Apple is scheming to update and put into market their latest versions of Apple Watch in 2016. One of the two versions include a minor update to the recent model and the second is the so-called "Apple Watch 2" that has better features and specs as it has a GPS and barometer.
Ming-Chi Kuo, a well-connected KGI analyst, had said to the investors on Sunday about the new Apple's gadget timeline for the remaining of 2016.
The KGI analyst, Kuo, is very much certain that in the second half of 2016, Apple will launch its new versions of Apple Watch. These two upcoming new gadgets are offering so much improvement than the one in the markets now.
One of the two versions is said to be an advancement to the first Apple Watch and is said to have the same visual design but has an improved TSMC processor that was attached on the 16nm process. The waterproof feature of the watch will also be developed.
The next version that was named as the "Apple Watch 2" is more likely to have the same visual features of the original model, according to latest reports. However it will have its own latest specs like a GPS radio and barometer and even more improved capabilities on geolocation. Due to these developed new features, it needs to have a battery that has higher capacity, though the size of it will not allow the Apple's typical device slimming.
Looking forward, Kuo is not expecting Apple to create a new form of their wearable factor when 2017 comes, a year that will be the start of cellphones that is supported by LTE. In 2018, it is expected to have even more improved technological designs with its developed health applications.
From Kuo's own perception, these two devices will have a fiscal shipment in 2016 between 10 million and 11 million units that is up from between 7 million and 7.5 million.
