Connectivity and Sensors
The Apple Watch is equipped with Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n) and Bluetooth 4.0, allowing for basic wireless connectivity with an iPhone and other devices. NFC is included for easy Apple Pay transactions, one of the most celebrated features at the time. However, the lack of cellular connectivity, GPS, or a USB port highlights the limitations in terms of standalone functionality. It integrates essential sensors such as an accelerometer, gyro, and heart rate monitor, which were pivotal for tracking fitness and health data.
