The headliner is definitely Apple Watch Ultra.

You’ll definitely notice a larger, 49mm titanium case and screen. With regular use, the battery will last up to 30 hours on a single charge. And with low power settings, that expands to up to 60 hours.

There is also a new customizable action button on the left side of the watch for more customization. Other features include night mode, siren, and all-new bands.

You can purchase the Apple Watch Ultra beginning today. It will start at $799 and arrive on Friday, September 23.

The Apple Watch Series 8 is highlighted by a new temperature sensor. That can help women better understand their cycle and fertility.

A Crash Detection feature on the watch can also detect whether you’ve been in a car crash. It can call your emergency contacts and emergency services.

That feature uses two new sensors in the Apple Watch. It will only run while you are driving.

With the new Low Power Mode, you can use the Apple Watch for up to 36 hours after a full charge. It will also be available on any Apple Watch Series 4 or later with watchOS 9.

It’s available to order starting today and will hit the market next week on Friday, September 23. It will start at $399 for the GPS model and $499 for the GPS + Cellular version. There will be four colors of the aluminum model and three stainless steel versions to select from.

Apple also unveils the second-generation Apple Watch SE for $249 for the GPS and $299 for the GPS + Cellular version. It lands next Friday, Sept. 16 and can be purchased starting today.
