If the recent reports are correct, Apple Watch Series 10 will be the biggest update to the wearable in years. Not only in function, but also in design. However, it is possible that this change look comes with bad news: currently available belts will not be compatible with the next generation of watches.
According to @KosutamiSanwho have proven in the past to have reliable information about upcoming developments in Apple’s line of accessories, Cupertino residents are working on redesign of the mechanism that allows you to attach straps to the device. For this reason, it will lose compatibility with previous generations.
“The next generation of Apple Watch connectors have been completely redesigned. If you have old straps, it’s better to sell them. This is 100% correct.”
To some extent, this report should not surprise us. In August, Mark Gurman, journalist Bloomberg and one of the most reliable sources about Apple’s upcoming products has reported that the watch, also known as the Apple Watch X, will introduce a new design. This will also affect the belt fastening system.
One of the options considered is magnetic mechanism. Not only will this make it easier to attach or remove the belt, but it will also take up much less space. The above will help the Apple Watch Series 10 have a more stylized design and of course there would be more space for internal components. Those led by Tim Cook could, for example, integrate a larger battery.
“People involved in the development of the new Apple Watch say the system takes up less space that could be filled with a larger battery or other components.”
Mark Gurman.
The problem, of course, is that all these new features will obliterate existing bands. If this becomes a reality, there will be widespread discontent.
One of the many benefits of the Apple Watch is its compatibility with older bands. Many people have changed generations of their watches but kept the straps to expand their collection. With the updated Apple Watch Series 10, we’ll have to start this collection from scratch…
Beyond the New lookApple Watch Watch 10 will also have two highly anticipated features. The first is blood pressure meter, which Apple has been working on for many years. Of course, it was not easy to develop because it involves integrating a fairly complex mechanism into a very small device. It appears that Apple has managed to overcome these obstacles. On the other hand, we have sleep apnea detectora disorder in which breathing stops.
If Apple follows the same roadmap as in previous years, the Apple Watch Series 10 will be unveiled during September 2024. This will be an important moment in the history of smartwatches because, as mentioned, the new features introduced in recent years have not convinced many to upgrade their device. The situation may change next year with the arrival of the finally updated model…
