Watch OS2 will support native apps, that'll run directly on the watch. In addition, it'll deliver much better performance.
OS2 has given the AI genie, that is your 'Siri', a boost so that Glances, Home Kit and Maps can be managed easily alongwith providing direct access to workouts.

  • GPS                                                                                                                                                             

Apple Watch will include a new Wi-Fi chip which can be used to track Apple Watch devices using Wi-Fi router triangulation tech. Though the Watch will not feature GPS but will provide more independence from the iPhone too.


  • FaceTime camera                                                                                                                              


The second generation Apple Watch will have a video camera, allowing users to make and receive video FaceTime calls in addition to the audio ones.  

                                                                                                                    

  • iPhone-free activities                                                                                                                       
Apple Watch 2 comes with a "tether-less" feature that allows apple to do more without Bluetooth
connection to your phone. The "more dynamic" wireless chip will enable the Smart Watch to perform more without even connecting to your phone via Bluetooth. Bingo!

The new iPhone SE



Apple introduced a new member in the iPhone family, the iPhone SE, a 4-inch screen device.
The suffix SE stands for Special Edition. But it's not completely new. It's a budget device, an updated version of the iPhone 5S.
     

Specifications                                                                                        

The specifications include 64-bit A9 chip that offers amazingly high speed. It also has M9 motion co-processor that can support intensive graphics mobile gaming. It boasts a high definition Retina display, 4k video, Wi-Fi connectivity and  Touch ID.                                    

Camera                                                                                            

iPhone SE has a 12-megapixel rear camera, with advanced noise reduction and better face detection feature that results in better picture as  a whole. Users can also capture Live Photos on the device. Other advancements include the "True Tone" lighting technology that automatically makes the display three times brighter in low light for brighter selfies.

Colors                                                                                                

The so-called new iPhone SE will come in "rose gold", space grey, silver and gold.  
               

Price                                                                                                 

iPhone SE is launched with a cost of $359.It's the cheapest iPhone that has the minimum debut releasing cost.


Though the new advancements seem to be exciting, but sticking with the old 5's design is a major loophole in the new release, mainly for those who have previously used the 5 series.
