Apple Watch 'Pro' Rumored to Feature Bigger Display, Body Temperature Sensor
Apple is expected to unveil three versions of its smartwatch this fall: the new SE, Series 8 and a high-end model, called the Apple Watch "Pro." The latter will feature a major redesign, longer battery life and a body temperature sensor, among other upgrades, according to a Sunday report from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
Gurman says the high-end Apple Watch's screen will be 7% larger than the standard model and sport a fresh design that is an "evolution of the current rectangular shape" without being circular. The Apple Watch "Pro" is also rumored to feature a more durable titanium body.
As for health features, the high-end Apple Watch is said to have a body temperature sensor. A previous report from Bloomberg suggests the sensor will be able to detect fevers and tell you when to check with a dedicated thermometer or consult a doctor.
The Apple Watch "Pro" may offer longer battery life, as well. Gurman suggests the high-end Apple Watch will support multiple day uses on a single charge through a new low-power mode.
Apple has yet to announce a release date for its upcoming Apple Watch, but rumors point to a fall launch alongside the iPhone 14 and AirPods Pro 2.
Apple didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
