The Apple Watch Series 11 is right around the corner, so what makes it worth the upgrade?
Next week, alongside the iPhone 17 lineup, Apple is also going to announce its newest smartwatch: the Apple Watch Series 11. So, what makes the Series 11 any better than the Series 10, and why would you want to upgrade?
Turns out, quite a bit, actually. Here’s every leaked feature that makes the Series 11 the smartwatch to get if you want the latest and greatest from Apple.
For the first time ever, the Apple Watch is expected to receive 5G support with the Series 11. The rumored modem that Apple will use — the low-power MediaTek 5G RedCap — will ensure that the watch’s battery life remains unchanged, while offering faster data capabilities.
Even the Apple Watch Ultra 2 doesn’t have 5G, though that may change with the Apple Watch Ultra 3, which makes the Series 11 even more of a no-brainer.
Though it’s been hinted at before for previous Apple Watch models, the Series 11 might actually finally be able to monitor your blood pressure. While it won’t replace proper medical equipment — don’t expect accurate systolic and diastolic readings — it will at least be able to alert you to sudden spikes and concerning long-term values.
