Launch of Apple Watch Series 6 Black Unity Now Official

Launch of Apple Watch Series 6 Black

Apple is aware of multiple causes and racial equality is one of the aspects in which it has been placing the most emphasis in recent times. In fact, this coming February is the month of African American History, a fact that has motivated the company to launch new challenges for the Apple Watch and even a new limited edition of the Series 6 commemorating this event. Here we tell you all the details.

How is this new Apple Watch Series 6?

This new Apple Watch is not really different from any other of those presented in September last year. In functionalities it is identical and also in design, except for several aspects such as the strap that comes as standard, with the colors of the Pan-African flag and the back that includes Black Unity. It will be launched on the market from February 1 and will be available until the end of this 2021.

The strap can be purchased separately if desired, while the sphere that we see in the promotional covers corresponds to a novelty in watchOS 7.3, an operating system that will be available today with a new update that will reach compatible equipment. The price will be the same as that of the normal Apple Watch Series 6, starting from 429 euros in its 40 mm version and 479 euros in the 44 mm version. The color of the body of the device is space gray, with aluminum materials.

Context of this new watch

As we said before, Apple has announced various initiatives around this coming month in which all victims of racial violence are honored and unity among all is advocated. Among what the company has highlighted in its announcement is also a new selection of books and audiobooks in its Apple Books application with compilations of the best titles in which related stories are told. Also for the Apple Podcast app.

On Apple TV + we can enjoy special programs from the Oprah Winfrey program on the platform, chatting with journalist Isabel Wikerson, writer of the book “Casta” in which the origins of discontent on the part of African-American society regarding racism are described.

On the other hand, the new challenge that we will be able to overcome in February has been emphasized once again, with 7 days in a row in which we will have to close the movement ring to obtain a special badge under this Black Unity initiative.

Without a doubt, this is an initiative that will surely be applauded by millions of people around the world. As for the watch, we do not find functional novelties that differentiate it from the rest, but it is the less striking and surely it will also have a good level of sales in this special edition.
