Apple Watch Series 10 will have sleep apnea detection

Apple Watch is not only a fashion accessory, but also the best companion for sports and health. At this fall’s launch event, Apple is about to launch the tenth generation of Apple Watch. Foreign media reported that the new watch will be equipped with a sleep apnea detection function, but this function may not be launched immediately when the new model is released.

It is understood that sleep apnea detection is built on the existing sleep tracking function of the watch. It will try to determine whether the wearer has sleep apnea and then recommend further testing to medical professionals. In addition, this feature will rely on blood oxygen saturation, so it is very likely that this feature will come in the form of software rather than adding a new sensor.

It is quite common to upgrade new features through OTA after release. For example, Apple pushed the watchOS 8 10.1 system after release, which brought the “two-finger double-tap” function to Apple Watch Series 9.

In terms of hardware, the overall design of the Apple Watch Series 10 is similar to that of the Apple Watch Series 9, but Apple offers a slightly larger screen size option, and the case itself is said to be significantly thinner. Apple is expected to release the new model at the September 9 event along with the iPhone 16.
