Hey Yalll.
It is rumored, that the Apple Watch gets the long awaited blood pressure feature in 2024-2025.
Do you think the X, the redesigned Watch, will have it? If you count years, the X will release in 2024.
Im curious wether they bring it in 2024, rumors are more leading towards 2025.
 
It's anybody's guess. I'm guessing that if blood pressure monitoring was coming in 2024 we'd have heard more rumours about this by now.
 
next year's AW - many rumors, many possibilities ...
I've said it before in the various rumors threads, Apple needs to step up its health sensor game ...
But speculating now about something in 2024 or 2025 is ... just speculation

I mean, Galaxy Watch has relatively accurate blood pressure reading...
 
I believe it will come with a killing feature and the most possible thing is BP monitoring.
 
I mean, Galaxy Watch has relatively accurate blood pressure reading...
from what I've read, accuracy was so so, it requires at least monthly calibration, and for all I know, it was offered last year but it is not available in this years watch anymore, wonder why...

Apple will not rerelease a feature that requires ongoing calibration, imagine the discussions here, they will also not release a "so so" accuracy feature. and say a "trend" like eg "your blood pressure is above normal/baseline ..." is rather useless (think eg of the wrist temp reading in AW8/Ultra)

The technology exists, when/if Apple finds that it is worthwhile to put into the AW - who knows

Take a look at this:
