Apple Watch will reportedly get a big redesign, but not this year
Apple's upcoming Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 will only have minor upgrades, with bigger changes coming next year, report claims.
This year, Apple Watch users may see a white or gray ceramic case introduced, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman's report on the upcoming Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4. These devices are expected to receive only minor upgrades, as previously anticipated. Gurman revealed that Apple has tested both white and gray versions of the ceramic case for the Series 12, and both new case colors, along with additional band options, will accompany the watch.
A notable update could include the continuous heart-rate sensor data collection, rather than the current random interval or exercise-only measurements. Additionally, the Apple Watch's fitness and health software might feature an update to include more wellness-related metrics. However, Apple aims to deliver more substantial upgrades to both the Apple Watch and Apple Watch Ultra next year.
The report's timing is particularly interesting, as the new Watch Series 12 and Watch Ultra are expected to launch just over a week away on September 9. With the launch approaching, surprises are unlikely this late in the game, so don't anticipate significant changes for the Apple Watch devices this year.
