Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 first look: AI and major health upgrades!

Apple has unveiled its latest iteration of smartwatches, the Series 12 and Ultra 4, which boast a range of enhanced health sensors, continuous heart-rate monitoring, and sophisticated AI-driven functionalities. CNET's Vanessa Hand Orellana provides an in-depth look at the new S11 chip, readiness tracking, ceramic models, and extended battery life.

The Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 were unveiled, with their release date, price, and features yet to be disclosed. Meanwhile, the Ultra 4 saw no price increase, yet introduced fresh features. The comparison between the two models delves into their upgraded performance, attributed to the S11 chip and AI capabilities.

Audio intelligence and a live rewind feature are among the audio-centric upgrades, while the health sensors have been redesigned for continuous heart-rate tracking. The new readiness score, coupled with an overhaul of the health app, are introduced as significant updates to user experience.

Ceramic and bronze finishes are among the new aesthetic options, expanding the customization possibilities for users. Battery life and an ultra-extended workout mode are further enhancements, ensuring the devices cater to the demanding needs of fitness enthusiasts.

In the final analysis, Orellana questions whether these upgrades justify an upgrade for existing Apple Watch owners.
