Apple’s Glowtime event was rather devoid of Apple Watch content, with Apple only revealing the new Apple Watch Series 10 and Satin Black Apple Watch Ultra 2. What we didn’t see was a new version of the low-cost Apple Watch SE, which was rumored to come with a plastic shell. But this doesn’t mean it isn’t coming.
Mark Gurman claims that work on the budget smartwatch is “still moving forward” with sources telling the Bloomberg reporter that it could arrive sometime next year. Gurman doesn’t go into much more detail, only that Apple is having issues with cost and quality issues due to a potential switch to plastic. So anyone hoping to pick up a new Apple Watch SE will have to be patient.
