A late-breaking leak regarding the Apple Watch Series 10 shows that Apple wants to offer new size options for the smartwatch, perfect for those with smaller wrists.
The Apple Watch Series 10 was rumored to come in 45mm and 49mm sizes, a significant increase over its predecessor’s 41mm and 45mm options. However, leaker Majin Bu has claimed that this won’t be the case.
The leaker claims that Apple Watch Series 10 buyers will be able to choose between 42mm and 46mm sizes. According to Majin Bu, the display is still expected to be curved, but a photo of what looks like screen protectors for the device shows a flat surface.
These rumors about sizing options should be advantageous for those with smaller wrists, and they seem more accurate. But as of now, nothing has been confirmed. Also, be sure to take this with a grain of salt, as Bu doesn’t have the most accurate track record.
Earlier this year, they predicted a fidget spinner-style camera island for the iPhone 16 Pro and even leaked a fake invitation for the iPhone 16 event. To be fair, though, Bu also made some seemingly accurate predictions about the standard iPhone 16 design and battery specs for all four models, which other sources have confirmed.
The Apple Watch Series 10 is expected to launch on September 9 alongside the iPhone 16 lineup and possibly the new AirPods 4.
The new smartwatch is said to feature a thinner design. Apple is said to have used Thin Film Transistor (LTPO) technology for the OLED display of the Apple Watch 10 series. The new LTPO OLED could help reduce power consumption even further.
Apple is also rumored to introduce a new blood pressure monitoring feature in the upcoming Watch Series 10, allowing wearers to track blood pressure trends.
