The Apple Watch Series 6 could be among us very soon!
And though we don't know exactly what Apple has in store for the Series 6 Apple Watch, there are plenty of rumors -- and even a few hidden clues in the latest WatchOS 7 update to unpack in the meantime.
Longer battery life
The Apple Watch most likely will be getting a bigger battery this year. Aside from being one of the most requested features, there have been a plenty of rumors fueling backing this up, as well as a few hidden clues in the WatchOS 7 beta.

Apple did away with the 3D Touch feature in the new iPhone 11s in 2019 and replaced it with a Haptic Touch feature that relies on a long press rather than a hard press to control the interface.

More robust sleep tracking
A longer-lasting battery could also enable better sleep tracking features in the Series 6. Apple announced that it will be rolling out a new native sleep-tracking feature to the Apple Watch (Series 3 or above) with the update to WatchOS 7 in the fall.
Pulse oximeter to measure blood oxygen levels
Health has been a key growth category for the Apple Watch since its inception, most recently adding native sleep tracking, mobility metrics and hearing health alerts in WatchOS 7.

According to 9to5Mac, iOS 14 code snippets suggest the next Apple Watch will be able to detect blood oxygen levels and alert users if it detects levels below what's considered a "healthy" threshold, similar to what the watch already does with the high and low heart-rate alerts.
