The Apple Watch is considered the best-selling watch in the world. In addition to a redesign, the Apple Watch Series 4 boasted the ECG function. But the improved gyro sensor should not be underestimated either.
The Apple Watch Series 4 has the S4 chip with 64-bit built in. This is twice as fast as the S3 chip. In addition, the acceleration sensor has been extremely redesigned. It can now detect when a user falls. If the user then becomes motionless, the Apple Watch sends an emergency call including location. Now some users have decided to test this great feature. Almost without success. The Series 4 is not that easy to outsmart.
"It looks like you had a bad fall"
First, the function must be switched on. For people over the age of 65, this happens automatically. This new detection can be activated in the Watch app under Emergency SOS. The Apple Watch works intelligently and can distinguish a dangerous situation from normal exercise. The Series 4 also recognizes certain movement patterns.
If you fall twenty times in a row, you won't get the Apple Watch's attention. Although the simulators really tried hard in their tests. The smartwatch only gave a warning when one of the testers hit hard ground. The warning "It looks like you've had a bad fall" then appeared. You can now respond with "I fell, but I'm fine" or "Call emergency services". If you are immobile for one minute after a fall, the Apple Watch Series 4 would start a 15-second countdown and then automatically notify the emergency services and emergency contact.
