Apple Watch Series 12 Specs, Price & Colors (2026) | Craft by Merlin
The Apple Watch Series 12 launched alongside the iPhone 18 Pro, Pro Max, and iPhone Duo at Apple’s September 9, 2026 event. It keeps the same case shapes and display sizes as recent generations, with the real upgrades going into a new chip, a rebuilt health sensor system, and a longer feature list in watchOS 27. Apple Watch Series 12 Specs at a Glance Spec Detail Chip Apple S11 System in Package Case sizes 42mm and 46mm in aluminum and titanium, 43mm and 47mm in the new ceramic option Display OLED Always-On Retina, up to 2,000 nits, 1.77 inch (42mm) or 1.96 inch (46mm) Storage 64GB Connectivity 5G RedCap on cellular models Durability Ceramic Shield 2 on aluminum models, rated 60 percent tougher than Series 11’s Ion-X glass; 50m water resistance; IP6X dust resistance Health Health Sensing System: always-on optical heart rate every 5 seconds, HRV measured up to 24x more often than before, plus a new Readiness score Audio Intelligence Sound Recognition, Live Rewind, Siri Recap, and Shazam (Live Rewind and Siri Recap arrive in beta later in 2026) Battery Up to 24 hours normal use, 38 hours in Low Power Mode, 10 hours of outdoor workout tracking with GPS Materials and colors Aluminum in Dark Bronze, Black, Light Gold, and Space Gray; Titanium in Radiant Gold and Natural; Ceramic in Pearl White and Night Blue Software watchOS 27, with Siri AI and a redesigned Find My app Price From $399 Release Pre-orders opened September 9, in stores September 18, 2026 What’s Actually New This Year Case design and display sizes carry over from recent generations, so the visible changes are modest. The bigger shifts are the new Health Sensing System, which takes heart rate readings every five seconds throughout the day rather than periodically, the new Readiness score that estimates whether to rest, pace yourself, or train normally based on recent vitals and sleep, and the return of a ceramic case option for the first time since Series 5. Pairs Naturally With a Custom iPhone 18 Craft by Merlin does not currently customize the Apple Watch Series 12, but many customers reserving a finish from the iPhone 18 collection pair it with the new Watch as a matching set straight out of the box. If you are building out your Apple lineup for this launch, the iPhone is the piece where Craft by Merlin’s customization already applies. 24K Full Gold 24K Rose Gold Black Alligator Leather Brown Alligator Leather Explore the full Craft by Merlin iPhone 18 collection to see all eight finishes.
AirPods 5 vs AirPods Pro 3: Which Should You Buy?
Apple just made its own lineup harder to shop. For the first time, the entry-level AirPods 5 ships with real Active Noise Cancellation, a feature that used to be the main reason to pay up for AirPods Pro. So if both now cancel noise, both run on Apple’s H2 chip, and both support Siri, what is actually left to justify the $120 gap between them? Quite a lot, as it turns out, just not where most people expect. AirPods 5 vs AirPods Pro 3 at a Glance Spec AirPods 5 AirPods Pro 3 Price $129 (USB-C case) or $149 (Wireless Charging Case) $249 Fit Open-ear, no silicone tips In-ear, silicone tips in 5 sizes including XXS Chip Apple H2 Apple H2 Active Noise Cancellation Up to 50% stronger than AirPods 4 Up to 3x stronger than AirPods 5, per Apple’s own figures Battery (earbuds) Up to 4 hours with ANC on ($129), up to 5 hours on the $149 case Up to 8 hours with ANC on Battery (with case) Up to 20 hours Up to 24 hours Extra features Live Translation, hands-free Siri, next-gen Adaptive EQ Adaptive Audio, personalized Spatial Audio, hearing health features including heart rate sensing Water resistance IP57 IP57 The Real Difference Is Fit, Not Features Most of the headline features are now shared between the two, which makes the fit the actual decision point. AirPods Pro 3 seal your ear canal with a silicone tip, the same way earplugs do, which physically blocks outside noise before any electronics get involved. AirPods 5 sit loosely in the ear with no seal at all, which is more comfortable for a lot of people, especially anyone who finds in-ear tips uncomfortable over long wear, but it puts the entire noise-cancelling job on software and microphones rather than a physical barrier. How Big Is the Noise Cancellation Gap, Really? Apple’s own comparison page puts a number on it: AirPods Pro 3 cancel up to three times more noise than AirPods 5. That gap comes almost entirely from the physical seal, not from better microphones or smarter processing, since both models share the same H2 chip. If you fly often, work in loud environments, or simply want the strongest possible noise cancellation, that three-times figure is the one number in this comparison worth taking seriously. Who Should Buy AirPods 5 You mostly listen at home, walking, commuting, or in a normal office, not on flights or in consistently loud environments You find silicone ear tips uncomfortable or simply prefer an open-ear feel You want real ANC without paying Pro pricing You do not need the hearing health or heart rate features Who Should Buy AirPods Pro 3 You travel frequently or want the strongest noise cancellation Apple makes You prefer a secure, sealed in-ear fit, including for workouts You want Apple’s hearing health features and heart rate sensing You want the longest single-charge battery life available in the lineup Craft by Merlin Customizes Both, So You Don’t Have to Choose Twice Whichever way this decision goes, you do not have to settle for Apple’s stock white on either one. Craft by Merlin hand-customizes both the AirPods 5 and the AirPods Pro 3, across genuinely different styles depending on what you are after. AirPods 5, Hand-Painted Craft’s Custom Painted AirPods 5 collection is hand-finished in four colors, each starting from a genuine Apple AirPods 5 with every original feature, ANC included, fully intact. Glacier AirPods 5 Burgundy AirPods 5 Black AirPods 5 Silver AirPods 5 AirPods Pro 3, Several Ways The AirPods Pro 3 line goes considerably further, with both painted and material-led options depending on how far you want to take it.
