But this doesn’t mean Apple has no exciting new health features planned for the near future. After the heart rate sensor of the first Apple Watch, Apple has been able to add a SpO2 sensor, an electrocardiogram (ECG) and a skin temperature sensor over the years. Next year, the smartwatch’s health features will be expanded to include blood pressure measurement.
However, this sensor is not nearly as useful as that on the Xiaomi Watch H1 or the Huawei Watch D because instead of providing precise measurement results, the Apple Watch is only intended to show users a trend of whether blood pressure is falling or rising over time, as well as provide alerts for high blood pressure. Apple is already working on a more precise sensor that will provide accurate readings, but this is not expected to be available for several years. The next-generation Apple Watch should also be able to detect sleep apnea, similar to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6.
