Longer battery life and more durable Ion-X glass
Apple Watch Series 11 now offers up to 24 hours of battery life with its thin and comfortable design, so it’s more convenient than ever to wear Apple Watch to sleep after a full day of use. Apple Watch Series 11 also supports fast charging, with just 15 minutes providing up to eight hours of battery life.
The thin, elegant design of Apple Watch is also incredibly durable, made to accompany users throughout the day, whether they are at the gym, running, or swimming. The cover glass of aluminum models of Apple Watch Series 11 offers 2x more scratch resistance.
Made from a unique Ion-X (ion-exchanged strengthened) glass — a custom, proprietary glass that is already the toughest in the industry — the display is now treated with a breakthrough Apple-designed ceramic coating that bonds to the glass at an atomic level through a physical vapor deposition process, significantly hardening the surface. The titanium models will continue to have a sapphire front crystal, the most scratch-resistant and crack-resistant material covering a display.

With a cellular plan, Apple Watch users can take calls, send messages, and even get help from emergency services when their iPhone isn’t with them.
Sleep score
Sleep is fundamental to a person’s health and critical to daily restoration. Apple Watch allows users to track sleep, and its powerful sensors capture data during sleep like heart rate, wrist temperature, blood oxygen, and respiratory rate, and even discover possible sleep apnea. Now, with watchOS 26, Apple Watch can help users understand the quality of their sleep and how to make it more restorative with a new sleep score feature.
