Firstly, the standard Apple Watch series will likely follow in the footsteps of the iPhone and debut as the “Apple Watch X” in its 10th iteration. For reference, the tenth-generation iPhone was also marketed as the iPhone X – a strategy that proved to be very successful.
In addition to the new moniker, the Apple Watch X will reportedly come in two sizes, each bigger than the respective 41mm and 45mm versions of last year. The smaller model should have a 1.89” display, while the bigger – a 2.04” one. It should be noted that because of the curved design the usable screen real estate will actually be less.
Secondly, the Apple Watch SE 3 will likely adopt the slimmer bezels of the current Apple Watch 8. This will also allow for a slightly bigger display as well.
Lastly, and most interestingly, the Apple Watch Ultra will get a bigger 2.13” microLED panel in 2024. The new display technology should make the sports-oriented wearable even more durable, and will likely expand its already impressive battery life.
The report mentions that, while 2024 will be a big year for the Apple Watch, the lineup will receive incremental updates sometime this year, with the Apple Watch 9 expected to feature the same display as its predecessor.
