Battery life in Low Power Mode is based on the following use: 600 time checks, 180 notifications, 30 minutes of app use, and a 60-minute workout with music playback from Apple Watch via Bluetooth, over the course of 36 hours; Apple Watch Series 10 (GPS) usage includes connection to iPhone via Bluetooth during the entire 36-hour test; Apple Watch Series 10 (GPS + Cellular) usage includes on-demand 4G LTE connection and 28 hours of connection to iPhone via Bluetooth over the course of 36 hours. Testing conducted by Apple in August 2024 using preproduction Apple Watch Series 10 (GPS) and Apple Watch Series 10 (GPS + Cellular), each paired with an iPhone; all devices tested with prerelease software. Battery life varies by use, configuration, mobile network, signal strength and many other factors; actual results will vary.

  7. Charge times are from 0 to 80 per cent and 0 to 100 per cent using the included Apple Watch Magnetic Fast Charger to USB-C Cable. Testing conducted by Apple in August 2024 using preproduction Apple Watch Series 10 (GPS) and Apple Watch Series 10 (GPS + Cellular), each paired with an iPhone; all devices tested with prerelease software, Apple Watch Magnetic Fast Charger to USB-C Cable (Model A2515) and Apple 20W USB-C Power Adapter (Model A2305). Fast-charge testing conducted with drained Apple Watch units. Times measured from the appearance of the Apple logo as the unit started up. Charge time varies with region, settings and environmental factors; actual results will vary.

  8. Emergency SOS requires a mobile network connection or Wi‑Fi calling with an internet connection from your Apple Watch or nearby iPhone.

  9. Requires Apple Watch Series 7, SE, Ultra or later. For a list of supported countries and regions, see apple.com/au/watchos/feature-availability.

  10. Apple Watch Series 10 has a water resistance rating of 50 metres under ISO standard 22810:2010. This means that it may be used for shallow-water activities like snorkelling or swimming in a pool or ocean. Apple Watch Series 10 should not be used for scuba diving or waterskiing, or other activities involving high-velocity water or submersion below shallow depth. Water resistance is not a permanent condition and can diminish over time. For additional information see support.apple.com/en-au/HT205000.

  11. Apple Watch Series 10 is rated IP6X dust-resistant.

  12. Carrier plan required for cellular service. Contact your service provider for more details. Connection may vary based on network availability. International roaming is not supported. Check apple.com/au/watch/cellular for participating carriers and eligibility. See support.apple.com/en-au/HT207578 for additional setup instructions.

  13. Ultra Wideband availability varies by region.

  14. Not all features will be available if the Apple Watch is set up through Apple Watch For Your Kids. Carrier plan required for cellular service. Contact your service provider for more details. Check apple.com/au/watch/cellular for participating wireless carriers and eligibility.

  15. Data is accurate as of product launch.

  16. Carbon-neutral combinations of this product include Apple Watch Series 10 paired with Sport Loop, Milanese Loop, Braided Solo Loop and Pride Edition Braided Solo Loop.

  17. Product recycled or renewable content is the mass of certified recycled material relative to the overall mass of the device, not including packaging or in‑box accessories.

  18. Our manufacturing electricity is sourced from clean electricity, including a mix of supplier and Apple clean energy projects.

  19. 50 per cent of all carbon-neutral products by weight are planned, as of product launch, to be shipped via non‑air modes of transportation over the lifetime of the products.

  20. Carbon reductions are calculated against a baseline scenario: 1) No use of clean electricity for manufacturing or product use, beyond what is already available on the latest modelled grid (based on regional emissions factors). 2) Apple’s carbon intensity of key materials as of 2015 (our baseline year for our 2030 product carbon neutrality goal). Carbon intensity of materials reflects use of recycled content and production technology. 3) Apple’s average mix of transportation modes (air, rail, ocean, ground) by product line across three years (fiscal years 2017 to 2019) to best capture the baseline transportation emissions of our products.

  21. For more information about our use of carbon credits, please see the Product Environmental Report.

  22. All cobalt claims are on a mass balance allocation.

  23. Based on retail packaging as shipped by Apple. Breakdown of US retail packaging by weight. Adhesives, inks and coatings are excluded from our calculations of plastic content and packaging weight.

  24. Apple is matching 100 per cent of expected electricity consumption only for carbon-neutral aluminium Apple Watch Series 10, Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch Ultra 2 combinations.

  25. Apple Watch Series 10 meets California Energy Commission’s Energy Efficiency Standards for Small Battery Charger Systems as outlined in the California Code of Regulations.

  26. Apple’s Regulated Substances Specification describes Apple’s restrictions on the use of certain chemical substances in materials in Apple products, accessories, manufacturing processes and packaging used for shipping products to Apple’s end‑customers. Restrictions are derived from international laws or directives, regulatory agencies, eco‑label requirements, environmental standards and Apple policies. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates except for AC power cords in India, Thailand (for two‑prong AC power cords) and South Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement. Apple products comply with the European Union Directive 2011/65/EU and its amendments, including exemptions for the use of lead such as high‑temperature solder. Apple is working to phase out the use of these exempted substances for new products where technically possible.

Apple Watch Ultra 2, Apple Watch Series 10 and Apple Watch SE require iPhone Xs or later with iOS 18 or later.
