Even though the screen keeps on. Apple claims the durability of this new smartwatch will not be more wasteful compared to previous products.

“The battery can last all day, for 18 hours,” said Apple Watch’s Vice President of Product Marketing Stan Ng, while introducing this product from the stage.

According to Ng, the Watch Series 5 battery can last a long time because the screen is always on using the type of Low-Temperature Polycrystalline Oxide (LTPO) panel specifically developed by Apple.

“LTPO dynamically refreshes the screen, between 60 Hz to 1 Hz, to save power,” he explained.

Apple Watch Series 5 still relies on various health features, such as heart rate monitoring via Electrocardiogram (ECG), fall detection, compass, to international emergency calls (SOS) by pressing and holding the side button.

According to Ng, international SOS calls to emergency numbers that apply in 150 countries can be done even if the user’s iPhone is not around.
