Apple Watch Series 10 models up to $149 off just as new Blood Oxygen feature makes triumphant return in the U.S.

Series 10/$149 off

Big Apple news just hit – a redesigned Blood Oxygen feature is making a triumphant return after a long legal battle forced it to remove feature from its Apple Watch experience. Some folks were not happy about this and it might even deterred some to upgrade to apple Watch 10 or Ultra 2, so let’s look how to score one at well below the list price. 

In a statement to 9to5Mac this morning, Apple confirmed the feature will be coming back in a resigned state starting later today, as part of the iOS 18.6.1 and watchOS 11.6.1 release. 

Apple said this update will be live for “Apple Watch Series 9, Series 10, and Ultra 2 users in the U.S. who don’t have the original Blood Oxygen feature.”

You can get a complete rundown of how the new Blood Oxygen feature will work once it goes live/you have updated your devices accordingly over at 9to5Mac.
