Here is a 185-word summary of the key points from the article: The upcoming release of watchOS 26 and restored blood oxygen monitoring are the biggest news for Apple Watches right now. The flagship Apple Watch Series 10 and the rugged Apple Watch Ultra 2 will get these features, while the budget Apple Watch SE retains its own advantages.
