I just don’t see how the magnets would be strong enough…if you hit it on something it could fall off your wrist

I’m getting an Ultra 2 tomorrow. I’m personally not a fan of the supposed new design of the AW 10. I’ll obviously be sticking with the Ultra 2 for at least the next five years.

I think Apple will also release SE 3 with Series 9 body so Apple can keep on Selling the 41mm version of it.. because I don’t see Apple ditching the “older design” anytime soon..

I have a 5.5" wrist. I can't wear anything bigger than 41mm. So it looks like I won't be able to wear Apple watches anymore. I have no idea what Apple is thinking. I'm not unusually tiny, by any stretch. I have a standard sized Small wrist. There will be many men and women who can't wear these watches any more. So, given that, I don't care what Apple does with these watches. Thanks for the video.

My wrist doesnt get bigger every year, Apple. Stop it. 38mm was already large enough, then it became 40, then 41, and now 45?

Wtf. 41mm was already too big. I guess I'll never get an Apple watch.

I waited for these leaks to come out before deciding whether to wait. I didn’t. I ended up buying the Series 9. I’m very happy with it.

I’m excited about a thinner watch and a general design refresh, to upgrade from my 7.

Apple is losing touch with the everyday user of their products. Bigger doesn't always mean better.

I’m thinking about getting one, but I might get the Ultra 2 before the new models come out.

Wow can’t wait new Apple Watches

Greg, if you wake up feeling tired/drowsy, try getting a CO2 monitor. If your room is not properly ventilated then the CO2 levels can rise up very quickly and this makes you feel drowsy and can even give you headaches etc. You might need to install ventilation in your house. Also just opening a window doesn't do much, you need active airflow.

Would need a whole design, hopefully new band won’t fall off!

What would be interesting is tiny power banks built into a premium class of these new wristbands; charging analogous to iPad Pro via its Magic Keyboard.

I like the thought of a new design I have a few doubts about magnetic bands, can you imagine catching it on something and it falls off crashing face down on the cement? Ouch 😮

I’ve been waiting for a redesign. This might be the moment I finally treat myself to an Apple Watch.

What strap have you got on your ultra?

Thanks! Now I’m 1000% sure of getting a Garmin Fenix 7 pro

I am still using an AW Series 4 that I’ve had since launch. I’m gonna wait for a future ultra model to see if the battery life and screen size increases and if there are any significant new health features.

Yes, I think Apple Watch X needs AI Siri. Having AI Siri on the watch might as well be the biggest game changer for the anniversary model of the watch.

what about those interchangable bands which has some functions meaning the band is not a adummy band but can do some functions

How do the “magnetic” bands that they’ve said for years could interfere with the compass not interfere going forward with the new watch?

Running apple intelligence locally on the apple watch is a pipe dream with the current tech

I wish they could make it look circular. Or flat with thin bezels like the ultra

I dont want a bigger watch lol, it needs to be significantly smaller, like normal watches are. 😢

I just got my ultra 2 back in march it doesn’t seem like this new watch will be much better but who knows I think the Ultra series will remain strong for a while

I have a feeling the bands will have the same connection method to the watch that they do now but the new watches will have magnets in the middle of the connection loop that connects to the magnet on the band for added band accessory functions. That way your current collection of bands will still work but they won’t be the “smart band” that might allow for added sensors to the band or added health features.

When is it coming out? It will be my first watch

Magnetic bands would be a deal-breaker for me. Too easy for someone to snatch it off.

what about the blood oxygen level? that apple lost the lawsuit for

Blood pressure? Heck yeah

I am curious to see if an Apple Watch SE 3 is going to be released in September.

Thanks for the video. I am very concerned with the magnetic watch band. 1. Will the magnet interfere with a person with a pacemaker? 2. Will the magnet withstand an active lifestyle without breaking loose and potentially losing the watch?

I don’t mind a small increase in size but I wear the 41mm and chose it as I don’t want a huge watch on my skinny wrist. Also not sure about the magnetic band but will wait and see. Definitely need to have a chip that can handle intelligence or at least smarter Siri. Can’t see us getting an M1 powered watch though 😳

If they up the small size to 45mm, then they just lost a long time Apple Watch user. That’s just way too large for my wrist.

You know, I really have to hand it to you. You have really become one of my favorite Apple channels and you’ve come a long way. Thanks for your content and all you do and for sticking with this.

I honestly need them to do a redesign on the Apple Watch because I’m losing interest in buying one in the future, the battery life is terrible and it also feels like it could be so much more than what it is and has been for too many years.

they need to just make the battery life better first.

maybe Apple Watch ultra retain de band mechanism, because for the nature of the device, the magnetic mechanism can fail on specific circumstances, but who knows!!!

If you extend out a bar from the watch similar to the bar on the band and have a hollowed out part on the band and still use magnets, still sliding it on, it's the same as now just the hollowed out connecter is on the band, you still slide it on so it can't be pulled off. You're just swapping connectors, so seems the same, design might be off, you need to prototype a few. Honestly there are lots of ways to do it, the current system uses too much of the watch.

Looking forward to it

apple: hi, time to buy some new bands!

Apple keep on changing in minimal phase, next year it will be the bezel and the next year they change shape.

Apple Watch should've be the first to get Apple Intelligence. Maybe, it's such a huge release, they will keep the features for the Apple Watch on release day?

Will stick with my Ultra 2 for a few more yet

Apple watch fans are lucccckkkkkyyyyyy. I want the next galaxy watch but i cant wait!!

Apple Intelligence directly on the Apple Watch would require additional silicon and reduce uptime on a single battery charge. But if you happen to also carry an iPhone that supports Apple Intelligence, perhaps the watch could serve as the human interface.

Damn ! I thought apple actually announced this . Had to go check the website :)

Magnets will be breaking bands and dropping watches left and right.

Thanks Greg, as always,, I think they didn't talk about the AI capabilities in the apple watch because it's important enough to make it it's own special announcement when they upgrade.

I just hope apple’s next year smart ring is as good as this year’s apple watch 😅

I saw one in the shop, The band was Rainbow but I couldn't get it too expensive.

This is what I’m waiting for being a current Ultra 1 owner 😅 I want to see the X and Ultra 3. The Ultra should get satellite access

I just want a flat display to be able to use a glass screen protector!!!!

I agree I think ai would be nice for Apple Watch. I’d rather get FaceTime camera inside though it’s really the only product without a camera inside

On a magnetic band what is going to keep someone from grabbing the watch and running off?

I bought my first smart watch,the S9, a few days ago. I’m not one for changing tech often but if the health features make a significant jump then for the first time in my life, I’ll get rid of ‘new tech’ for the latest tech.

The new magnetic band system makes me leery. Seems might be easier for theft off the wrist if pulled hard enough or snags on something and come off. Could just be me.

Where's the usual Don’t Be Fooled!

Aren't the existing watches already probably too big for some people anyway?

Can i use the new strap with iphone 13 mini?

if apple changes the strap system it would shock me. 45mm for the small size seems unrealistic.

Magnetic band won't work. If you hit your watch against something or someone, it will fall off

After using the IPhone 12 Pro Max for a couple years I opted for the IPhone 15 Pro and don’t mind the smaller size. I really wish Apple released an IPhone 15 mini/Pro mini. I do still rock my Apple Series 3 GPS watch as it’s holding up well but I’d love to upgrade to the Ultra 3 or even just the Series X if the battery life would get drastically better.

If you want better heat distribution, better chips able to use AI on board. You need nore ram, makes perfect sense for the size increase to me.

I’m now a happy owner of a Garmin watch, and so won’t move back to the AW (even if it’s completely redesigned) until the battery lasts at least a week.

Nice video

I have a small wrist, I hate chucky watches

Duh…blood pressure requires an expanding cuff ie a new band and there’s no way magnets would be strong enough! As for Apple AI, my prediction is a client (watch) server (iPhone) setup. Which would also work for HomePods with AppleTV running M4 though that would require a serious firmware update.

Case design will be largely unchanged. Band system remains the same. You’ll see.

Even the IPad Air now has a 13 inch model! 😳

I personally use the SE2. I just use my watch to run and listen to music

5:04 I mean Samsung has had this tech for years but it hasn't pasted the FDA yet... Likely because it will drift and give you a false reading and not alert you of it... Despite needing to be calibrated every month... Like I was using it to Montier my blood pressure... and it got me in trouble fortuneatly I go to the doctor's alot so I knew to check it at home with my wrist one which has never been wrong... And my Galaxy 6 classic was off 30 points... and did not ask to be recalbrated.... So yeah I would be cearfull with apple's version especly if you don't neeed a decated Blood pressure machine to use it.

We still need a 41mm watch, tech is more sophisticated the smaller it can be made. I always buy the smaller watch now, it feels more futuristic.

I hope the bigger watch could reach 20hours battery life😂

I hit my wrist on rocks in fast moving rivers.. I don’t think the magnetic band will work for me

They need to seriously up their battery game or I have to go garmin. My SE 2nd gen barely makes it through a day now.

Apple should keep the 41mm for people with small wrist sizes. The only thing which matters is much longer battery life like 4-5 days.

I’d say 43mm and 47mm would be perfect sizes for both small and big wrists respectively. Anything bigger than that would really look awkward.

New health tracking will be the only way that I am going to update for my current Apple Watch 6.

Is the "radical redesign" in the room with us right now?

I want like a 3" watch. Maybe even a whole ahh iPhone 4 on my wrist.

The proposed new band mechanism will not work, for those that use their watch for sport, in the gym etc al. For a magnetic band to work, when engaged in sport etc, the magnet will have to be super super strong. If it isn’t? We will have cases where the watch keeps falling off your wrist and potentially being damaged.

Apple is engaged in a legal battle with Masimo over the blood oxygen sensor because Apple violated Masimo's patent. Will Apple be able to release an oximeter this year or have they managed to create one themselves that no longer has any connection with the masimo one?

The analog watch scene is all about smaller watches right now… I guess Apple is anticipating the next trend? … 🤷🏻‍♂️

That magnetic band wouldnt be ideal for someone whos very active in outdoor activies.

I don’t think the sizes will be that large, the size is part of the reason to buy an ultra, but who knows Apple has surprised us before

Not a fan of magnets to keep my Ultra on my wrist.

I’ll just stick with the Ultra 1 until the battery starts to fail me.

i just want a flatter screen so 3rd party companies can make a tempered glass because i just couldnt afford to buy a stainless steel lol

Magnetic bands come from the same team they gave us the Fine Woven case

I didn't realize I had sleep apnea until I got older. I snored and never ever felt fully rested, no matter how much sleep I got. Or if I did, it was the rarest of occasions. However, I wear the breathing strips and they tend to help a bit with the apnea for sure. Until they invent a machine that is quiet and non-obtrusive I'll never get one of those CPAP machines.

I like my 45mm watch, but so many people (like my mom) can’t go any bigger than the 41mm

Hopefully they just make the bezels smaller and the screen bigger rather than make the whole watch bigger

I wish they’d calm down on making these things bigger. I am in the market and I don’t think I want the big size right now. Imagine if that size was the standard. I’d like my watch to just be an accessory.

It is more likely for Apple to try hand off the AI to the iPhone and then present it to you on the Apple Watch. More than an NPU, a device that runs a local model would require a lot of RAM and storage. The limited RAM in the standard iPhone 15 is a contributing factor as to why it doesn't get all the Apple Intelligence features. I don't see how they get all of that into a highly energy sensitive device like an Apple Watch.

Magnetic bands are gonna be stupid. Watch a ton of watches just fall off. I’ll stick to my ultra 2.

just spent $400 on Nomad Titanium RIP my purchase

Well, it's a non starter since you still have to charge it every night. What are they thinking of. I have a 39 dollar smart watch that I charge every 14 days whether it needs it or not. No, not as smart as the Apple watch but if you're traveling charging the watch every few hours is a real pain.

If the band is magnetic I won't buy it. I can see it flying off my wrist with my activities.
