Apple has announced when you'll be able to snag an Apple Watch Series 7. Pre-orders start this Friday, October 8th at 8AM ET. The device, which starts at $399, will be available one week later on October 15th.
The biggest change this year is a larger, always-on display. Apple has bumped up the case size options to 41mm and 45mm and reduced the bezel to 1.7mm. The latest user interface takes advantage of the larger screen, with a full, swipe-based QWERTY keyboard and two additional watch faces.
Battery life is the same as in Apple Watch Series 6. It should last up to 18 hours on a single charge, according to Apple, and the Series 7 will charge up to 33 percent faster. Oh, and there are more colors to choose from.
This year's edition of the Apple Watch is a bit more rugged than previous versions. It's the first time Apple has made a smartwatch with an IP6X dust resistance rating. The screen is said to be more crack-resistant because of the new design. Series 7 is still water resistant to 50 meters as well.
Other new features arrive by way of watchOS8.
