Tech giant Apple hasn't revealed any information about the release date, specs or price of its upcoming smartwatch possibly dubbed "Apple Watch 2" or "Apple Watch S." New reports suggest people are eagerly waiting for the release of the much anticipated next-gen smartwatch.
In fact, according to a report from Wearable, the rumored arrival of "Apple Watch 2" has impacted the sales of current Apple Watch to a great extent. The sales of the smartwatch has reportedly declined to up to 50 percent this year as compared to last year.
It seems people are ready to wait for the release of the next gen smartwatch as the device is expected to feature a host of impeccable specs and features. It is rumored that the Apple Watch 2 will get rolled out with new microLED screen tech which will consume comparatively lower power than OLED as well ensure a longer battery life and thinner design. In terms of looks, the upcoming smartwatch is expected to mirror the design of the original iteration.
Past rumors suggested that that Apple Watch 2 will feature true cellular connectivity and will enable users to make calls, send texts and connect to the internet without using iPhone. The wearable tech is expected to run the recently released Watch OS 3. The smartwatch is also rumored to be significantly waterproof and come with a couple of new health-tracking features. It is expected to come with GPS and swimming tracking functionality.
As far as the processor is concerned, there will be an ARM Cortex A32 chipset on board Apple Watch 2, which is almost 25 percent faster than the current ARM-based processor. There are also possibilities of a new gesture control and FaceTime camera for selfie and video calls.
Talking about the release date, there are high chances that the next gen smartwatch could be launched alongside iPhone 7 in September. Readers are advised to take the information with a grain of salt as the Cupertino has not confirmed anything yet. Stay tuned to SWR for new updates on Apple Watch 2 release date, specs and price.
