7 Reasons to Wait for the Apple Watch 5 & 5 Reasons Not To
Wait for More Health Tracking | |||||||||||||

The Apple Watch 4 adds in an upgraded heart rate sensor and includes an ECG sensor, which is a very nice upgrade. It might be enough for you, but for some users, it's just a start. If you're hoping for more advanced health features like glucose monitoring on the Apple Watch or even deeper heart monitoring that's something that you will need to wait for. Apple owns a patent for non-invasive glucose monitoring on the Apple Watch, but it's not a publicly available feature yet. This is something that perhaps could make it into a 2019 Apple Watch, but some Apple patents don't see the real world for years. If these sound like features that you want, then it may be worth waiting. | |||||||||||||
