Following up on Kuo’s recent statement, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman now reports that Apple will integrate a body temperature sensor into its upcoming Apple Watch Series 8. The tipster also shared new information about the Apple Watch SE 2 and a rugged version of the Apple Watch. Check out the details right below!
In the latest edition of his Power On newsletter, Gurman reports that the Apple Watch Series 8 and a rugged sports edition of the Apple Watch would feature a new sensor to measure the approximate body temperature of a user. The Apple Watch SE 2, however, will skip the sensor, probably due to its lower price point. This further confirms the possibility of three Apple Watches this year.
Other Apple Watch Series 8 Expectations
Other than these, Gurman noted that the Apple Watch Series 8 would retain the same S6 chipset, which was introduced with the Apple Watch Series 6. This will be the third time Apple will use the same chip for its watch. It is probably due to the fact that Apple is now focusing more on its Mac chipsets like the M1 and the M2 chipsets instead of focusing on iPhone or Apple Watch chipsets.
