Apple Watch Series 10: 3 Improvements That Will Change Everything

Apple Watch fans can rejoice. The latest leak from China reveals some very interesting information about the company’s next watch. In accordance with Digitimes Asiasmartwatches of the future, developed in Cupertino I will use a new motherboard which will allow you to improve in 3 key areas: thickness, durability and water resistance.

How? Including what is called in English resin coated copperand that in Spanish we can translate this as Polymer Coated Copper Base Plate. This component is supplied by Nan Ya PCBwhich recently became a supplier to Apple again.

Therefore, if Apple Watch series 10 uses one of these plates, the inside of the watch can undergo very important changes, allowing for many structural changes, as well as others resulting from the integration itself. Here are some of the most important ones that will appear in the next generation of watches.

Apple Watch Series 10 could be thinner

This new one resin coated plate It has one main feature: It is thinner than traditional ones. This allows for the same number of components to be placed in a smaller thickness, so Apple could use this to reduce the thickness of your Series 10 watch.

Now the difference between both components should be small, which would mean a minimal reduction between Watch Series 9 and the next generation. Regardless, finding space is vital in such small devices, so this new board may represent a corresponding change. Especially if you look at the size of the last six generations:

• Series 9: thickness 10.7 mm.
• Series 8: thickness 10.7 mm.
• Series 7: thickness 10.7 mm.
• Series 6: thickness 10.7 mm.
• Series 5: thickness 10.74 mm.
• Series 4: thickness 10.7 mm.

More shock resistant

In turn, this motherboard will also be responsible for providing Apple Watch Series 10 is more resistant to shocks and drops. This is a component that is completely coated with resin. This method is used to make parts that are designed to withstand abuse.

This coating is capable isolate chips, solders and embedded components, so they are less likely to suffer from movement or breakage. In addition, a sealed layer is formed between the plate and other parts, such as the battery, so puncturing the latter may not affect it at all.

Apple Watch Series 10 handles water better

Another benefit of resin is water. The Apple Watch has been waterproof and stands up well to humidity for many years, but the integration of this new plate would improve this aspect even more. As with impacts, the part is covered makes it more resistant to liquids of all types.

Of course, this new component is not expected to improve the Apple Watch’s IP certification. This is ensured by an external seal that is independent of the resin-coated base plate. Now, if the water manages to enter, there will be an additional security system that will prevent moisture from entering and the processor, memory and main chips rust.

Therefore, even if Apple does not announce an improvement in this aspect, if the next watch is equipped with the above-mentioned motherboard, users can rest assured that your smartwatch will be a little more waterproof than previous models.

Apple has several additional options

Finally, we want to talk about the capabilities that Apple will gain if it integrates the new board. If this allows for a noticeable difference compared to the previous thickness, the Cupertino company will have several options:

• Take advantage of this space to reduce thickness Apple Watch review.
• Use this extra space to enable new sensors and improve your health section.
• Fill the gap left by the plate, big battery to improve the battery life of the watch.

As you can see, the integration of this new resin coated motherboard is could lead to the biggest changes to the Apple Watch in years and the tenth generation, full of flattery. What will happen is still unknown.
