Furthermore, we're pleased to announce the introduction of a Low Power Mode on the Apple Watch. This innovative feature extends battery life to an impressive 36 hours, making it easier than ever to stay connected throughout your day without worrying about running out of juice.
Last but not least, let's talk about the new software tweaks that have been added to the Workout app. These changes promise to deliver more advanced tracking capabilities, allowing users to fine-tune their fitness goals and monitor progress with greater ease.

watch bands to go with it and we're going to talk about all the new features and everything that you get inside of the box so let's jump in all right so let's I thought this box trips me up every time I don't know what's which part to get maybe it's ah there we go nice and clean I got it oh wait a minute is this oh this is the midnight oh that's exciting actually so we've got it in the midnight aluminum case and we of course have uh some bands okay so we got the watch here oh man midnight is dope now if you guys remember the MacBook Air with the new M2 Chip with the midnight color it looks really cool because it looked black but if you look close enough it's kind of blue as well so in the right lighting you can see that it's blue but from afar it looks black so you can kind of make it match anything I love this now the midnight is dope but there are some other colors as well so for the aluminum cases we do have the midnight there's also going to be Starlight as well as silver and for stainless steel you've got gold graphite and silver of course the starting price of the watch is 3.99 and it goes up depending on the size color band all that good stuff and in the Box you also get some paperwork quick start guide things warranty information safety all that stuff and you also get this guy right here so this is your Apple watch charger now this is what allows it to do the fast charging because it's also got USB C all right so that's the Box let's throw a band on here what do we what are we going for fellas we got the standard silicone band we've got some sport Loops over here and we also have a Nike sport Loop kind of like in the middle one night I was leaning towards this but the midnight you're right let's just you know what let's just take a closer look at all of them this is the midnight sport band so I wonder if there's going to be a hint of blue with this as well oh there is a hint of the blue this is kind of nice that's so crazy they really nail down the black look but like I'm really blue it's nuts dang my foot is kind of this now okay so this is the sport Loop this one's got some like green in it Dom do you like it that's okay I was expecting more from that one this is the blue game Royal slash midnight navy Nike sport Loop I like the look of this and it's got the just do it for all you doers out there go on do it all right guys so we've got our series eight all set up over here so we're gonna talk about all the new things one of the newest things you probably can see it right now uh you can actually change some watch faces now you can customize a little bit more my personal favorite watch face is this one right here it's the modular watch face what's nice is now you can add a background color to it you have all these other options so depending on the look that you're going for you can match even more which I'm stoked about uh this green one right here you know come on guys you know me I love this interestingly enough I had the background on my uh phone it's like it's like meant to be so from a physical standpoint this looks very much like the series seven there's been no changes to the hardware whatsoever except for this new temperature sensor so now there's a temperature sensor inside of here that can take the wrist temperature of your body and this is a feature that's going to be more geared towards women or at least as of right now it has more benefits for women it'll be able to be used in a couple of cool ways so it's got two temperature sensors one on the inside one on the outside I believe and it's going to be great for those who are family planning so if you're family planning uh it's going to be able to help detect or track your ovulation which is actually critical to know when it comes to planning for a baby it can do it automatically jump into the health app and you can see all that information to help you plan accordingly and I'm pretty sure that's going to be a game changer for a lot of the folks who plan to use this It's Gonna Save a lot of time I just love that Apple's adding all of these like health related features a lot of these things you don't know you needed until it's there and it's kind of like whoa that's actually really useful there's all these different things that Apple's like making fall detection all this stuff it's all encrypted even though it's health related it'll all be just stored right on your device completely secure and can choose if you want to share it with your physician or your doctors I think that stuff is awesome and speaking of fall detection Apple actually added another feature in case of some kind of accident and that is Crash detection so Apple actually added this to the entire Apple watch lineup even the new phones they all have crash detection built into them now and what happens with that is if you're wearing your Apple watch and you happen to get into a severe crash in your car it'll use the accelerometer the gyroscope I think the microphones all that stuff and machine learning to kind of understand that everything that's happening at this one point sounds like a cry sounds like you could be in danger and the watch will contact emergency services as well as your emergency contacts to let them know you were in an accident and because this thing also has GPS built into it it'll be able to give the emergency responders your exact location so they know exactly what's going on I think that's I mean who was asking for that me neither and they just made it and it's like oh that's actually extremely useful now if you are used to using the app watch maybe for workouts uh if you're really serious about your workouts they actually added a few changes to the workout app I think there's more advanced workouts that you can now track I mean I go to the gym every now and then but I'm not I'm not there yet where I'm like tracking everything I do so like maybe I gotta get better maybe maybe that's why the gains as they should be right Carl nice there bro I appreciate you cousin now we are seeing a lot of software tweaks so another one of those is actually the redesigned Compass so this is completely redesigned with a couple of cool new features one is the Waypoint you can add a waypoint for your current location don't show my location Dom you can't have nobody up in here man so maybe there's a body of water and you need to refill your canteen or something you can mark that location as a waypoint and as you move away from it you still have it in your compass app so you can track exactly where that location is should make it really easy to find certain spots I think that's pretty cool there's actually another feature called backtrack that you can just tap you can start your backtrack and what this will do is it'll basically keep track of your steps as you go places so if you're outdoors and you start this and you go on your path and you forget how you got there you can just use backtrack to find your way back you can retrace your steps if you if you're somebody who really forgets where they parked their car all the time you can just use the backtrack feature and then you can find your way you know that's a a way I'd use it because Lord knows I ain't hiking I ain't gonna happen and if you're a traveler international roaming is now available on the Apple watch uh I don't know if you can forget your phone or something or whatever the situation may be you got that feature too now something that's pretty cool is there's going to be a low power mode now on the Apple watch which extends the battery life to basically double so you go from 18 hours of standard use to now 36 hours which is wild now you do sacrifice a couple of features uh like the always on display but you still get the important stuff like activity tracking and even fall detection but yeah guys that's pretty much all of the new things with the new Apple watch series hey what do you guys think let me know with the
