Apple Watch Series 8 Evaluation: Very excellent, but one feature has not been fully utilized

Author:Watching Technology Time:2022.09.22

In recent years, the new Apple Watch released by Apple is the same as the iPhone. There is no innovation.

Don't misunderstand me. In many new smart watches, I still think that Apple Watch Series 8 is a very good smart watch, which is full of useful sensors and unparalleled functions. Apple watches have not only exceeded other smart watches, but in fact, Apple has established a classic watch brand.

But at the same time, the Apple Watch Series 8 has almost no new features. It feels that its existence is just because Apple hopes to have a watch with a temperature sensor in the same year that Samsung is launched.

Apple Watch Series 8 evaluation begins:

Exterior screen

The Apple Watch has basically adopted the same design and circular side since its appearance, reflecting the appearance from iPhone X to iPhone 11.

However, we have indeed got a larger screen. Since Apple Watch Series 7, it has developed to the front of the ultra -thin border and almost full screen.

Series 7 has two sizes, 41mm and 45mm cases.

These two sizes can well meet the needs of most people. We found that the size of 45 mm is just right. Even for larger wrists, it will not be too bulky or too small. And there are various wristbands to choose from, you can make it very suitable for your style. 41 mm is a great choice for slender wrists. At the same time, it still has enough screen space to show you a complete WatchOS 9 interface.

The screen uses a 1.9 -inch LTPO OLED panel again, which can provide you with a brightness of 1000 Nit to prevent you from viewing the time under the sun. It naturally retains the interest screen display function since Series 4.

Software and function

The WatchOS system software runs well in the Apple ecosystem, and it provides various notices directly on your wrist. You can unlock it by Apple Watch near iPhone or Mac. You can send and receive iMessage information or chat with third -party applications. With integrated microphones and speakers, you can call it through it.

Apple Watch Series 8 brings some features. For example, blood oxygen app, body temperature sensing, menstrual follow -up support recovery estimation of ovulation day, fall test, car accident test, sleep tracking.

These functions have brought great help to users, and they have to say that Series 8 has brought a lot of convenience to people's lives.

Processor and storage

Apple Watch Series 8 has a new dual -core S8 SIP chip. It is 64 -bit, and the dual -core CPU can complete the work well. The application startup speed is fast enough, and the reading is fast. The smooth graphic on the Apple Watch interface is as pleasant as ever.

In fact, we have also used Apple Watch Series 6, which is still perfect.

Watch Series 8 still provides a limited file storage space of 32 GB, which can store some favorite songs and photos without having to bring your iPhone every time.

Battery life

Apple Watch Series 8 is the same as Series 7. It can get a battery life of up to 18 hours at a time. Apple said that the new low -power mode can double it, up to 36 hours.

Although we did not have battery tests for wearable devices, we did spend a lot of time in daily activities to use Apple Watch Series 8. In fact, its battery life can indeed last a day and a half. Since it supports fast charging, it can be charged 80%within 1 hour.

Very excellent, but there is one feature that has not been fully used

In general, regardless of appearance design and screens, software functions and battery life, Apple Watch Series 8 is indeed excellent compared with the new smart watches in the market. And more importantly, it also has the ability to detect a car accident. In particular, it can automatically call for help.

However, one function has not been fully utilized. It has a temperature sensor, which is only useful to girls and has nothing to do with boys.
