Future Apple Watches will have more space inside thanks to the use of new materials

The next generation of Apple Watch will arrive at the end of the year if everything goes as planned and today very little news is known since the rumors focus on the new iPads which will arrive at the Apple keynote on May 7 and the new operating systems that will be presented at WWDC24. However, a new rumor indicates that Apple could reduce the size of future Apple Watch motherboards by using resin-coated copper. This decrease in plate thickness would allow Apple to place new sensors or increase the battery, thus improving its specifications as a product.

Resinated copper: the new technology of the next Apple Watch

There use of copper coated with epoxy resin This is not news because we have already heard that Apple could consider using it in the next iPhone 17, thus skipping a generation. The use of this material has several advantages, as we have already mentioned, especially highlighting the increased space inside the Apple Watch to move components, modify them or even add new components.

This would be achieved through the use of this copper and this information was notified, via DigiTimes, by the Apple supply chain, so it is interesting to see how Cupertino is already working with these materials. Maybe not for the use of this material in the next Apple Watch, but in future generations.

Don’t forget that we have also heard about new sensors that will arrive on the Apple Watch such as non-invasive blood sugar monitoring or wrist-based blood pressure measurement. Thanks to the reduction in the thickness of certain components and therefore the increase in space inside the case, Apple could easily introduce these new sensors in future generations of its watch.
