Apple on Wednesday announced the latest generation Apple Watch at the event tonight. The business played a video demonstrating how consumers have benefited from the Apple Watch's health and fitness functions over the past several years. The Apple Watch Series 8 is the most recent model of the popular wearable.  In fact, according to Tim Cook, this year's watches are the greatest Apple has ever introduced.

Here are the new features which will be included in the Apple Watch Series 8

  • New specs: The new watch faces, an always-on display, a sophisticated design, water and dust resistance, and crack resistant are all features of the Apple Watch Series 8.
  • Focus on health: The new Apple Watch Series 8 has a number of useful fitness and health capabilities, such as ovulation, which will let female users monitor their menstrual cycle, temperature monitoring (at long last), sleep monitoring, blood oxygen monitoring, and many more features.
  • Apple claims that the device's dual sensor architecture increases the accuracy of recording body temperature and other vital signs. With the Apple Watch Series 8, the business is taking privacy extremely seriously as well.
