Apple Watch Series 7 Aluminum Connectivity and Sensors

Connectivity and Sensors

The Apple Watch Series 7 Aluminum supports GSM, HSPA, and LTE network technologies, offering extensive connectivity options. However, it lacks compatibility with 5G networks, which, while not crucial yet, might be seen as a limitation by some users. It includes comprehensive positioning systems such as GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, QZSS, and BDS for accurate location tracking. The watch also supports NFC, enabling convenient wireless transactions and interactions. With Ultra Wideband (UWB) support, the device engages in precise spatial awareness, enhancing functions like AirDrop and device locating.

For communication purposes, it features WLAN Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, dual-band connectivity, and Bluetooth 5.0, ensuring robust wireless data transmission. However, there’s no radio or USB port, emphasizing its focus on wireless functionalities. The Series 7 includes a well-rounded array of sensors: an accelerometer, gyroscope, heart rate monitor, barometer, always-on altimeter, compass, SpO2, and VO2max measurements, which underscore its capacity as a comprehensive health and fitness tracker.
