News & Reviews:   Apple Watch

Apple is always putting its customers' safety first, and hence, the company is rumoured to be working on a feature that detects car crashes for both iPhones and Apple Watches. The fall detection on Apple Watches has received praises by saving multiple lives. Therefore, we trust that Apple has some ways of ensuring these features work as to how they're supposed to work.

If you've ever wondered how Apple Watch can top itself with more advanced features, the answer might have been revealed through one of the patents filed by the tech giant. According to the source, future Apple Watches could detect your hydration level based on your sweat, and it sounds like a cool feature for smartwatches to have!

When you buy Apple devices, they usually come in either black or white colours. That's fine for some people, but others may find them bland. Fortunately, Apple has been begun to add more colour options to some of its products, such as the latest Apple Watch Series 6.

On 5 April, LG officially announced that it would pull itself out of the smartphone business after years of declining sales. The company has decided not to make Android smartphones anymore but will continue to provide support for existing devices. Today, the news has come claiming that the Korean tech company is in talks with Apple about selling iPhone in its stores.

As many of you may know, WWDC 2021 will be held in the early hours of 8th June 2021 (based on Malaysian time). While Apple could unveil some hardware at the event, most of it will be about software. In fact, there are some leaks for watchOS already.

After seeing the news of someone developing sensors to detect the COVID-19 virus, we have a new one today saying that Apple is researching to find out if the Apple Watch could notice someone has contracted the virus. Comparing these two methods, it is no doubt that the one using a sensor is more advanced and will not have to wait until a person is sick. As the sensor will not be available at the moment, it is still nice to know that the current tech product can provide help to users during the pandemic.

In recent months, we've seen patents for an Apple Watch with an under-display camera, as well as one with a flexible display. But sources believe that the company isn't just going to make one model this year. It's rumoured that the company is also considering launching a new model within the next year or so.

A new iOS update isn't the only thing that Apple released recently. Previously, it was rumoured that the company would add premium features to some of its other services. That hasn't happened, but Apple did launch Time to Walk for Fitness+ subscribers.

Yup, you read that right. New case studies are saying that smartwatches may have a key to detect a COVID-19 virus. According to research from Mount Sinai Health System, Stanford University and other reputable medical and academic institutions, smartwatches such as Apple Watch, Garmin and Fitbit can detect infections before the symptoms start appearing up to 7 days.

Wow, Apple has sure been working on a lot of new techs lately. It's only the start of 2021, but we've already seen one patent for MacBooks and another two for iPhones. But that doesn't seem to be the end, as sources have now found another patent to detect voices.
