Always-On Retina display You no longer need to raise your wrist or touch the screen to see the time or other information on your watch face, because the display never sleeps. So whether riding a bike, cranking out some crunches or counting the minutes in a meeting, all you need to do is glance to find the time or your workout metrics right there where you want them. A screen as remarkable as the day is long To remain on all day with all-day battery life, hardware & software have to work in harmony. The display dims when your wrist is down, yet key features, like watch hands, remain visible at all times. Touching the face or raising your wrist brings everything back to full brilliance. Ultra-low-power LTPO display Ultra-low-power LTPO display. The low temperature poly-silicon & oxide display features a reinvented pixel architecture that lets the screen refresh rate dip from 60 Hz to a power-sipping 1 Hz when the watch is inactive. A new low-power driver, ultra-efficient power management & a new ambient light sensor work together so the display can stay always on with up to 18 hours of battery life. Compass & location features A built-in magnetometer detects magnetic north then automatically adjusts to show true north, so youâll now know which way youâre facing in the Maps app. GPS works in conjunction with terrain data to tell you your current elevation â great for outdoor workouts. ECG on your wrist. Anytime, anywhere With the ECG app, Apple Watch Series 5 is capable of generating an ECG similar to a singleâlead electrocardiogram. Itâs a momentous achievement for a wearable device that can provide critical data for doctors & peace of mind for you. Your finger can tell you a lot about your heart Electrodes built into the Digital Crown & the back crystal work together with the ECG app to read your heartâs electrical signals. Simply touch the Digital Crown to generate an ECG waveform in just 30 seconds. The ECG app can indicate whether your heart rhythm shows signs of atrial fibrillation â a serious form of irregular heart rhythm â or sinus rhythm, which means your heart is beating in a normal pattern. It has your heart in mind Unusually high or low heart rates & irregular heart rhythms (known as arrhythmias) could be signs of a serious condition. But many people donât recognise the symptoms, so the underlying causes often go undiagnosed. With notifications in the Heart Rate app, Apple Watch Series 5 can check your heart & alert you to these irregularities â so you can take action & consult your doctor. Track your cycle with a tap The Cycle Tracking app gives you insight into your menstrual cycle & can help provide a clearer picture of your overall health. In addition to simply ensuring that youâre prepared, youâll have more information to help you track irregularities & symptoms, & enrich discussions with your doctor. Safe from sound Noise can rise to levels that may impact your hearing without your even realising it. The new Noise app senses when the roar of the crowd or the rumble of machinery reaches a level that may pose a risk. So you can step out or plug up to give your ears the break they need. Take a breather Taking moments throughout the day to stop, relax & practise mindfulness can help reduce stress & improve overall health. The Breathe app keeps you centred by leading you through a series of calming breaths. Itâs also available as a watch face, so you can bring focus to your day just by raising your wrist. Fall Detection Apple Watch Series 5 can detect that youâve fallen. When an incident like this occurs, a hard fall alert is delivered, & you can easily initiate a call to emergency services or dismiss the alert. If youâre unresponsive after 60 seconds, the emergency call will be placed automatically. Your emergency contacts will then be notified & sent your location. Three rings, one goal Understanding all the ways you move throughout the day is an essential part of living a healthy life. Apple Watch shows your daily movement as three simple metrics: Move, Exercise & St&. Together they make up the Activity rings that track your progress all day long. But Apple Watch doesnât just show you how youâre doing, it also keeps you going with motivation from personal coaching, awards & Activity competitions. Itâs everything you need to stay fired up to close your rings every day of the year. Specifications
