This fall marks the eighth anniversary of the announcement of Apple's newest major hardware category, the Apple Watch. In that time, it has become the leading example of a wearable device, and though other companies have produced competitors, none of those has quite managed to match the popularity or cachet of the Apple Watch.
The device has evolved too-perhaps not as dramatically as the iPhone did in its first eight years-changing from a do-everything phone replacement on the wrist to one focused on health and fitness...and then back to its phone replacement roots. It's gotten a larger screen, more sensors, and different case materials, but you still can't make your own watch faces.
What's on tap for the Apple Watch this fall? What does Apple, if you'll excuse the expression, have up its sleeve? Unsurprisingly, rumors already abound (fave.co/3P1265t).
RUGGEDLY HANDSOME
Over the last few years, there's been more than one report that Apple is working on a different version of the Apple Watch: one aimed less at those looking for a fashionable accessory and more at the active users who put their devices through the wringer. Though Apple has lately tried to emphasize just how tough the Apple Watch is (fave.co/3ByMUmC), there's always room for improvement. (As someone who recently broke an Apple Watch, I can report this firsthand.)
