The novelty will be presented in sizes 41 and 45mm, which is 1mm more than the corresponding versions of the previous model. The main thing is that with an increase in size of only 1mm, an increase in the size of the Retina display itself is achieved by about 20%. This was achieved by changing the design of the glass and reducing the bezel around the display by 40% (the bezel is reduced by 1.7mm):

According to the manufacturer, this will allow to see almost 50% more text on the Watch 7 display than on version 6. Now in always-on display mode, it is 70% brighter (indoors) in inactive mode compared to the previous model. buy air conditioner

In this regard, in the new version, the design of the buttons has been slightly redesigned to make full use of the increased display area:

Apple claims this is the most rugged model it has ever made. The new front display glass is 50% thicker in the center and flattened at the base for increased strength and increased crack resistance. The touchscreen is now integrated with the OLED panel. The novelty has an IP6X rating, which allows you not to worry about the possibility of dust getting inside the device.

The redesigned charging system charges the device 33% faster (when using a magnetic USB-C cable) compared to Watch 6. According to the manufacturer, charging in just 8 minutes is enough for 8 hours in sleep tracking mode, and in 45 minutes the watch dials 80% of the battery capacity. Battery life remained at 18 hours.

In terms of appearance, the device will be sold with us in an aluminum casing with five different colors to choose from.

There are no special changes in the hardware, the 64-bit processor and sensors in Watch 7 are similar to those installed in Watch 6. The watch is running watchOS 8, two new dials will be exclusive. Several new sports modes have been added. An interesting point is the watch tracking the beginning of the cycle of pedaling with a proposal to turn on the training mode, and in the event of a fall from the bike, the watch can send a call to the emergency service.

In general, the novelty is not revolutionary, but very interesting and I think it will enjoy no less popularity than the previous model. For the price in rubles, there is no information yet, on the American market the price starts at $ 399
