Apple Watch Series 7 Big Display

The Series 7 Watch, according to Apple, has the largest, most advanced display yet. This new display has more screen area – ~20% – than the Series 6. And compared to the Series 3 Watch, the screen area increases by over 50%. Now, that is one massive smartwatch. Series 7, despite its bigger screen, has thinner borders than the Series 6 Watch at just 1.7mm. It also comes with a more refined shape featuring softer, more rounded corners. There’s an addition that makes your Series 7 watch 70% brighter when you’re indoors and your wrist is down. With this, you can take a quick glance at stuff like what the time is or if you have any messages. Generally, you’d see larger and redesigned buttons in the Series 7 to complement its size and display. On the plus side, this makes it easier to tap and work through. And you get to see even more text on-screen at one glance without scrolling.

Design and Durability

Like you might have guessed, the Apple Watch Series 7 is crack resistant. It’s also the first Apple Watch to have IP6X certification which makes it dust resistant. And it’s also water-resistant, as expected. So yes, you can take your smartwatch for a swim. The smartwatch will be available in 5 new aluminum colors – Midnight, Starlight, Green, Blue, and Product Red. They’d also be available in silver, graphite, and gold stainless steel. Also natural and space black titanium. The color options are a lot here, hence, lets users have their aesthetically pleasing pick. You can go ahead to customize your Series 7 with bands as they are compatible with all existing bands.

Watch 7 For Bikers

For everyone who rides a bike, the Apple Watch OS 8 can now automatically detect when you begin riding/pedaling and remind you to start a workout. It also has the ability to pause and resume – automatically too – if you stop riding temporarily. The OS also adds fall detection to cycling where it senses the unique motion and impact of falls. After you’ve taken a fall, calling emergency contacts is just a tap away, or you can say you’re okay. Even e-bikes are now supported with an improved algorithm that helps to calculate calories more accurately. The Watch OS 8 – which comes with the Apple Watch Series 7 – has some other nice additions like the Mindfulness app and Memories in Photos.
