The Apple Watch 6 has both GPS and cellular capabilities, allowing you to call and get directions without your phone. It also has all the things you love about Apple products, like music streaming and Apple Pay. But what sets it above its predecessors is its health-focused features; Fitbit users who are having trouble syncing their fitness watch are looking to Apple as an alternative.
Built with an intuitive sensor, the Apple Watch Series 6 can measure your blood oxygen levels, which the U.S. National Library of Medicine says is helpful to do if you have trouble breathing. The Series 6 also monitors your heart rate and lets you take an electrocardiogram test that measures the strength and rhythm of your heart beat right on your wrist.
You can also monitor how well you snooze. You can see how long you were asleep, take note of sleep trends, and discover new ways to help you get your best rest.

“I have owned more watches than I can readily count through the decades but, none of them are as helpful in tracking what is important to measuring my overall health and fitness,” another shopper chimed in. “I particularly love the blood oxygen sensor, heart rate monitor, and sleep manager. I also enjoy the fact it automatically tells me when I have washed my hands long enough in this current pandemic. It is well worth the investment.”
