Apple also partners with medical institutions to further develop uses for its blood oxygen monitoring feature.

The Apple Watch Series 6 will have an A13 Bionic chip, previously found in the iPhone 11 phones. It's said to be 20% faster than the Watch Series 5, will have faster charging, and will come with components that allow it to be used as a digital car key.According to Apple, what the new watch does is that it has the ability to measure the oxygen saturation of the user's blood or SpO2.

While the function is there in the Watch 6 to measure blood levels, Apple seems to be still currently developing practical uses for it. It announced that it has research partnerships with medical institutions to study blood oxygen monitoring and how it relates to asthma, heart failure, and even COVID-19.

The watch also has an always-on Retina display, is up to 2.5 times brighter than the Watch, and will come with watchOS 7. Prices start at $399 and $499 . It will be available starting September 18, in the US, Puerto Rico, and 27 other countries and regions.
