如何预购新款 Apple Watch Series 12 和 Ultra 4
Longer battery life and a more capable chipset (that enables a host of new features) are the main reasons to upgrade. 更长的电池续航和性能更强的芯片组（支持一系列新功能）是此次升级的主要原因。
The iPhone Duo was the unequivocal star of Apple’s “Surprise and shine” event, but not for those who were mostly paying attention to news on wearables. Thankfully, Apple had a lot to share about its new Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4. There’s no update to the SE model for 2026, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing (the SE 3 rules). Also, no price changes either, which can’t be said for the entire iPhone lineup. iPhone Duo 无疑是苹果“Surprise and shine”发布会上的主角，但对于那些主要关注可穿戴设备新闻的人来说并非如此。好在苹果发布了关于新款 Apple Watch Series 12 和 Ultra 4 的大量信息。2026 年款 SE 型号没有更新，但这未必是坏事（SE 3 表现依然出色）。此外，价格也没有变动，这一点在整个 iPhone 产品线中是难能可贵的。
While both new watches look similar to their predecessors, there are a number of updates under the hood that might intrigue some people enough to warrant a preorder. My colleague Victoria Song got hands-on with both smartwatches and runs down the biggest changes, from the Audio Intelligence features made possible by the S11 chip (included in the Series 12 and Ultra 4) to the possible impact of its improved sensors and tracking capabilities. 虽然这两款新手表的外观与前代产品相似，但内部进行了一系列升级，可能会吸引一些用户进行预购。我的同事 Victoria Song 已经上手体验了两款智能手表，并详细介绍了最大的变化，从 S11 芯片（内置于 Series 12 和 Ultra 4）带来的音频智能功能，到改进后的传感器和追踪能力可能产生的影响。
If you don’t want to wait for reviews to hit before you make the purchase, the Series 12 starts at $399 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Apple itself for the 42mm size ($50 more for the 46mm). High rollers can configure one with a ceramic case (the first time ceramic has been on the menu since the Series 5) starting at $899. Like usual, the Apple Watch Ultra 4 starts at $799 from Amazon and Best Buy and comes in one size, which features GPS and 5G support. Both models launch on September 18th, the same day as the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. 如果你不想等评测出炉再购买，Series 12 的 42mm 版本起售价为 399 美元（46mm 版本需多加 50 美元），可在亚马逊、百思买（Best Buy）及苹果官网购买。预算充足的用户可以选择陶瓷表壳版本（这是自 Series 5 以来首次回归陶瓷材质），起售价为 899 美元。与往常一样，Apple Watch Ultra 4 的起售价为 799 美元，可在亚马逊和百思买购买，仅提供一种尺寸，支持 GPS 和 5G 网络。两款机型均于 9 月 18 日发售，与 iPhone 18 Pro 和 Pro Max 同步上市。
