The next iteration of the Apple Watch is expected to launch in September, alongside the iPhone 15 and other devices just like previous years. Often, the upgrades to the main Apple Watch series are very much incremental, but a new report claims a new processor will give this year’s watches a significant speed boost.
The best Apple Watches have been running on similar speeds since the S6 chip launched in 2020 with the Apple Watch Series 6. The S6 chip, along with the subsequent S7 and S8 chipsets, have been based on Apple’s A13 Bionic chip originally created for the iPhone 11. This includes last year’s crop of watches comprising the Apple Watch 8, Apple Watch SE 2 and Apple Watch Ultra.
