The Series 7 will have the largest Apple Watch display so far, thanks to its thinner screen borders. It will be available in two sizes with a larger 45mm or smaller 41mm models being released.
Alongside the extra screen size, it will also be the first Apple Watch to have a keyboard, so you can respond to messages among other things.
It also has a stronger, more crack-resistant design, an IP6X certification for resistance to dust.
You can still use the Apple Watch Series 7 to make calls, answer texts and receive alerts from your iPhone as well as usual features including heart and blood oxygen monitoring and fitness tracking.
However Apple hasn’t managed to improve the 18-hour battery life, but it has made charging much faster, with recharging now around 33 percent quicker than before.
