Apple launch event is amongst the most awaited events for tech lovers throughout the year. The event which is set to go on floors on 9th September 2024 will have some of the most amazing product revelations this time and we can’t keep calm. At the event, the top tech company will unveil its other products in addition to revealing its most recent iPhone models. Since the Apple Watch is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year, both the company and its fans find it to be particularly memorable. We are therefore keenly awaiting not just the release of the newest iPhone models, the 16 and 16 Pro, but also the major revelation of the Apple Watch 10 series at the main event.
If Apple Watch Series 10 rumours are considered, then the new watch is going to be bigger, thinner, and definitely better than the former model. Are you also excited to know what can be expected from the latest Apple watch series that is launching soon? Read through this blog to get all the latest updates on the new Apple watch and its features.
Popular Apple Watch Series 10 Rumours
A lot of Apple Watch leaks have gone viral on the internet regarding the new Apple Watch design and features ahead of the official Apple Event. The Series 10 has already generated a lot of buzz and excitement within the public. These are the features we can expect from the new Apple watch series.
Larger Screen
As per Apple Watch Series 10 rumours, the screen size of the upcoming models will be bigger and better. The screen size for the smaller Apple Watch X could be upgraded from 41mm to somewhere between 42-45mm and the bigger Apple Watch X could go from 45mm to anywhere between 46-49mm. This means the smaller watch may officially get the size of the last year’s bigger model and the bigger watch this time will get the size of Apple Watch Ultra.
MicroLED Display
The Apple Watch may go from an OLED to a microLED display in the upcoming launch. This will allow the users more energy efficiency, better brightness, and contrast, and more accurate colours on display.
Magnetic Bands
If the Apple Watch Series 10 rumours are to be believed, Apple could introduce a new mechanism for attaching bands magnetically replacing the slide-and-lock system in earlier models.
Bigger Battery
The Apple Watch X may come with bigger batteries this time especially when it is anticipated the screen size is going bigger this time. Also, if the introduction of magnetic bands rumor is true then it will probably free up space for larger batteries in the watch. The increased battery will provide more than 18 hours of usage a day.
Apple Watch Health Tracking
The most foreseen Apple Watch feature so far is the new health sensors which will help in hypertension detection and sleep apnea detection. These Apple Watch Series 10 features have been under development for quite some time now and are probably going to be added this year itself but might also be delayed due to some issues.
Flat-Screen Design
Another one from the Apple Watch Series 10 rumours is that the watch will have a flat screen. This rumour came into the picture when a glimpse of the designs and size of the screen for Apple watches was leaked by a user on X. The same user also reported that the watch may have a curved display which has unfortunately caused quite some confusion for the users.
A New Powerful Chip
The Apple Watch 2024 might get a new chip altogether for all the series 10 models. If a new chip is added to the Apple smartwatch then it will probably incorporate AI applications and allow a 2X faster Neural Engine.
Series 10 Apple Watch Health Tracking Features To Expect
The existing smart health trackers and sensors may be retained for the next series by Apple. These include accurate heart rate monitoring, fall detection, blood oxygen readings, medication tracking, AFIB history tracking, irregular rhythm notifications, the ECG application, and more.
As per Apple Watch Series 10 rumours, Apple was supposed to add sleep apnea detection and hypertension detection features in its next smartwatch launch. However, it is possible that blood oxygen monitoring won’t be available on the Apple Watch X in the US market due to the ongoing patent dispute with Masimo. The availability of this feature in more recent devices, such as the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2, has also been impacted by this problem.
There is a possibility that Apple can introduce a Health Assistant with the help of AI integration that can help in better features and optimization. Just like in the Apple Watch Series 9 where they introduced Siri to complete certain user requests and answer questions from the watch itself. The health-related questions, sleep schedule-related queries and setting the alarms and timers can be made better in the upcoming models.
Apple is also working on adding these features if we believe Apple Watch Series 10 rumours.
- Fall Detection
- Crash Detection
- High-g accelerometer
- Second-generation ultrawideband chip
- High and low heart rate notifications
- Irregular rhythm notification
- Cardio fitness notifications
- Temperature sensing
- Emergency SOS
- International emergency calling
Apple Watch Series 10 Rumours and Launch Date
The approaching Apple Event on the 9th of September 2024 is the expected launch date for the new Apple Watch Series 10. This is because even in the past, the new series launch for the Apple watches was done at the same time when the iPhones were launched. This year is special for the Apple Watch series since it’s the tenth announcement anniversary and thus it is most likely that the Apple Watch 10 or Apple Watch X will be launched on the same day according to the Apple Watch Series 10 rumours. People will also be able to pre-order their watches once the watches are unveiled at the event officially. The official availability of the watches might take one or two weeks post that.
Will there be a Blood Glucose Sensor in Series 10?
As of now, there will not be any addition of the blood glucose sensor as per the Apple Watch Series 10 rumours. As per the publication “This technique involves shining lasers through the skin into the interstitial fluid between the blood vessels and the cells they serve. The intensity of the light’s reflection back, researchers have found, can be used to calculate the glucose concentration in the interstitial fluid and, by extension, in the bloodstream — and the only thing that has had to penetrate the body is light”.
But Apple still has trouble getting all the data it needs because a non-invasive device needs to be able to look through a wide range of skin tones and analyse different types of blood. If we go by the Apple Watch Series 10 rumours, the company intends to sort through the unprocessed data using AI to forecast when an individual may become diabetic. Hence, it is not yet possible for the company to add Blood Glucose Sensor to its latest watches but it may come in the future models.
Conclusion
For those who love technology, the Apple event is one of the most anticipated. In addition to a few other product and upgrade announcements, the September 9, 2024 event will mark the release of new MacBooks, iPhones, and smartwatches. Owners of smartwatches who are hoping for an upgrade have high hopes after hearing about the Apple Watch Series 10 rumours surrounding it. The new Apple watch from the upcoming series is known to have gotten a redesign and new chipset along with a better and bigger display. All that we have heard so far points towards the fact that the new watch is going to take a good amount of limelight at the launch event and we are seated for it.
