Apple Watch Series 12 GPS + Cellular is Apple's health, fitness and safety watch with its own cellular connection. This configuration pairs a 42mm Black aluminum case with a Black Sport Band in S/M. The 5G (RedCap) and LTE modem keeps you connected when your iPhone is out of reach, so you can run, hike or commute with only the watch. It is a good fit for individuals and for teams who want safety features and connectivity on the wrist.
The all-new Health Sensing System combines a second-generation electrical heart sensor, an always-on optical heart sensor, a blood oxygen sensor and a temperature sensor. Working with the S11 chip, it takes background heart rate readings every five seconds and HRV readings as often as every five minutes. The results feed a daily readiness score, sleep score, the Vitals app, ECG, irregular rhythm notifications, sleep apnea notifications and hypertension notifications.
The S11 chip has a 64-bit dual-core processor, a 4-core Neural Engine and 64GB of capacity. It runs Siri powered by Apple Intelligence and Audio Intelligence features such as Live Rewind, Siri Recap, Shazam and Sound Recognition. The Always-On Retina display uses wide-angle OLEDs and LTPO3, ranges from 1 nit to 2000 nits, and sits under Ceramic Shield 2.
Safety features include Emergency SOS, international emergency calling, Fall Detection, Crash Detection, Backtrack and Check In. The watch is water resistant to 50m under ISO 22810:2010 and dust resistant to IP6X. Battery life is up to 24 hours of normal use, or up to 38 hours in Low Power Mode, and fast charging reaches up to 80% in about 30 minutes. It requires iPhone 11 or later, or iPhone SE (2nd generation or later), with iOS 27 or later.
