The buzz surrounding the Apple Watch 10 is skyrocketing as tech expert Mark Gurman confirms it will come with a new blood pressure monitoring feature. This news is a big deal because it means people could check their blood pressure right from their wrist, making the Apple Watch more than just a fancy gadget.
Gurman, in his blog on Bloomberg, says, ‘All signs point to the next Apple Watch having a blood pressure checker this autumn. But it’s unlikely that this feature will work on older models.’
We don’t know all the details yet, but some think Apple might use the watch’s heart rate sensors to measure blood flow speed. But getting accurate readings might be tricky with different surroundings, so it could be more about spotting trends than exact numbers.
Even with this cool feature, you might still need a regular blood pressure monitor for really accurate results, especially in situations where precision matters.
When’s it coming out?
The Apple Watch 10 is expected to launch alongside the new iPhones in autumn 2024, potentially changing the game for smartwatches. Whether you’re a big Apple fan or just interested in health tech, this blood pressure feature could be a major step forward in wearable gadgets.
