Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4: Users report skin irritation
Some owners of the Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 are reporting skin irritation under the sensors. Here's what Apple's materials list reveals.
With Apple Watch, Apple has defined the smartwatch category since the device's market launch on April 24, 2015. Today the lineup consists of three clearly positioned lines: Apple Watch SE as the affordable entry point, Apple Watch Series as the main everyday line and Apple Watch Ultra as the rugged model for outdoor and sports profiles. The focus lies on health and fitness features such as ECG, blood oxygen measurement, sleep tracking, hypertension notifications, sleep apnea detection, fall detection, Emergency SOS, and tight integration with Apple Fitness+ and the Health app. The watchOS operating system, the always-on display, the Digital Crown and a growing ecosystem of bands and third-party apps make Apple Watch a personal companion for iPhone users.
