What to give for New Year’s: for yourself or your loved ones? In the pre-holiday rush, it’s easy to make the wrong choice, but there’s a fail-safe option — the Apple Watch. Many dream of finding this coveted gadget under the Christmas tree, and as we know, dreams come true on New Year’s Eve. The smart watch will make the holiday unforgettable and definitely change life for the better. Here’s what they can do and why everyone will need one in 2025.
10 magical features of the Apple Watch
- Time Display and Alarm Clock
Let’s start with the basics. The Apple Watch will tell you the time, wake you up with a clear ringtone or a soft vibration. Is it uncomfortable to sleep with your watch? Charge it during the night in “Night Mode.” Just plug it in and place it on your nightstand — the Apple Watch will turn into a bedside clock. And when you want to check the time, just gently tap the surface next to the gadget. - Personal Assistant
The Apple Watch will remind you about important calls and meetings, give you the weather forecast, and provide stock market updates — it has apps like “Weather,” “Stocks,” and many more. Siri can set a timer or call someone hands-free — just speak your request.
If you’re looking for a gift for your boss from the entire team this New Year, consider the Apple Watch.
- Always Connected
Viewing notifications, answering calls, text messages, social media, and messenger messages — all of this takes up a lot of time. The Apple Watch saves you time and trains you to live without constantly holding your smartphone. You can write or dictate responses on your watch and even talk without taking out your phone. It’s especially convenient when you’re driving or on public transport.
- Learn, Learn, and Learn Again
What to give a child for New Year’s? A schoolchild will definitely be thrilled with the Apple Watch! And you’ll be able to keep them busy with studying. The “School Time” mode limits the gadget’s functions during lessons or when doing homework to avoid distractions.
For students, the Apple Watch helps to never be late for classes, balance study, rest, and physical activity, and even come in handy during exams. You can take a photo of your notes in advance and, in critical moments, open your cheat sheet on the watch.
- Personal Trainer
Staying fit is another great reason to buy the Apple Watch 10. It tracks literally every step and every calorie burned. If you sit for too long, a gentle vibration will remind you it’s time to take a walk.
You can track personal progress in the “Activity” app. The owner of the gadget will soon find themselves taking the stairs instead of the elevator, walking more, and riding a bike. And when using the “Workout” mode, you can monitor the effectiveness of your workouts.
- Submersion up to 6 Meters Right on the Watch
The Apple Watch 10 has something new — it can withstand extended submersion in water up to 6 meters deep, making it ideal for snorkeling and diving. The gadget can measure depth and water temperature, helping you navigate the underwater world. Even if you don’t dive, water resistance is still a great plus.
- So That Everyone Stays Healthy!
If you’re thinking about what to give your parents for New Year’s, add smartwatches to your list of options. It’s a great idea because they monitor heart rate, body temperature, blood oxygen levels, take ECGs, alert about heart rhythm irregularities, and track sleep quality around the clock. The Apple Watch Series 10 even detects sleep apnea and signals when breathing is disrupted during sleep.
When it’s time to relax, the “Breathe” app will help. The watch also supports apps for yoga and meditation.
- Safety Above All
What to give your grandmother? That’s right — safety. The Apple Watch will ease worries about loved ones: it will automatically call emergency services and alert relatives if the wearer is injured. In the “Health” app, you can record details such as name, age, blood type, and emergency contacts. Plus, grandma will no longer make you anxious by ignoring calls — the watch will alert her with a vibration on her wrist, ensuring she doesn’t miss any calls.
If an accident occurs, the gadget will detect it and call for help automatically. The “Stay in Touch” feature is useful for parents — it sends notifications when the child reaches school.
- Payment Straight from Your Wrist
With Apple Pay, you can make purchases using the Apple Watch. Simply bring the gadget close to the terminal, unlock it in advance, and press the side button twice. There’s no need to carry cash, credit cards, or even your iPhone.
- In the New Year and Beyond, with Music
Sync your Apple Watch with AirPods and enjoy your favorite tracks during walks and workouts. Add albums and playlists from your iPhone using the Apple Watch app, or download audio directly to your watch through the “Music” app with an Apple Music subscription. You can skip tracks, select playlists, and adjust volume right from your wrist.
The Apple Watch is also perfect for unlocking your Mac, controlling your Apple TV, operating your phone’s camera, and even managing your smart home.
