The company initially released the affordable smartwatch model, Watch SE, in 2020. Later, in 2022, they presented the Apple Watch SE 2. While it was expected that Apple would unveil another Watch SE model this year, a renowned analyst has provided a timeline for the third-generation Apple Watch SE.
Third gen Apple Watch SE is expected in 2024
According to the well-known analyst, Mark Gurman, Apple has no plans to release a third-generation Apple Watch SE this year. Gurman stated that the Watch SE will remain within its two-year model refresh cycle, which means the third-generation model is expected to hit the market in September 2024.
Therefore, for those looking to purchase a smartwatch, it’s worth noting that there will be over a year of waiting ahead for the third-generation Apple Watch SE. For those who still wish to get an Apple-branded smartwatch, the Watch SE appears to be the most affordable option.
Apple invites developers to explore Vision Pro labs in global hubs and sets out stringent regulations for the tester kits.
The second-generation Watch SE, which is priced at 249 dolars on Apple’s official website, lacks some features found in the company’s other smartwatches. These features include the ECG app, blood oxygen level measurement, always-on display, and a thermometer.
Additionally, the second-generation Watch SE has a smaller screen and thicker bezels compared to other smartwatches. Through small technical and design tweaks, Apple can offer the Watch SE model at a more budget-friendly price.
While Apple will not unveil the third-generation Watch SE model in September, it is expected to release the Watch Series 9 and the second-generation Apple Watch Ultra during that time. It seems that the company will wait another year to launch its budget-friendly model.
