this is what the Apple Watch looks like with a notch
The notch has been around for a while with the iPhone. Now the MacBook Pro has the signature bite out of the screen too. Will the notch also find its way to the Apple Watch? At least in this concept, yes.
Read on after the ad.
Apple Watch with notch
Images of the Meta smartwatch appeared on Thursday, which has a notch with a built-in camera. For news site 9to5Mac reason to create a concept. What if Apple brings the notch to the Apple Watch too?
The product concept was created by Parker Ortolani. At the top is a notch with a camera. It is a lot smaller than with the iPhone and MacBook Pro, because there is only a camera in it. Facial recognition (Face ID) sensors are not required.
The camera notch allows Apple to bring FaceTime to the Watch. There could also be a full-fledged Camera app for watchOS, with which it is possible to shoot selfies. In the concept above, Ortolani demonstrates what that might look like.
Will the Apple Watch get a camera?
Should Apple bring a camera to the Watch, the design could very much resemble the concept above. Now that the Apple Watch Series 7 has a screen that extends over the edge, a notch is really the only way the company can make this possible.
There have been no rumors of an Apple Watch with a camera yet, so it’s unlikely that the concept will become a reality soon. Still, we do see it happening that in a few years you can FaceTime with the Apple Watch.
However, we consider a full-fledged camera app – such as on the iPhone – unlikely. Apple takes privacy very seriously, so the company undoubtedly wants to prevent you from secretly taking photos or recording video calls.
