Apple Watch Series 8: better physical activity tracking and more powerful chip
The Apple Watch Series 8 will have the right to “Major updates to physical activity tracking” according to information from Mark Gurman. The Bloomberg Reporter share also other details.
Improvements coming with the new Apple Watch
The Apple Watch Series 8 would not experience a major health change. It is therefore to be expected that any new features for this point will be slight compared to the current watch. On the other hand, Apple would offer significant improvements for monitoring physical activity. There is no juicy detail about it. On the other hand, Gurman announces the arrival of a more powerful chip. It might seem logical from one generation to another, but we must not forget that the chip of the Apple Watch Series 7 is essentially the same as that of the Series 6. A boost would therefore not be refused .
The journalist also confirms that Apple should offer three Apple Watch models this year. There would be the Apple Watch Series 8, a new Apple Watch SE and a more resistant Apple Watch which would be especially interesting for sportswomen doing extreme activities.
Another point concerns the Apple Watch Series 3. Apple could well draw a line under this model with the launch of the Series 8. Its abandonment is not really a surprise given the “problems” that users are encountering. For example, we now need to restore the watch for the updated watch. Suffice to say that it is not very practical. With newer models, this step is not necessary.
