Play 2021 Apple Watch Rainbow Edition Woven Single Loop Strap Look in advance, forward and backward
Sina Digital News on the morning of June 15, news from Bloomberg said that Apple’s Apple Watch this year will usher in a major facelift. “Apple Watch Series 7” will use a narrower display frame and a faster processor. And supports the updated ultra-wideband function.
This will represent the first major design change of Apple Watch since the release of Series 4 in 2018, both internally and externally.
In terms of appearance, Bloomberg said that this year’s Apple Watch update will include a thinner screen frame. In addition to appearance improvements, Apple will also use a new screen lamination technology to reduce the gap between the display and the cover glass. But the overall watch may be slightly thicker.
The whistleblower thinks Apple Watch will become like this
In May of this year, well-known whistleblower Jon Prosser also said that the new watch will have a flatter side, just like the iPhone 12.
The previously rumored “outdoor” Apple Watch will be available next year, and it is expected that the entry-level Apple Watch SE will be updated next year.
In terms of built-in, Bloomberg said that Apple is continuing to study methods to measure blood sugar levels in a non-invasive way (that is, without taking blood samples). However, the project is still a few years away from being commercially available in Apple Watch. In addition, Apple also hopes to add a body temperature sensor to the watch, but this feature may have been postponed to 2022.
Faster chips are not unexpected, but I don’t know what new features ultra-wideband can bring to Apple Watch. The Apple Watch Series 6 launched last fall is the first watch equipped with ultra-wideband chips, but Apple seems to be functionally for it The improvement brought is very limited.
