  "account": "Apple unveils the Apple Watch Ultra 4, priced at ₹109,900, as the top-tier model in its rugged wearable lineup. Equipped with the S11 chip and enhanced Health Sensing System, the watch offers continuous, high-fidelity health monitoring. The new S11 chip, coupled with larger green LEDs for heart rate tracking every five seconds and Heart Rate Variability measured up to 24 times more frequently, delivers the most accurate heart rate readings ever recorded. A standout feature is the Readiness score—ranging from 0 to 10—derived from sleep, vitals, and training load, advising users whether to recover, pace, or push hard. Machine learning algorithms have also been refined for step-tracking accuracy, now the best among smartwatches. The Ultra 4's battery life has significantly improved, lasting up to 50 hours in standard use, 84 hours in Low Power Mode, and 45 hours in Max Extended Workout mode, sufficient for a full 100-mile race. Upon nearing depletion, a 15-minute quick charge can add up to 18 hours of runtime. Powered by watchOS 27, the Ultra 4 integrates Apple Intelligence, enabling Siri AI to operate on the wrist with personalized context awareness. On-device Audio Intelligence aids in capturing key conversation details securely, thanks to hardware-isolated processing. The watch is made from 45 percent recycled materials, featuring a 100 percent recycled titanium case in natural and black titanium finishes. Additional options include refreshed Trail Loop, Alpine Loop, and translucent Ocean Bands, alongside an Apple Watch Hermès edition with a Grand H titanium band designed to stretch with wet suits.",
