The Apple Watch is incredibly popular, but a Pro variant could borrow these features from its rival.
It’s September, and as sure as death and taxes that means an Apple Event is right around the corner. In fact, at the time of publication, the Apple event, christened ‘Far Out’ is due to kick off in just a few hours time
Alongside the expected reveal of the iPhone 14, along with the Pro variants that have become expected over the last few years, we’re also expected to see the annual refresh of the Apple Watch.
What is different this time around, though, is that it seems Apple is preparing to reveal a new more rugged option for extreme fitness fans that like to run until the sun goes down, or climb mountains.
This Apple Watch Pro would mark a departure from the two size options the company offers for each model already, with reports suggesting a larger display which is tougher than the standard variant. It’s also expected to have a larger chassis, although how much larger is anyone’s guess until it’s finally revealed.
