Apple first launched his Toned-Down Watch-Apple Watch SE-in 2020. The idea was to bring an affordable apple watch for the user, even if some edges were cut off. Apple Watch SE2, launched in 2022, also suits 1.57 inches and 1.73 inch size options. However, a rumor recently suggests that it can change with the upcoming watch SE3. According to analyst Ross Young, Apple has started working on Apple Watch SE 3, which begins with its performance. He reports that the upcoming Watch SE3 will be introduced in 1.6-inch and 1.8-inch display size, indicating minimal changes compared to the current Apple Watch SE model.

Apple Watch SE 3: New display size

Apple deployed Watch SE as a inexpensive option in its smartwatch lineup, especially appealed to young users. Keeping this in mind, a small, more wrist-friendly Apple Watch SE 3 makes sense-either if it combines a compact design with a large display and slimmer bezels for a more modern form.

Historically, the Apple Watch SE has followed the design of the previous generation model with the current version based on series 6. Apple may stick well with that design language for the next update, but many alternative paths are possible. For example, the upcoming SE model can take inspiration from the larger series 7, with 41 mm and 45 mm cases size. Alternatively, the Apple SE can unveil a completely new design for the SE line.

Some reports suggest that Apple is working on a version of the Watch SE with a hard plastic cover available in the selection of bright, fun colors. However, it is uncertain whether this concept is beyond planning stages. If the Apple moves away from its general design strategy, the next watch can offer a 1.6- and 1.8-inch display in a slim-down chassis-which is close to the old 38 mm and 42 mm options. This will allow for a small form factor, while still provides more screen real estate, thanks to less bezels.

It is also important to note that the performance size being reported may not be completely accurate, due to the potentially difference. Nevertheless, the possibility of a refreshing design – this series 6, series 7, or something completely based on new – the door is open for interesting development in the next Apple Watch SE.

Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3 to launch soon

The year 2025 is ready to be an important for Apple Watch, with the host of new features and health-focused updates on the way-although there may be a slight change in the overall design.

According to Mark Gurman, the upcoming Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3 are expected to maintain a design according to their predecessors. However, they will present some remarkable promotion. The most important thing is that Ultra 3 has been tipped to support both satellite connectivity and 5G Redcap technology, which greatly enhances its connectivity capabilities.

One of the major health joints for both models is to detect blood pressure. Although this new feature will not provide detailed readings, it will alert users to the potential signals of high blood pressure – for how Apple currently handles to detect sleep apnea. The functionality was initially planned for the Apple Watch Series 10, but was allegedly delayed by a thin hardware design obstacles. Now, it appears that Apple is ready to move forward with convenience in this year’s model.

Apart from the hardware upgrade, Gurman noted that Apple is also working on a improved health app and a new AI-operated coaching service, which aims to support personal welfare. While there is no confirmation timeline for their release, it is possible that they can launch with new airpods equipped with cardiovascular monitoring technology.

Despite the minimal visual changes, the focus has been on advancing Apple with a meaningful update that increases health tracking and connectivity – Apple Watch as an even more competent health and fitness partner in the next year.
