Apple will start accepting pre-orders of its brand new Apple Watch Series 7 on October 8. As reports suggest, it will be limited in supply during pre-orders, are you planning to place an order this year?

Apple has finally confirmed that Apple Watch Series 7 will be available in stores on October 15, with pre-orders starting this Friday, October 8. However, if you’re planning to buy a new Apple Watch, be aware that availability may be really low due to limited supplies.

Apple has announced that Apple Watch Series 7 orders will open this Friday, October 8. The first orders will deliver from a week later, on October 15.

Apple announced the new model during the iPhone 13 keynote, but didn’t say at the time when it would go on sale …

While watchOS 8 seems like a light update on the surface, it’s actually indicative of much larger changes that are likely coming down the road. One thing that has become increasingly obvious is that Apple is preparing for greater independence from the iPhone. They’re making several changes both in watchOS 8 and with Apple Watch Series 7 that make using an Apple Watch independently better than ever.

The original Apple Watch, first released by Apple in 2015, is now officially considered a “vintage” product, according to Apple. The company today updated its list of vintage and obsolete products to add the original Apple Watch as well as the 13-inch and 15-inch Retina MacBook Pros from 2015.

It’s no secret that as fun as motorcycles are, they’re far more dangerous in a collision than in a car. Even the most experienced rider faces the risk of someone driving distracted. That’s one of the main reasons I always ride with my Apple Watch and its SOS feature. For a 24-year-old motorcycle rider in Singapore, that potential benefit turned into a reality.

Apple and Stanford Medicine have published new data from the ongoing Apple Heart Study that uses data from Apple Watch to identify irregular heart rhythms. As first reported by MyHealthyApple, the latest research published this week in the American Heart Association Journal shows that the Apple Watch can detect arrhythmias other than atrial fibrillation (AFib/AF).

iPhone 13 launched this Friday. While customers around the globe were happy to receive their brand new phone, it didn’t take long for them to realize that the “Unlock with Apple Watch” feature wasn’t working. Today, Apple addressed this issue on a support document page.

The next major version of Apple Watch software lands today with the release of watchOS 8. Now users can choose to share health information with family members and doctors, take a moment to pause with the new Mindfulness app, and turn Portrait mode photos into watch faces.

One of the few new features of the Apple Watch Series 7 is support for fast charging, which results in 33% faster charging time when compared to the Apple Watch Series 6. However, Apple says that fast charging requires a new USB-C cable (which now comes bundled in the box), but MagSafe Duo owners may not be able to take advantage of this feature.

Apple Watch Series 7 made its public debut earlier this week ahead of a launch sometime this year. While we don’t yet know the exact release date beyond ‘later this fall’, we do have answers to frequently asked questions you may be asking.

With the new products introduced on Tuesday, Apple retired silver and space gray/black for some devices and replaced them with new starlight and midnight colors. While we haven’t seen the new colors in-person yet, it’s quite clear that they are very different.

Many of us have been left scratching our heads following the announcement of the Apple Watch Series 7, not just because rumors didn’t pan out but because Apple is being quite vague about when it’s going to ship. They’ve simply said that it will be available “later this Fall” and that doesn’t even take into account if they’ll be available in large quantities or severely constrained. There are lots of clues on Apple.com and in today’s event that have us questioning if Apple even knows when the Series 7 will ship.

Alongside the new Apple Watch Series 7, the company has introduced a fresh collection of watch bands. There are new colors and designs all across the board, including new striped sport loop bands. The new bands continue to work with previous Apple Watch generations and old bands will work with the Series 7.

Apple Watch Series 7 is being shown off for the first time today as part of Apple’s September iPhone 13 event. The new hardware features an expanded display, new finish options, faster charging, and more.

Twitter account DongleBookPro has shared a newly revealed Apple Watch Series 2 prototype that shows that cellular compatibility was initially planned to be launched a year earlier. The prototype shown off by DongleBookPro also has a red Digital Crown, just like the Series 3 watch, which was the first shipping model with cellular.

This morning, Ming-Chi Kuo released an analyst note that acknowledged Apple faced manufacturing issues when ramping the production of the new Apple Watch, set to be unveiled on Tuesday at the September 14 Apple event.

However, Kuo says Apple and its suppliers have now overcome those issues, and mass production will be beginning soon. The analyst expects the new Watch lineup to be released in late September.
