Hey, what's up guys, Stephen Cults of Mac here and this is the Apple Watch Series 2
0:07
It looks identical to the original Apple Watch but it's got some under the hood improvements
0:11
which make it a lot more appealing to a lot of people. Here I have the 42mm rose gold case with the space orange nylon band
0:19
So let's get unboxing. On the top of the box you'll find the usual little folder full of the quick start guides
0:27
and warranty information but unfortunately no Apple stickers. Moving them to the side and we've got the Apple Watch Series 2 itself, which as I've
0:38
already mentioned looks identical to last year's Apple Watch unless you go for the
0:41
Nike edition which is available in late October. Also in the box you've got the power adapter which is a lot nicer than the standard one
0:48
that comes with the iPhones and iPads as it folds away neatly along with the magnetic charger
0:54
If we take the protective cover off the Apple Watch you'll see there's no physical differences
0:58
with Series 2 compared to the original model which if like me isn't a bad thing if you
1:02
already like the design. Internally though there's a few big upgrades. Firstly there's the new dual core S2 processor which is 50% faster so you're not going to
1:11
be waiting a lifetime for apps to load. But of course we'll put that to the test with our full review which is coming out this Monday
1:23
There's also the addition of GPS which is perfect for runners and cyclists as they can
1:27
now track their distance without carrying an iPhone. Something that should really have been there from the start
1:32
And finally which is the feature I wanted the most after new Apple Watch faces is that
1:36
now the Apple Watch is waterproof up to 50 metres so you can take it for a swim
1:41
Which again we'll put to the test for the full review. Well that's it for this video but if you'd like a chance to win the upgraded Apple Watch
