There's no doubt that the iPhone 12 launch on September 12this one of the most anticipated products of the year. In addition to the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Plus, and the cheapest iPhone, Apple is also planning to unveil the new Apple Watch Series 4, which will feature a number of new updates.
The Apple Watch Series 4 isn't going to be a complete refresh of the existing smartwatch, although it will include design changes that will bring it into line with the new approach Apple is using for other products.
In terms of appearance, the upcoming smartwatch that will be released on September 12 will come with improvements, as Apple has specifically worked on reducing the bezels and thus improving the available screen. This means a larger screen and smaller bezels, which in turn means more functionality.
The display could be about 15 percent larger than the previous model, and that's certainly a significant achievement. The dimensions of the watch won't change too much, although the display will change size, and that's important for two different reasons.
First, it means the display is getting better, as we mentioned above, and it also allows Apple Watch Series 4 buyers to continue using the bands they bought for previous generations. This has become more of a legacy Apple Watch thing, as Apple wants bands to work from one model to the next, especially since there's an entire industry built around this idea and customers typically pay extra for bands.
There won't be a built-in camera or notch, as previously leaked, but there's a chance Apple could add a second microphone, which could improve voice calls and interaction with Siri.
Apple wants to improve the activity tracking capabilities of its wearable device, so the device can have features like sleep tracking and support for new types of sports. Improved water resistance is also likely to be offered.
The heart rate sensor will likely be upgraded for more accurate readings, and the Apple Watch Series 4 could launch with a larger battery. This is mainly necessary due to the larger display, but at the same time, the new features may be rather demanding, especially when it comes to using sensors to track activities.
While the dimensions may not change, the weight could, especially due to the larger battery we're talking about. However, it won't be a significant increase.
Pricing will be no different from the previous generation, and Apple will start a pre-order program on September 14, which is the first Friday after the company's press event on September 12. If the same roadmap as the previous one is maintained, the smartwatch is expected to be released on September 21.
