mark the tenth anniversary of the wearable. Still, it won’t be the kind of sea change we saw with the iPhone X. Now the Apple Watch is nearing its 10th birthday, and the company has a chance to mark the occasion. This fall, Apple is planning some notable changes to its original smartwatch line — the “Series” models — including larger displays. The device also will be thinner, though the design itself is unlikely to look much different. —Mark Gurman That’s not to say that the larger screens won’t be significant. As we saw from last month’s renders, the display of the larger Apple Watch will likely match the size of the Apple Watch Ultra. However, it won’t be quite as bulky since there’s no need to make room for the rugged titanium casing or raised edges; instead, we’ll likely see the screen blend into the size much like it has since the Apple Watch Series 7 adopted the more contoured display. Meanwhile, Gurman says this year’s new “Apple Watch Ultra 3” won’t see any significant design changes. There’s not even any mention of the dark titanium finish that was rumored but never came to the Apple Watch Ultra 2.
