He approaches Launch of new Apple Watch models. Next September, along with the iPhone 16, we should see the new Apple Watch Series models of the Apple Watch.
The most important thing should come to the Apple Watch tenth generation Apple Watchand we know that Apple likes to celebrate these anniversaries in a special way, as it did with the legendary iPhone X. How revolutionary will the Apple Watch Series X be?
Apple Watch Series X reportedly has bigger screen, faster processor
The main change of the Apple Watch Series X would be the increase in the size of its screens. The small and large models will have an enlargement in inches. Mark Gurman claims that the larger Apple Watch model will have a similar screen size to the current Apple Watch Ultra.

This screen increase would also be confirmed with the latest leak we received last week. It is about a mockup with the design of the Apple Watch Series. In fact, this design matches Mark Gurman’s prediction. And the most famous Apple rumor indicates that there will be no radical changes in the design. The Apple Watch It will still have curved edges, even though it will be thinner.
If we talk about the processor, with the current S9 chip, Apple has already made a significant leap in terms of speed and Neural Engine. With it The S10 chip would continue to improve the Apple Watch in AI power tasks. In addition, it is possible that it will be manufactured in three nanometers like its brother the Chip A18.
Apple Intelligence isn’t expected to come to the Apple Watch anytime soon. They’ll focus on the iPhone, iPad, and Mac first, and then bring it to the Apple Vision Pro. So that processor. will not be designed to support Apple Intelligencebecause it is not in the near future for Apple to bring its AI to the Apple Watch.
Advances in health with Apple Watch Series X and Ultra 3
Over the past few years, Apple has been working hard to bring us innovations of Health monitoring to new Apple Watch models. Basically, they are working on three features that Mark Gurman wonders whether or not they will reach this generation of Apple Watch Series X:
- Blood sugar (low probability)
- Blood pressure (average probability)
- Sleep apnea (high probability)
Everything indicates that the measure of Blood sugar needs more years of evolution to be able to calculate it without clicking on the user. Therefore, it is completely out of the question that it will reach this generation of the Apple Watch Series X.
Blood pressure
Regarding blood pressure, you know that Apple has worked hard, but it is they would have encountered some problems and it’s not as reliable as they hoped. This could mean one of two things: Apple is delaying the launch for another year, or it’s not tied to an exact number like blood oxygen or heart rate measurements.
Apple would point out that It will not replace blood pressure monitors for the air we usually have at home. The Apple Watch functionality wouldn’t give a real reading, but it would know if we have a surge higher than our average. Something similar to what happens with the current temperature sensor, which doesn’t give a specific measurement, but it’s cable to find trends and know if we are getting sick.
Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea detection appears to be coming to the Apple Watch Series X and Ultra 3. Since the Apple Watch has a blood oxygen sensor, you will only need to put the algorithm
The problem would be the blockage that Apple has in the United States with the blood oxygen sensor. In fact, all Apple Watches currently sold there have this function disabled for a legal issue with another company that claims Apple is infringing a patent. This might delay the arrival of the apnea detection feature until Apple fixes it.
The arrival of a cheaper and aluminum-free Apple Watch SE 3
Finally, Mark Gurman commented that Apple could present a renewal of the current Apple Watch SE, introduced two years ago. The update cycle of this watch has been biannual (2020, 2022 and a new version should arrive in 2024).
The Apple Watch SE is the lower-cost version of the Apple Watch, so it won’t have these extra health features, although maybe the Apple S10 chip. What is discussed in the report is that Apple allegedly experimented 3D plastic molds to replace aluminum housing of the Apple Watch SE. In this way, they could speed up production, reduce the environmental impact and make the watch cheaper, perhaps by a starting price of $199. The last time Apple used plastic in a flagship device was the iPhone 5c. Although it may look more like the AirPods’ coating.
The Apple Watch SE, the Apple Watch Series will be presented during the September keynote with the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro It is not known whether they will also be presented with the new AirPods 4 and the final price of all these devices.
