The tech world has always celebrated Apple for the innovations it brings around with its products and Apple Watch Series 4 is again one such celebration.
Apple Watches have been providing people with a range of features and design that they go gaga over them.
Today we will review the Apple Watch – Series 4 showing how this new version has made a master blaster entry giving the tough beat to the competition and the previous versions.
It’s Design
AW4 is available in two sizes – 40mm and 44mm case which is quite similar to 38mm and 42mm AW3 watches.
A slimmer case further moderates the design, which is 10.7mm which quite thinner than 11.4mm of series 3. It may not make a massive difference while reading but it is when it comes to the practical sizes.
While Apple advances in screen technology and case size in the Series 4. 40mm Series 4 watch is having a more large display than the 42mm Series 3 watch.
This element is making it much easier to read the text and tap the buttons with much precision lessening the chances of error occurrences.
It is matching the faces of both a mobile – with thinner boundaries and a watch – more rounded edges; makes it more like a mobile watch.
Well, it is much more than just a watch. It allows you to change the background watch faces as much as you like making it much more than merely a Watch.
Other improvements are the speaker and the crawler on the sides of the case.
The speaker is 50% louder than the earlier series, and the mic sits on the other side decreasing the voice echo.
The crawler is much slimmer and good looking than the previous version. It also allows easily click while crawling and selecting.
Software & the screen
Apple Watch Series 4 has one more thing which will make you lure for it.
It has the most efficient software, Watch OS 5 installed in it with a fabulous screen on which you can use it.
Apple has sensibly advanced the software rather than profoundly redesigning it.
It has made much pleasant to scroll and work on it.
Another feature that can be called to pull up the show is the famous Siri.
It has become much more sensible to use Siri in AW4. You can use the Siri shortcuts in your watch which you have set in your iPhone with iOS 12.
However, one can still notice the issue with Siri tripping while dictating the command to it.
Another smart and loving feature is the Walky-talky in AW4. One can open the app and send voice messages to a friend.
You need to press the yellow button on the screen and record your message, and once you release the button, it reaches to your friend within a fraction of seconds.
So man, if you are looking for short but productive conversation, Walky-talky can do it for you. It sounds the same while in the group chats as well.
Cell Connections
Just like the older versions, AW4 comes with an option to purchase a model with a cell connection; however, costs you to pay additional carrier charge allowing you to use a limited amount of data.
It is smart enough and does not require a SIM card inserted or a continuous connection to your phone. However, it’s only available in the Stainless steel model and not yet in the Aluminium model.
You can keep your phone at home and still use your watch to make calls and receive messages; also, you can use the internet.
Apple Watch Series 4 has an improved speaker which allows hearing what the person another side is saying clearly, and the mic is even better which helps your caller listen to you nicely.
However, its usefulness gets limited when it gets out of the App support. There are several great functioning apps such as the Messenger, WeChat and Line.
There is no Watch App for WhatsApp and for Twitter you have to use a third-party app. Further, there are many other applications which you should download on your Apple Watch to get the best out of it.
Apart from the cellular connectivity, Apple Watch is connectible to Bluetooth and wireless headphones, one of the ancient and the simple-to-use feature.
Health and Fitness
Apple Watch Series 4 is smarter than the previous versions regarding health and fitness calculations.
There is an automatic exercise detection feature available now; which works pretty well and, a bit later but, notifies you whether you want to start the workout.
It consists of many pre-built fitness plans such as hiking and gym; all transferred to iPhone’s Health App where the data is maintained nicely.
However, the highly efficient software Watch OS5 will not let you sit and push you to exercise.
The software’s design is ingenious. It pops up the alerts hourly asking you to get up and walk or relax for a while if you are strained.
Every morning, it shows you the alerts about the previous step totals and motivates you to beat those. It works towards making you more active and healthy.
It helps setting fitness goals which are easy-achieving, as well as motivating, with minor changes in lifestyle.
It comes with several workout options which you would like to choose and want the watch to track your progress, and you beat the goals set.
The options include cycling, walking, running, hiking, yoga, swimming, and boxing and gym too. However, it still lacks the option of weight-lifting.
Further, it has an immensely extra-ordinary feature of pro-active care – Fall detection. So, the next time you fall upon something and hurt yourself, having your Apple Watch Series 4 on the wrist can help you call the help immediately with the features of quick calls and SOS.
It has also come up with an element of Electro Cardio-gram on your wrist. Well, we are not suggesting you rely entirely on it yet as nobody can take a doctor’s place when it comes to the heart but it still can give you an emergency update that you should see your doctor.
Apple Watch Series 4 here comes up with the features of low heart-rate notifications and the fast heart-rate readings which give you the pop-ups to check on your heart and take good care of it.
Processor and Battery
Of course, nothing can be so smoother on the outer side with performance unless the core is strong.
Here, Apple uses a 64-bit dual core processor and makes it run even smoother than any other smartwatches available out there.
It was previously a bit difficult to switch through multiple applications or different parts of the watches interfaces, but AW4 will make you forget all this past.
It has become much convenient to multitask on this small device. You can even chat for a long time if you want.
While talking about the processor, we shift a bit towards battery life. It lasts for maximum up to 18 hours in a day if you use a few applications such as GPS, fitness tracking or messaging.
However, it can last more if you use it carefully. Well, this may seem less regarding battery life, but we have seen many even worse than this.
Conclusion
Although it comes with several useful and innovative features as a mobile phone, a watch, and a fitness companion, its battery life is still something that needs to be worked on, and customers do want it to get improving.
Further, if you are an iPhone user, there’s no better companion than Apple Watch Series 4 to keep you up with your health and make you productive with faster communication.
