The Apple Watch Series 12 is Apple's health-focused smartwatch, here in a 42 mm aluminium case with a Sport Band and cellular connectivity. It adds a daily Readiness score, short-interval HRV readings, wrist temperature and blood oxygen sensing to the usual activity and workout tracking. Owners praise the accuracy of its heart-rate and sleep data and the convenience of cellular for leaving the phone behind. Rivals such as Samsung's Galaxy Watch and Garmin's Venu line offer longer battery life, but the Series 12 stays the most polished iPhone companion.

The Apple Watch Series 12 is a smartwatch with health, fitness and safety features. This version has a gold aluminum case, a 42 mm size, a Sand Sport Band in S/M and 5G cellular connectivity. It has an OLED touchscreen and the S11 chip.
For health tracking, it uses improved optical and electrical sensors. It measures heart rate in the background every five seconds and checks heart rate variability every five minutes, which gives data on stress, recovery and sleep quality. The Vitals app shows overnight health data, and the watch can measure blood oxygen. ECG and Cycle Tracking apps are also available. A daily Readiness score is based on recent activity, vitals and sleep.
For workouts, it offers advanced metrics, Target Pace, Heart Rate Zones and Workout Buddy, which uses Apple Intelligence on a paired iPhone. It also has a more accurate pedometer. It detects hard falls and severe car crashes, calls emergency services, shares your location and alerts your chosen contacts. With 5G, it can make calls and send messages. You can also listen to music and podcasts with AirPods from the watch without carrying your iPhone.
