Something which was not common in many smartwatches at the time.

What About Future Of Apple Watches?

We are in 2024 and with next release slated for the September of this month I think its far to assume that we will be introduced to Series 10 and probably either Ultra 3 or SE 3 this year.

In both cases what we can expect is new features, yet one which is highly anticipated is blood pressure tracking. So far not many (almost 80%) of the wearable industry has not been able to introduce it in their flagship models. There is hopes with Versa 5 and Oura Ring 4 that perhaps they will be the first one to introduce the change, we don’t have any confirmed news as of now.

Whereas for the Apple – it is not a news to us that Apple always comes up with something catchy for their devices. They just know how to present them as specialty in question. In which case while we wait for the September to arrive our insight for the future of Apple Watches is that they will focus on introducing health features which are so far not common in other wearables. However, if there is one trait which all Apple devices share is that they love to perfect their built before release. Unfortunately, perfection doesn’t always comes with patinate.
