I tested the Apple Watch Series 12 heart-rate claims against my gold-standard Polar strap
· By Endurance Wire
Apple’s twelfth-generation smartwatch arrived last Wednesday, and while it may look the same as the previous iteration, it has a few heart-healthy changes under the hood that make it stand out. I’ve been wearing the Apple Watch Series 12 for a week, and updated heart rate sensing (powered by Apple’s Health Sensing System ) is the feature that stands out to me. Even better, it comes on both the Series 12 and Ultra 4 . This system is at the heart (pun intended) of Apple’s new Readiness score and longevity features arriving later this year .
