Apple is organising its annual launch event at the Steve Jobs Theater on 9 September at the company’s headquarters. The event will be held to reveal the latest gadgets like iPhones, Macbooks, and more. Amidst the same, the release of the latest Apple Watch is also anticipated by the users. There has been a lot of news regarding the Apple Watch 10 design changes and we are sure you must be excited to know it all too. The former models of the smartwatch from Apple were already making the heads turn and now the rumours of the Apple Watch X series getting a revamped design have sparked, we couldn’t help but get all the inside scoop for our readers.
Apple Watch 10 Design Changes
There have been several leaks that are doing the rounds with respect to the design changes in the new Apple Watch. Some of the key changes that people can witness during the launch of the new series are listed below.
Bigger Screen
The most possible among all the expected Apple Watch 10 design changes is the increase in the screen display size. The new Apple Watch will get a screen larger than before as per the report presented by an Apple analyst. The smaller Apple Watch X may have an improved screen size between 42 and 45 mm, while the larger Apple Watch X may see a screen size increase from 45 to 46-49 mm. The entry-level option for the Apple Watch model was earlier 41mm which will most likely be replaced by the 45mm model and similarly, the largest model was 45mm which will now be 49mm. The Apple Watch Series 10 size bezels will also go smaller around the screen in the new models
Thinner Casing
The latest Apple Watch may come with a flatter screen as compared to the previous model. These Apple Watch 10 design changes can be true if the screen size is actually going bigger in the Apple Watch X Series. That’s because the larger display and the current thickness together might make the watch a little too bulkier which is probably not a comfortable and preferable option for all. Keeping this in mind, the watch may witness a leaner design with a thinner casing. However, nothing has been confirmed by the company yet and there haven’t been any measurements leaked regarding the thickness of the watch yet.
Magnetic Bands
The new watch will have the most amazing design upgrade if Apple in fact introduced the magnetic bands this time. Typically the bands of the watch click into a locking mechanism when they move into the chassis’s edges. But with magnetic bands, this system is eliminated. This may also make more space for adding more sensors or a larger battery into the watch.
Titanium Material
The Series 10 materials could be different than what were used till now. The stainless steel might get replaced with a titanium material this time. Apple also aims to use less material in order to be more environmentally conscious. If indeed the company is planning to use the titanium material then the colour variants may also increase this time due to the same.
Speaker Design
The Apple Watch 10 design changes also include a speaker design in the watch this time. It will make the new series 10 watches look similar to the Apple Watch Ultra. This means the watch will come with not come straight lines but with holes this time.
Colors and Tints
If the Apple Watch 10 design changes indeed include a titanium finish this time, it means users can get more colour options like gold, black, starlight, or the natural colour of titanium. The gold variant is believed to be similar to the iPhone 16 Pro with a lighter tint this time. There could also be a ceramic edition for the watches.
Other Features of Apple Watch 10 Design Changes
Energy-Efficient MicroLED display
There is so much more to the upcoming Apple Watch models than just the Apple Watch 10 design changes. The watches are most probably going to get a MicroLED display which will be more energy-efficient as compared to the current OLED. This is not yet confirmed as the company may even push this update to the next year but it is most likely to debut this year to make it special and better. The MicroLED display will also allow better brightness, consistent viewing from every angle, better colour display and better responsiveness.
More Health Sensors
The Apple Watch 10 design changes can also be due to the addition of new health sensors in the watch that the company has been working on for years. The new sensors mainly include sleep apnea detection and hypertension detection features which can help the users upto a greater extent. The company has also been working on adding a blood glucose level monitoring feature for more than a decade now but this feature is not yet expected to be added to any Apple Watch this year.
A New Chip
If rumours are to be believed, the new Apple Watch 10 design changes may include the addition of a whole new chip inside the watch. The more powerful chipset will enhance the performance of the watch and also allow for AI integration in the watch in the future. The Neural Engine will be 2X faster and allow the watch to be more efficient.
Bigger Battery
This time around, the Apple Watch X might include larger batteries, especially since it’s expected that the screen would be larger. Furthermore, if the rumour of magnetic band introduction is accurate, it will likely open up room in the watch for larger batteries. With the larger battery, you can use it for almost 18 hours every day.
What to Expect from the Latest Apple Launch Event?
The annual Apple launch event is going to unravel new developments and the latest gadgets by the company. The world will be able to see the first look of Apple Watch 10 design changes, the most awaited iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max launch, the latest models of MacBook, and the rollout of the Apple Intelligence AI platforms for macOS, iOS and iPadOS.

Conclusion
