Apple Watch Series 11 is the ultimate health and fitness companion, empowering users with new insights into sleep quality with sleep score, adding to the robust suite of health features included in the device.

Featuring up to 24 hours of battery life and Ion-X glass that’s 2x more scratch-resistant, Apple Watch is more convenient than ever to wear throughout the day and night. watchOS 26 delivers more personalised ways to stay active, healthy, and connected with Workout Buddy powered by Apple Intelligence, the wrist flick gesture, new watch faces, and more.

Apple Watch Series 11 can be pre-ordered today, with availability beginning Friday, September 19.

Apple Watch Series 11 is available in aluminium in a new space gray, as well as jet black, rose gold, and silver, and also in polished titanium in natural, gold, and slate.

“Apple Watch is the world’s most popular watch, using advanced sensing capabilities to empower millions of people around the world to better understand their health simply by wearing it, while also serving as a fitness coach, message centre, mobile wallet, and beautiful timepiece,” said Stan Ng, Apple’s vice president of Apple Watch and Health Product Marketing. “With a powerful new sleep score, plus longer battery life, a more scratch-resistant glass display, and 5G cellular, all in a thin and comfortable design users love, Apple Watch Series 11 is an indispensable companion that supports users’ health, fitness, safety, and connectivity throughout the day and night.”

Longer Battery Life, More Durable Ion-X Glass, and 5G Cellular

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.1 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 aluminium models of Apple Watch Series 11 offers 2x more scratch resistance.2 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 vapour 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.

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. 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.
