As the Apple Watch nears its 10th anniversary, Apple is gearing up for a significant overhaul of its smartwatch line.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Reportedly, the new Series 10 models will feature larger displays and a sleeker design, while the more budget-friendly Apple Watch SE is set to become even more affordable.<\/span><\/p>\n As the Apple Watch approaches its 10th birthday, Apple is planning a big update to its smartwatch line, according to <\/span>Mark Gurman in his \u201cPower On\u201d <\/span>Bloomberg <\/span><\/i>newsletter<\/span><\/a>. This fall, the <\/span>Series 10 models<\/span><\/a> \u2014 codenamed N217 and N218 \u2014 will supposedly have larger displays, similar to the size of the Apple Watch Ultra. Even with the bigger screens, the design will stay thin, keeping the classic look.<\/span><\/p>\n Major Updates for Apple Watch Series 10<\/b><\/p>\n It is still uncertain if Apple will market these new models as anniversary editions or wait until 2025 for a bigger celebration. The original Apple Watch was announced in 2014 but released in 2015, giving Apple some flexibility in celebrating its milestone.<\/span><\/p>\n As Apple gets ready to launch the Series 10 Apple Watch, the company is also working on adding advanced health tools. However, these new features are facing some big challenges, which could delay their release.<\/span><\/p>\n Allegedly, Apple has had reliability problems with the high blood pressure detection feature during testing. This might make the company postpone its release beyond this year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Unlike traditional blood pressure cuffs, this feature is not meant to give exact readings. Instead, it will set a baseline and monitor increases in blood pressure, alerting users when their levels rise.<\/span><\/p>\n Sleep apnea detection needs to measure blood oxygen saturation. Apple Watches can’t do this right now because of legal disputes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Apple is in a legal fight with Masimo<\/span><\/a> over using blood oxygen measurement technology. The outcome of this dispute will affect when sleep apnea detection can be added to the Apple Watch.<\/span><\/p>\n Apple has been reportedly working on non-invasive glucose monitoring technology for nearly ten years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Apparently, they have made significant progress and hit major milestones, bringing them closer to adding this feature to future Apple Watch models.<\/span><\/p>\n Besides the upcoming Series 10, Apple is also said to be focusing on its cheaper model, the Apple Watch SE. The company last updated the SE in 2022, and is now working on a new version to make it even more affordable.<\/span><\/p>\n As the Apple Watch nears its 10th anniversary, Apple is gearing up for a significant overhaul of its smartwatch line.\u00a0 Reportedly, the new Series 10 models will feature larger displays and a sleeker design, while the more budget-friendly Apple Watch SE is set to become even more affordable.
