Big design changes to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Apple’s smartwatch
This weekend the popular journalist Mark Gurman of Bloomberg assured that Apple is planning to considerably improve the design of its next generations of iPhone, MacBook Pro and Apple Watch with a much thinner thickness. Well, in the case of Apple Watch It won’t be the only new thing…
Apple has already completely revolutionized the design of its 2024 iPad Pro, which has become the thinnest iPad in history thanks to the use of the OLED technology. Now it is the turn of the rest of the products in its catalog.
According to reports Ming-Chi Kuo from Mediumthe next generation of Apple Watch will have a much thinner chassis and a much larger screen compared to the Apple Watch Series 9 released in late 2023.
Apple Watch Series X: Apple’s 10th anniversary smartwatch
Everything seems to indicate that Apple will rename its Apple Watch Series 10 as Apple Watch either Apple Watch Series. Although nothing is confirmed, it could happen as with the iPhone X. Although it is not an identical situation.
In the case of the iPhone
For its part, This year, 2024, it will be 10 years since the official launch of the first Apple Watch. And to celebrate, Apple has planned a great redesign in every way. No, we will not see a circular Apple Watch. But it is a much thinner and much larger watch.
It is not the first time that the Apple Watch Series X has been rumored to be larger. A few months ago from iPadizate we reported that the Apple Watch Series X would have a screen with dimensions of 1.89 inches and 2.04 inches.
Ming-Chi Kuo predicts that Apple will present an Apple Watch Series 45mm and of 49mmwhich will replace the current 41mm and 45mm options.
In other words, the smaller Apple Watch Series X will have the same measurements as the larger Apple Watch Series 9. Shocking, right?
In addition, its thickness will also be thinner. It seems that Apple intends to give a fresh new look to the minimalist design of all the devices in its catalog. On the other hand, finally, Ming-Chi Kuo thinks that the third generation Apple Watch Ultra will not be bigger. We’ll see what ends up happening!
Where is the smartwatch market heading?
The wearables sector is just taking its first steps in the technology industry. It’s difficult to try to predict where the smartwatch niche is headed. In the case of phones, the trend has been to market devices with increasingly larger screens.
But will it really be worth having an increasingly larger smartwatch? We don’t know how fashion will be in a few years, but it could become unsightly. In any case, the increase in the dimensions of the Apple Watch Series X screen will be notable but not excessively ostentatious.
