"Apple Watch Series 7" released on October 15, 2021.As the model name suggests, what has evolved in the Apple Watch, which is Series 7 (7th generation)?
Let's introduce the features of "Series 7", comparing "Apple Watch Series 6" and "Apple Watch SE" released last year.
What changed significantly in "Series 7" was the case and the display size.This is the second time since "Series 3", the "face" that determines the character of the clock has changed.The display was large, the outer frame of the case became thinner, and the display area became larger.As a result, the operability increased dramatically as the visibility was improved.It was a visible full model change.
From here, let's compare each item.First, about the case and the display size.
As mentioned earlier, the biggest topic of "Series 7" is the change in the case and the display size.First, the case size was 44mm / 40mm in "Series 6" and "SE", but in "Series 7", 45mm / 41mm increased by 1mm.
On the other hand, the outer frame of the case was reduced by 40 %, the display area was increased by 20 %, and more than 50 % from Series 3.
The black outer frame of the case has become thinner, and the dial and content are displayed until the last minute of the display.By the way, the size of the main unit has been changed, but I am glad that the bands so far can continue to be used.
In addition, as the display size is expanded, the button size in the screen has been large, and the operability is greatly improved.New software keyboards are now available, supporting words prediction by AI.You can now enter text on Apple Watch.
"Series 7" has improved not only the design change but also the durability.The front crystal that covers the display is up to 50 % thicker, boasting more than twice the strength of Series 6, and has also improved the durability on cracks.
In addition, the displayed Retina display has become even brighter.The brightness is adjusted by raising and lowering the wrist, but even when the wrist is lowered, it looks more than 70 % brighter than "Series 6".
The battery driving time of "Series 7", as with "Series 6" and "SE", is up to 18 hours in one charge, but the charging speed is 33 %.The charging system has been renewed, and using a USB-C cable that supports the included high-speed charging has made the battery charged from 0 % to 80 % in about 45 minutes.For example, the charging time required to measure eight hours of sleep is only 8 minutes.
In addition, the Apple Watch is the first to support the dustproof performance of IP6X grade, and the water -resistant performance of 50m in depth is continued from "Series 6" and "SE".It is an impression that the reliability is increasing in all directions.
In the healthcare function, it continues to be compatible with blood oxygen measurement and electrocardiogram measurement from "Series 6".It can be said that monitoring physical functions regularly is encouraging from the perspective of the illness.
In the workout, bicycle exercise measurement was greatly enhanced.When you pedal, the bicycle workout starts automatically, and it also detects a bicycle fall.Even when using an electric bicycle, accurate calorie measurement was realized.
And when choosing an Apple Watch, the case of the case material and color variations."Series 7" has three types of cases, aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium.The color variations are as follows.
Aluminum: Midnight, Starlight, Green, Blue, (Product) Red
Stainless steel: Silver, graphite, gold
Titanium: Titanium, Space Black Titanium
In addition, a collaboration model by NIKE and Hermes, which has become a standard standard, is a lineup.I want to consider matching with the band.
Finally, let's check the main specifications of "Series 7", "Series 6" and "SE".
