Apple Watch Series 9 gets the Barbiecore treatment
Apple Watch Series 9 is expected to launch in September, and as we get closer to the prospective launch date, more and more information is starting to slip through the cracks. This latest leak from a previously accurate leaker reportedly reveals the new watch will come in 41mm and 45mm case sizes, just like the Apple Watch Series 8.
Sticking to conventions like some of the best Apple Watch models before it, the Apple Watch Series 9 sounds like it’s going to use the same basic chassis as the Series 8, with no major external hardware changes. The leaker ShrimpApplePro, whose predictions have been correct in the past, posted on their Twitter account (or X account, as we all have to say now) implying they have seen the Series 9.
They write: “Well, I wish I can see anything that is new outside, but it looks the same”. Spotted via MacRumors, it’s unlikely, then, that the Apple Watch Series 9 will get a programmable Action Button like the one introduced on the Apple Watch Ultra last year, as Apple holds fast with the same sizes and digital crown-orientated design.
