Apple has announced its fifth-generation Apple Watch, which features an always-on Retina display that is able to refresh and power manage without having to turn off. The new feature will not compromise Apple’s all-day battery, however, the interface has also been modified to show things like your heart rate on the fly.

The Apple Watch also introduces a new compass, showcasing your direction at a glance. Its new safety feature has international emergency calls that can be used when by holding down a button. These calls can even be made without needing an iPhone. Apple also announced two new titanium model Apple Watches in Natural and Space Grey.

GPS models start at $399 USD while cellular models go for $499 USD. They will be available in an assortment of colors in over 150 countries on September 20, with preorders going live today on Apple’s website.
