones, with an Apple Intelligence-supported iPhone nearby.Additionally, the new layout of the Workout app makes it easier to customize workouts with Workout Views, custom workouts, Pacer, Race Route, and more. Apple Watch users can now conveniently view and create workouts in the Fitness app on iPhone, including custom workouts, and then easily access them in the Workout app on Apple Watch.To add inspiration, users can set up music and podcasts right in the Workout app to automatically play when they start a workout. For convenience, Apple Music can now select the best music for a user’s workout based on the workout type and their personal tastes, or users can see suggestions for music or podcasts based on what they’ve recently listened to during that particular workout type.

Apple iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max - Everything You Need to Know

Apple today introduced iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max with a striking new design that delivers a dramatic leap in performance. Both models feature A19 Pro, the most powerful and efficient chip for iPhone yet, enabling the advanced camera systems, next-level mobile gaming, and Apple Intelligence. Built with an Apple-designed vapour chamber that is laser-welded into a strong, light, and thermally conductive aluminum unibody, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max deliver Apple’s best-ever performance and an enormous leap in battery life. Three 48MP Fusion cameras — Main, Ultra Wide, and an all-new Telephoto — offer the equivalent of eight lenses, including the longest optical-quality zoom ever on iPhone at 8x, and the innovative 18MP Center Stage front camera takes selfies to the next level. With new industry-first video features built for pro filmmakers and content creators, including ProRes RAW, Apple Log 2, and genlock, iPhone integrates even more seamlessly into the largest and smallest of productions. Both models feature the Ceramic Shield 2 front cover with 3x better scratch resistance, and for the first time, Ceramic Shield protects the back of iPhone. A New Design for Higher Sustained PerformanceThe new brushed aluminum unibody design is crafted with a lightweight aerospace-grade 7000-series aluminum alloy to deliver the best-ever thermal performance in an iPhone. On the back, the plateau creates additional space for internal components — making room for a larger battery. The antennas are integrated around the perimeter for the highest-performing antenna system ever in an iPhone.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/pple-iphone-17-pro-iphone-17-pro-max-specs-features-pricing-availability.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max - Everything You Need to Know" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/apple-unveils-iphone-17-pro-and-iphone-17-pro-max/article/Apple-iPhone-17-Pro-camera-close-up-250909_big.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max - Everything You Need to Know" width="599" /></a>The new internal architecture features an Apple-designed vapour chamber to enhance heat dissipation and performance. Deionized water is sealed inside the vapour chamber, which is laser-welded into the aluminum chassis to move heat away from the powerful A19 Pro, allowing it to operate at even higher performance levels. The heat is carried into the forged aluminum unibody, where it is distributed evenly through the system, managing power and surface temperatures to deliver incredible performance while remaining comfortable to hold. The unibody design creates space for a larger battery, and with the efficiency of A19 Pro and advanced power management of iOS 26, iPhone 17 Pro Max offers the best battery life ever in an iPhone. And, both models can charge 50 percent in 20 minutes with an optional high-wattage USB-C power adapter like Apple’s new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max. A Gorgeous Display and Industry-Leading DurabilityAvailable in 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch sizes, the Super Retina XDR display is protected by Ceramic Shield 2, tougher than any smartphone glass or glass-ceramic, with a new Apple-designed coating for 3x better scratch resistance and improved anti-reflection to reduce glare. The gorgeous displays feature ProMotion up to 120Hz, Always-On, and 3000 nits of peak outdoor brightness — the highest ever on iPhone — and 2x better outdoor contrast. For the first time, Ceramic Shield protects the back of the devices, delivering 4x better resistance to cracks than the back glass on previous models. A19 Pro: The Most Powerful and Efficient iPhone Chip EverA19 Pro is Apple’s most capable iPhone chip yet. When paired with the Apple-designed vapour chamber, A19 Pro enables iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max to deliver up to 40 percent better sustained performance than the previous generation — ideal for gaming, video editing, and running large local language models. The 6-core CPU is the fastest CPU in any smartphone, and the 6-core GPU architecture includes Neural Accelerators built into each GPU core, a larger cache, and more memory than A18 Pro. The GPU works in tandem with the new 16-core Neural Engine to power Al models, stunning graphics, and AAA gaming titles like Arknights: Endfield, enabling hardware-accelerated ray tracing and higher frame rates.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/pple-iphone-17-pro-iphone-17-pro-max-specs-features-pricing-availability.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max - Everything You Need to Know" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/apple-unveils-iphone-17-pro-and-iphone-17-pro-max/article/Apple-iPhone-17-Pro-cosmic-orange-250909_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max - Everything You Need to Know" width="599" /></a>The iPhone 17 lineup also introduces N1, a new Apple-designed wireless networking chip that enables Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread. In addition to powering the latest generation of wireless technologies, N1 improves the overall performance and reliability of features like Personal Hotspot and AirDrop. A Pro Camera System for More Creative PossibilitiesiPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max feature Apple’s best-ever camera systems with higher-resolution sensors front and back — equivalent to having eight pro lenses in a user’s pocket. Three 48MP Fusion cameras capture sharper and more detailed images. A new 48MP Telephoto camera has a next-generation tetraprism design with a sensor that is 56 percent larger than the previous generation to improve sharpness in bright light and bring more detail to darker shots. The new 4x optical zoom at 100mm offers a classic lens for portraiture, while the 8x optical zoom at 200mm, the longest ever on iPhone, provides longer reach and more creative choice. With the updated Photonic Engine, the image pipeline uses more machine learning to preserve natural detail, reduce noise, and provide significantly improved colour accuracy. Digital zoom also increases up to 40x for photos, and users have even more options for customizing their photos with next-generation Photographic Styles, including a new Bright style available in iOS 26 that brightens skin tones and applies a pop of vibrance across the image.4iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max introduce a brand-new Center Stage front camera that advances the photo and video experience. The Center Stage front camera features the first square front camera sensor on iPhone, offering a wider field of view and higher resolution — up to 18MP for photos — to capture more detail. Users can now take photos and videos in portrait or landscape while holding their iPhone vertically. For group selfies, Center Stage for photos uses AI to automatically expand the field of view and can rotate from portrait to landscape to include everyone in the frame. The Center Stage front camera also enables ultra-stabilized video in 4K HDR, and users can now record on the front and rear cameras simultaneously with Dual Capture — perfect for speaking directly to camera while documenting behind-the-scenes action. During calls over FaceTime or third-party apps, Center Stage for video calls keeps users stable and positioned in frame. Industry-Leading Video CapabilitiesWith powerful features like Dolby Vision HDR recording, 4K120 fps, ProRes Log, and support for ACES, iPhone already leads the industry in smartphone video capture. iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max unlock even more creative possibilities as the first smartphones to support ProRes RAW, Log 2, and genlock, a technique used to precisely synchronize video across multiple cameras and inputs. This helps creatives achieve accurate, professional-looking transitions and advanced creative techniques without hours of manual frame-by-frame alignment. Genlock is supported by the new Blackmagic Design Camera ProDock, and ProRes RAW is supported by Final Cut Camera and Blackmagic Camera, with APIs available to developers.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/pple-iphone-17-pro-iphone-17-pro-max-specs-features-pricing-availability.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max - Everything You Need to Know" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/apple-unveils-iphone-17-pro-and-iphone-17-pro-max/article/Apple-iPhone-17-Pro-color-lineup-250909_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max - Everything You Need to Know" width="599" /></a>eSIM: A Flexible, Convenient, and Secure ConnectioneSIM is a digital SIM that offers greater flexibility, better security, and seamless connectivity compared to traditional physical SIM cards.

Sleep ScoreSleep is fundamental to a person’s health and critical to daily restoration. Apple Watch allows users to track sleep, and its powerful sensors capture data during sleep like heart rate, wrist temperature, blood oxygen, and respiratory rate. Now, with watchOS 26, Apple Watch can help users understand the quality of their sleep and how to make it more restorative with a new sleep score feature.Sleep quality is influenced by several factors, such as duration, bedtime consistency, how often a person wakes up, and how much time is spent in each sleep stage. With sleep score, Apple Watch helps track each of these categories to assign transparent and easy-to-understand metrics for a user’s overall sleep quality. After each night, sleep score provides an overall score and classification in the Sleep app on Apple Watch, plus a clear breakdown of the most critical components, so users know what to prioritize to improve their sleep. Users can also choose to easily access their sleep score in a watch face complication or in the Smart Stack, and they can track their sleep scores over time in the Health app on iPhone.<a href="http://www.shaanhaider.com/2025/09/apple-watch-series-11-launched.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Apple Watch Series 11 launched with up to 24 Hours of Battery Life and 2x more Scratch-resistant Display" border="0" src="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/2025/09/apple-debuts-apple-watch-series-11-featuring-groundbreaking-health-insights/article/Apple-Watch-Series-11-sleep-score-Health-app-250909_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg" title="Apple Watch Series 11 launched with up to 24 Hours of Battery Life and 2x more Scratch-resistant Display" width="599" /></a>The scoring approach and prioritization algorithm of sleep score is informed by the latest guidance published by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, National Sleep Foundation, and World Sleep Society. Over 5 million nights of sleep data from the Apple Heart and Movement Study were used to develop and test the scoring algorithms.Sleep score joins a powerful set of health features available on Apple Watch, including irregular rhythm notifications, high and low heart rate notifications, the ECG app, Blood Oxygen, and retrospective ovulation estimates.
