Apple Watch Tricks iWatch S4 20 Things You Didn’t Know!
The number 5: digital crown
The series 4 also comes with a completely new re-engineered digital crown. so it doesn’t physically press anymore, instead, it gives you a haptic feedback similar to the iPhone 7, or the iPhone 8’s home button when you do press it. And this also applies to scrolling, by the way, so you don’t get feedback when you’re pressing through the menus which is pretty cool. we get this extra vibration that you didn’t have on the previous generation.
That’s quite nice to have and also it’s not a full ride crowning or on the GPS facility model, so we only get a red ring and if you get the GPS only models. the one without the cell network those ones actually have a black ring.
The number 6: water resistance and warranty
another fun fact, is when it comes to water resistance, so same as before we get 50-meter water resistance but previously it was not covered under warranty, by the way, so you know it was one resistant.
But if it broke, they tell us: it’s your fault, which is stupid. Because apple encourages you to use this underwater, even have workouts underwater, which is crazy.
but now it doesn’t really say anywhere on Apple’s website that it’s not covered under warranty, so I’m guessing that it is at least to some extent.
This could be thanks to the haptic feedback engine that we get for the crown, which doesn’t click anymore, and this actually helps improve water resistance. so I’m really hoping that this time it’s covered under warranty because again it’s not mentioned that this time on Apple’s website.
