According to a report, the Apple Watch Pro, which is allegedly a component of the Apple Watch Series 8, will have a flat display in a 47mm shell. The largest size of an Apple Watch will be this. The Apple Watch Series 7 is currently available in 41mm and 45mm sizes. While calls and messages could be made and received even without a 4G or 5G cellular connection using the tough Apple Watch Pro, a separate report asserts that this feature may be present. The news comes as Apple prepares for its "Far Out" presentation on September 7.
According to a reliable source in China cited by the Japanese website Mac Otakara, Apple will introduce a 47mm-sized edition of the Apple Watch with a "all-new design" that will employ a flat display housed in metal. According to rumours, this model is the Apple Watch Pro of the Apple Watch Series 8, which was previously supposed to undergo its first significant overhaul since 2018.
The allegedly tough Apple Watch Pro is rumoured to be 7% larger than the Watch Series 7 and is expected to have a strong titanium composition. Additionally, rather than having a circular shape, the redesigned dial was said to be a "evolution of the current rectangular shape." The CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC), Ross Young, suggested in a tweet that the display's size might be 1.99 inches.
According to a related rumour by Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman, the upcoming iteration of the rugged Apple Watch Pro could have satellite capabilities. Gurman earlier predicted that these functions would appear on upcoming Apple Watch versions. Wearers are reportedly able to make calls and send messages without a 4G or 5G cellular connection because to these characteristics.
When analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicted that the iPhone 13 would use LEO satellite communication to enable voice conversations and messaging without cellular coverage, these features first came to light. A body temperature sensor that can determine whether you have a fever will also be a part of Apple Watch Series 8, according to a report.
At the "Far Out" presentation on September 7, Apple is rumoured to introduce the Watch Series 8 together with the iPhone 14 series.
