Q: Does it have fall down detection?
A: yes it does and it works. About a week after putting it on, I was in the kitchen and was kneeling down to get something out of a cabinet. I lost my footing and fell down. The watch quickly stated that it appears I fell down and gave me a time to state I was OK or it will call emergency services. It worked like a charm....
A: Charger included.
Q: Is this the only face this watch has or are there more
A: There’s more faces that you can imagine the sky is the limit
Q: can you run a EKG with this model?
A: I CHECKED APPLE EKG WITH CARDIOLOGIST EKG ALMOST THE SAME NUMBERS VERY ACCURATE , CHECKED BY TWO PROFFESIONALS
Q: does the apple series 8 watch come with a charger?
A: Yes and no…you’ll get a charging cable that has a round magnetic connection to affix on the back of your series 8 watch, as pictured on the left. However, the cord for this cable does not come with a plug-in cube, such as the one pictured on the right. You can purchase the plug-in cube through Best Buy or most other retailers. The older style of wall plug-in cube for Apple products will not work as you must get a USB-C versus a standard USB. The charging cord for the watch will plug into other USB-C sources such as a laptop or dock but I’ve noticed my watch charges much faster with the wall outlet plug-in.
Q: can you talk and text with phone near by?
A: Yes, in Bluetooth range Sound is great, very handy I even use it while biking
A: Go to the watch app on your phone, select general, about and scroll to the bottom and select SEID.
Q: Does this model take blood pressure readings
A: No not blood pressure readings just oxygen levels
