2022 Tech Review: The Apple Watch 7 Series. #davidlim

The Apple Watch 7 is basically the Watch 6 with a slightly larger screen and the ability to charge faster – most people will likely choose the Watch 7 because of the new attractive colors it comes in, rather than any new features. While it still packs a wide variety of impressive features, and is a superb second screen for an iPhone user (as well as being genuinely useful to anyone who needs the ECG or blood oxygen monitor regularly) the Watch 7 doesn’t offer the battery life, fitness or design overhaul that it needs to inspire an upgrade.

The Apple Watch 7  replaces the Watch 6 as the premium model in Apple's wearable range, joining the Watch SE and Watch 3 for those wanting a second screen to complement their iPhone.

It's not that much of an upgrade over the previous model – the main difference we'd like to point out in our Apple Watch 7 review is the screen, which is 20% larger. It still packs the impressive feature set that makes it worthy of your consideration, and it's definitely the best Apple Watch yet, and the best smartwatch... but only marginally.

While most will be buying this Watch so that they don’t have to take their phone out of their pocket as often, or because they want a decent fitness companion, you're also getting good heart rate monitoring and a range of useful apps, all wrapped in an attractive package.

What's new?
Finishes: Aluminium (five colours), Stainless steel (three colours), Titanium (two colours)
Special models: Nike+, Hermès, (Product)Red
IP6X dust-proof, 5ATM waterproof (to 50m)
Case sizes: 41mm and 45mm

In terms of design the Series 7's approach is much like the Series 6: the casing design is the same (albeit larger), the digital crown is the same, even the bands are the same (which is good, as it means older ones will still fit).

There are both Wi-Fi and Cellular options, available in new 41mm and 45mm case sizes, along with special edition Nike and Hermès variants. There's a lot of choice, with three material options - aluminium, stainless steel, titanium - available in a variety of colours if you want something extra eye-catching.

The aluminum cases get some new colours too: there's Midnight, which is black; Starlight, which is silver with a hint of gold; Green, which is more akin to the Midnight Green colourway from the iPhone 11; and the (Product)Red model is more of a bright cherry hue. There are various new bands to match these new colours too.

Upping the stakes on the durability front, the Apple Watch Series 7 is IP6X dust-resistant, to go alongside its 5ATM waterproof rating. That should make it considerably more "beach ready", as dust, sand, and even water (to 50 metres) are no concern for this wearable.

Is the Apple Watch Series 7 worth buying?

8. Turn off excessive vibration:

Vibration kills your battery life. Try to avoid vibration mode. For app notification, you can turn it off in Settings> Notification and status bar> App notification> Choose only apps you want them to vibrate.

9. Turn off auto update:

Kia ora and hello again!  To save battery life on your iPhone XS or XS Max, simply follow the steps listed below:


1. Turn off notification from less used apps:

Real notifications are handy in some cases like email. But there is plenty of less important app that wants notification permission. Turn off those notification permissions. To do this Go to settings> Notification and status bar> App preferences. Choose and set important push message such as WhatsApp, what are enabled and disable other apps which you don't use often.

2. Turn off GPS:

GPS is another battery draining cause. Many apps request location permission using GPS. Turn it off to save your battery. You can use Wi-Fi-based location rather than GPS

3. Enable battery saver in Security app:

In MIUI 8 security apps comes with lots of feature including battery saver. Enable battery saver in security saver to get ultimate battery experiences.

4. Set/Adjust Screen Brightness:

Automatic Brightness: It is a good choice for adjusting screen brightness. But setting a constant brightness also save battery life. To set constant brightness Personally I prefer constant brightness and you can access them in Settings> Display> Brightness level.

5. Turn off vibration on press:

Every time you press on phone display it makes vibration. It is obviously power consuming. Turn off vibration on press to prolong battery life

6. Turn off Wi-Fi:

Turn off Wi-Fi when not needed. It is not mandatory to turn on Wi-Fi 24/7. It consumes huge battery.

7. Turn off Sync:

Syncing is also drained battery. Though it is important for apps like email but turn it off when not needed. You can turn in off in Settings>Sync.

13. Keep phone updated:

Updated ROM comes with optimization and bug fixes. So, keep your phone updated to prolong battery life.

14. Turn on Power saver mode:

You can simply swipe the notification bar and turn on the battery saver mode so that the battery usage is optimized.
