Apple Watch 9:all the new features of the future Apple Watch

With Apple's new Apple Watch Series 9  due to be unveiled subsequent month, we check all the rumors surrounding it, from its overall performance to its design and operating machine.

Every year, back-to-school also means the launch of new Apple products. In mid-September, the American company makes a habit of introducing not only its new iPhones, but also its new connected watches, the Apple Watch. This year, we're expecting not only an Apple Watch Ultra 2, following on from last year's model, but also a more classic Apple Watch Series 9.

While we await its official announcement, let's take a look at the various rumors surrounding the future Apple Watch 9.

A more powerful chip

With each new generation of Apple Watch comes a new integrated chip. Nevertheless, recent generations of Apple Watches have tended to rest on their laurels. The Apple S8 chip that equipped the Apple Watch Series 8 was in fact based largely on the characteristics of the Apple S7 chip, itself very similar to the Apple S6 chip in the Apple Watch Series 6.

For this ninth-generation Apple Watch, the manufacturer has therefore decided to revise its in-house development of the SiP (system in package) chip, basing itself on... an iPhone processor.

According to Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman, Apple has decided to base the improvement of its Apple S9 chip on the Apple A15 Bionic processor used within the iPhone 13. The concept is for the American manufacturer to offer a processor that is each extra powerful and more green in terms of strength management. In concrete terms, users might gain from a smoother, more responsive interface, in addition to stepped forward autonomy thanks to a finer etching manner. The Apple A15 was engraved with a 5 nm processor, as compared with 7 nm for the previous Apple S8 chip.

A new interface with watchOS 10

Announced at Apple's WWDC 2023 conference, watchOS 10 is the ultra-modern device update for Apple Watch. This new edition of the machine should be one of the main sights of the brand new Apple Watch nine, since it represents a main overhaul of the connected watch interface.

Among the other new features integrated into watchOS 10, the Apple watch Series 9 will be entitled to new applications for managing the weather, messages, the clock or heart rate. For athletes, and cyclists in particular, watchOS 10 will enable the watch to display more data such as functional power threshold or pedaling cadence. Last but not least, as with every new version of watchOS, the update will bring new dials, including Palette and Snoopy.

The only hitch is that, while watchOS 10 should be one of the major new features of the Apple Watch Series 9, the update will not be reserved for this watch alone. As it does every year, Apple will also be rolling out this update to its previous models, from the Apple Watch Series 4 to the Apple Watch Series 8. The beta version of watchOS 10 is already available for download.

A new red colour

In terms of layout, Apple is unlikely to make any adjustments to its previous watches. The Apple Watch Series nine must preserve the equal form because the manufacturer's previous toquantes, and nevertheless be to be had in two sizes: forty one and 45 mm. The watch need to also be provided in  finishes, aluminum or stainless steel, as on previous models.

In concrete terms, if this information is confirmed, the aluminum version would come in midnight (black), starlight (gold), product red (red), silver and pink. The stainless steel version would be available in gold, silver and graphite.

A transitional watch while awaiting the Apple Watch Series X

Given the rumours that have been circulating for several months, we shouldn't expect any major changes to the Apple Watch Series 9. After all, Apple's watches have changed very little in recent years. The Apple Watch Series 7 brought a larger screen, while the Apple Watch Series 8 made do with a new skin temperature sensor.

However, if Apple appears as a substitute sparing with the brand new functions of the Apple Watch 9, it's due to the fact the firm is in fact working on a first-rate evolution of its range as early as subsequent year. According to facts from journalist Mark Gurman, Apple is said to have an Apple Watch Series X inside the pipeline, which is anticipated to shake up its range of linked watches just as tons as the iPhone X did in 2017.

This Apple Watch X should be launched sometime next yr, probably at the identical time as the iPhone sixteen and 16 Pro. According to Bloomberg's reporter, it's going to function a slimmer case than contemporary fashions, as well as a brand new strap attachment gadget: "keeping the same design lets in the straps to be well matched with vintage and new fashions, but it has its flaws". In concrete terms, this new attachment gadget have to soak up less space to allow integration of a bigger battery.

In any case, whilst the Apple Watch Series 9 is not likely to bring any most important improvements to the Apple range, it would still have the advantage of presenting a more current and slightly more powerful model, now not for proprietors of the Apple Watch Series 7 or eight, however for those with older watches... Whilst we anticipate the Apple Watch Series X.

Apple Watch Series 9 charge and launch date

It stays to be seen when Apple will officially announce its new Apple Watch Series 9. As every year, the watch is due to be offered at the producer's returned-to-school keynote, at the identical time as the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro.

According to records from journalist Mark Gurman, this convention should take region as early as September 12. A date that seems consistent with preceding launches. In 2022, the keynote took place on September 7, and in 2021, on September 14.

As for pricing, given the lack of recent features expected this year, we will count on fees inside the same vein as remaining year's model. As a reminder, the Apple Watch Series 8 began at 400$.
