Apple's Beyond Watches - Can Measure Blood Pressure

The Promise of Health-tech in Africa - The Promise of Health-tech in Africa  - Tekedia Forum - Tekedia

The next Apple Watch can measure blood pressure. One by one, Apple Watch is becoming a meter for the body, making it valued beyond just fashion and checking time. Indeed, it has become a medical device and fitness tool for many.

Apple is planning a "splashy upgrade" for its flagship smartwatch to mark the device's 10-year anniversary next year, Bloomberg writes. The tech giant will unveil its 2023 model on Sept. 12 — the same day it will unfurl its iPhone 15 devices. While that's expected to be a "minor refresh," Apple is reported to be planning a significant overhaul in 2024 when it releases the “Watch X” model. Apple designers are said to be examining making the watch case thinner and also changing the way bands are attached to the device. The watch is also expected to be able to measure blood pressure.
