According to Gurman, he believes that both the Apple Watch Series 8 and a new rugged version will feature body temperature detection. The Apple Watch SE 2, on the other hand, is unlikely to receive this feature. The body temperature feature won’t give you a specific reading — like with a forehead or wrist thermometer — but it should be able to tell if it thinks you have a fever. He or she might then recommend talking to your doctor or using a special thermometer. The presence of a new sensor in the Apple Watch Series 8 is exciting, although it is important to note that most of them need FDA approval. For now, it sounds like the body temperature sensor coming later this year will work similar to the blood oxygen sensor, which can give you an idea of what’s going on with your body and not necessarily give you medical information. . Aside from the ECG app, which is approved by the FDA (and approved by other organizations around the world), Apple can’t advertise that the Apple Watch can actually measure your blood oxygen, which is like the same approach it will take with the body temperature sensor as described by Mark Gurman above. In the newsletter, Bloomberg’s reporter says that other hardware changes will “likely” be minor. As reported last week, the Apple Watch Series 8 is rumored to feature the same S6 chip found in the Apple Watch Series 6, making this the first Apple Watch to feature the same processor for the third year in a row. Last but not least, Gurman heard insider chatter about the updated displays on the new high-end models, which he hopes will be even brighter.
