17 Sep
Summary
- New heart sensor tracks heart rate every five seconds.
- Readiness feature provides daily body preparedness score.
- Live Rewind offers a 15-second audio transcript recall.

The Apple Watch Series 12 arrives with substantial improvements, particularly in health monitoring. A re-engineered heart-rate sensor now samples heart rate every five seconds, offering a more detailed view of cardiovascular health and potentially more accurate calorie tracking.
The device introduces a new Readiness feature, which analyzes heart, sleep, and activity data to provide a daily score indicating the body's preparedness. This feature requires at least a week of data to become active.
Beyond health, the Series 12 integrates Siri with Music Recognition, identifying songs using Shazam. A forthcoming Live Rewind feature will allow users to access a 15-second audio transcript of recent speech via a double-tap of the Digital Crown, with built-in safeguards.
Powered by the new S11 chip, the watch boasts enhanced performance, smarter features, and improved step tracking accuracy. While battery life supports a full day and night, fast-charging is recommended for convenience. The Series 12 continues to offer vital safety features like Fall and Crash Detection.
