The next Watch Ultra could look very familiar
The launch of an Apple Watch Ultra 3 this year has been in the balance, according to the rumor mill – and fresh speculation suggests that, while it’s now on track for a September reveal, it could be a very minor upgrade.
The largely reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has apparently told MacRumors that the Watch Ultra 3 will have «almost no» hardware upgrades from the current Apple Watch Ultra 2.
Unfortunately, the analyst didn’t share any more details, but that speculation follows a recent theme that’s seen the prospect of a microLED screen boost look increasingly unlikely for Apple’s most powerful smartwatch.
Of course, we don’t know what software upgrades Apple could be planning for watchOS 11. Or if Apple could yet sneak in a hardware tweak, like a new smaller alternative to the current model’s rather beefy 49mm case.
It’s also possible that the Watch Ultra 3 could come with an S10 chip (most likely, a rebranded version of the S9), as would qualify as a very minor hardware change.
