A new Bloomberg report claims that Apple is working on a ‘rugged’ case as an option for the Apple Watch.
While the Apple Watch Series 6 already has 50-meters of water resistance and a sapphire crystal display option to repel scratches, but hard-core users might be getting even more protection for extreme sports. A new report from Mark Gurman at Bloomberg says that Apple is working on a new Apple Watch with “a rugged casing aimed at athletes, hikers and others who use the device in more extreme environments” that could launch as early as this year. Gurman says Apple is considering “a rubberized exterior” that would be more resistant to scratches than the current aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium options.
