The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is generating speculation and anticipation in the Apple community. While many are eagerly awaiting a new version of this cutting-edge smartwatch, respected analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has provided surprising information. In this article, we will take a closer look at his explanations and learn why it may be some time before we see the Apple Watch Ultra 3.
The Apple Watch Ultra series has established itself as one of the most popular and advanced smartwatches on the market. It has won the hearts of users with impressive performance and innovative features. The Apple Watch Ultra 2, launched in 2023, set new standards in terms of speed and display quality. But the question that many are asking is: what will come next?
Why hasn't Apple started yet?
Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst who often provides accurate insights into Apple's product development, has attracted attention. His information according to Apple hasn't even started development on the Apple Watch Ultra 3 yet, raising questions about its release date. The product development timeline so far suggests we could expect a new Apple Watch Ultra in 2024. But Kuo says that might be unlikely if Apple doesn't start development by December. His guess is based on Apple's efforts to develop innovative health features and overcome the challenges of manufacturing micro-LEDs.
The potential of microLED displays
However, Kuo's report also highlights the potential impact of a delayed update, predicting that Apple Watch Ultra shipments could drop by 20 to 30 percent in 2024, and total Apple Watch shipments could drop by 10 percent to about 35 million units in 2024. Interestingly, Kuo supports recent rumors that the next Apple Watch Ultra might not launch until 2025. This version could come with an impressive microLED display that will outshine the current OLED display. This display could not only be brighter but also significantly increase the battery life of the Apple Watch Ultra.
Expectations for the Apple Watch Ultra 3
While the Apple Watch Ultra 3 continues to wait for development, the Apple community remains curious and hopeful for innovative features and improvements. Although the delay could negatively affect sales, the long-term benefits of having a microLED display could make the wait worth it. We will continue to eagerly await news from Apple and hope for an impressive Apple Watch Ultra 3 in the future. Looking for new accessories?
