According to Macworld Apple’s next smartwatch is rumored to be the Series 10, or possibly the Series X, following their naming convention for major design overhauls (like iPhone X and OS X). Here’s a breakdown of the leaked features and potential release date:
The Elec reports Apple might adopt a low-temperature polycrystalline oxide (LTPO) OLED display for the Watch X. This technology promises improved battery life due to its efficiency.
The Apple Watch X will be unveiled alongside the iPhone 16 this fall (September/October 2024).
The Elec speculates that LTPO OLED displays might be reserved for the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models, while the standard iPhones 16 and 16 Plus stick with low-temperature polycrystalline silicon (LTPS) displays. However, all iPhone 17 models in 2025 could receive the LTPO upgrade.
Rumors suggest the Apple Watch X might boast additional health features, a slimmer design, and a new magnetic band attachment system.
It’s important to note that these are just rumors and leaks. We’ll have to wait for Apple’s official announcement this fall to confirm the exact features and specifications of the Apple Watch Series X.
