After the iPhone X, the Apple Watch

The Californian firm is currently thinking about amajor renewal of the Apple Watchfor a new edition. This is indeed what Mark Gurman, the Apple informant with well-placed sources, indicates in his latest newsletter. According to him, important new features would be on the program for an Apple Watch “X” edition. However, we will have to be patient to see the general public benefit from it. The Cupertino company could in fact refine this new high-end watch until the year 2025, to release it at a historic moment, as we detail below in this article.

What's new for the Apple Watch X?

Mark Gurman predicts several big changes for the Apple Watchthe design. Apple would seek toreduce the thickness of the case as much as possibleand at the same time, to make everything less heavy. The second concerns thebracelet fixing system. It could be that we can finally benefit from a mechanism that is a little more practical than what we currently see on Apple watches, with the integration of amagnetic clip. Changing bracelets would then be even easier and faster than with the Apple Watch Series 8.

Finally, we imagine many other changes to mark the occasion, such as the probable implementation ofnew sensorsand new solutions for sports and health monitoring, but also,improving autonomy. Moreover, as the source points out, changing the fixing system for the bracelets would allow more space for the battery, which would then gain in size. And bigger battery means potentially better battery life.

Why 2025?

If the Bloomberg informant mentions the year 2024 for the release of this Apple Watch And this, for a very simple reason:the year 2025 marks 10 years of the existence of the Apple Watch range. Indeed, it was in 2015 that the American company released its first model, the Apple Watch (simply, later renamed Series 0). Currently, we are at the Apple Watch Series 8. Apple could introduce a Series 9 (with little new) next September and present the Apple Watch X in September 2024 for release in 2025.
