We’ve already heard rumors that the next version of the Apple Watch SE may ditch its aluminum chassis for one made of hard plastic — in an attempt to save costs. Now Mark Gurman at Bloomberg is reiterating that rumor in his Power On newsletter.
Gurman doesn’t go into much detail, only noting it’s sounding “increasingly likely” that the next generation Apple Watch SE will be using rigid plastics. Which is a shame for those of you wanting a low-cost smartwatch with a premium metal feel, but could be ideal for those of you that value a low price tag and a cheap design.
