Apple and Nike have once again collaborated to bring the Apple Watch Nike+ sport smartwatch to fruition as a way to help offer runners a dedicated device just for them. Like the Apple Watch Series 2, the Apple Watch Nike+ features built-in GPS to accurately track the wearers route during runs. This enables runners to leave their smartphone at home when heading out for a jog.
The brighter display on the Apple Watch Nike+ allows it to be better seen in bright sunlight, while the entire device is water-resistant to 50-meters. The band on the smartwatch features perforations to help accelerate cooling.
The Apple Watch Nike+ sport smartwatch also reminds wearers to run when they haven't in a while or when the weather is great for it by displaying messages such as, "Are we running today?"
