I've been testing Apple's new flagship watch for the past week - here's everything you need to know.

Apple Watch Series 12 review: A new heart rate sensor and a readiness score make this the best smartwatch on the market

Apple has unveiled the Apple Watch Series 12, touting the most precise heart rate sensor available. The tech giant's latest creation is poised to be the best smartwatch on the market, according to health writer and enthusiast. The watch features a heart rate reading every five seconds, 60 times more frequent than the previous Series 11, thus enabling heart rate variability (HRV) readings and a new readiness score that offers useful insights into when to exert oneself and when to rest.

An updated Health app brings in longevity features. However, the watch houses a built-in microphone for upcoming audio intelligence features, a point that many users dislike. After a week of wearing the Series 12, the reviewer is impressed and invites readers to delve into the full review for more details.
