Apple Watch Series X Leaks: Amid the reports of a possible slimmer iPhone 17 next year, a fresh blog from TF International Securities Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has hinted at details about the upcoming Apple Watch Series 10. As per the analyst, the smartwatch could get a slimmer design and a bigger screen size. This update comes after Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reported that a possible slimmer iPhone, MacBook and Apple Watch are in the works.
According to Kuo, Apple may bring the Watch Series 10 with a larger screen size. The 45mm dial could expand to 49mm, and the 41mm version may expand to 45mm. The thinner form factor could be a part of the company's revamped strategies. For the unaware, the company unveiled the iPad Pro as the thinnest Apple product in May 2024.
Kuo noted the next-gen Apple Watch Ultra may remain largely the same this year apart from new colours. The company may use 3D printing technology to manufacture parts of the Apple Watch. In another set of reports, Mark Gurman hinted the company could rebrand the upcoming product as "Apple Watch X" for the smartwatch's 10th anniversary.
