the iPhone 15 Not the only one New device we expect to see this year. back to Apple Watch Series 8 It’s also likely to hit shelves in 2023. Apple is the king of smartwatches, and they’ve been reigning supreme for years now despite a slow start. As 2023 begins, we’re looking forward to the next generation of the company’s popular watch, the Apple Watch Series 9.
Over the years, Apple has made a steady stream of upgrades for the Apple Watch, adding an always-on display in 2019, blood oxygen monitoring in 2020, a larger display in 2021, and a temperature sensor in 2022.
However, an incremental upgrade is likely to come this year, considering that Apple shook up its smartwatch lineup last year with the introduction of the luxury model. Apple Watch Ultra And Apple Watch SE second generation. At the moment, there are very few rumors that could be thrown around for the Watch Series 9 (unlike the Apple Watch Edition). iPhone 15 series), but we’ll be sure to update this article as we get a whiff of any credible hype.
New sensors
The main new health feature expected to arrive on the Apple Watch is continuous, non-invasive blood glucose monitoring, according to A Bloomberg report Posted in Feb. Currently, a blood glucose test requires pricking of the skin for blood. To test glucose levels without blood, Apple is said to be looking at an approach that involves using a silicon optical chip for a measurement process called optical absorption spectroscopy. The report says that this technology shines light from a laser under the skin to determine the amount of glucose in the body. While much progress has been made in bringing this feature to life, the technology has to be scaled down to fit into a wearable device. If Apple succeeds in this, it could potentially make the Apple Watch a staple in millions of families with diabetes.
Apple Watch Series 8 adds a temperature sensor. But how it works over time remains to be seen.

MicroLED screen?
The Apple Watch received an OLED display years before the iPhone, and now rumors are suggesting that the Apple Watch could adopt another screen upgrade ahead of Apple’s smartphones. According to a Bloomberg report, home-produced MicroLED displays are set to appear on the next Apple Watch Ultra model, which could arrive in 2024 at the earliest. Previous rumors had suggested that 2023 would be the year of the MicroLED Apple Watch. This marks another effort on Apple’s part to reduce its reliance on outside technology partners — in this case Samsung and LG — as it strives to build more components on its own.
Not to be confused with Mini-LED, MicroLED is touted as the next major leap forward for display technology from OLED. It gets its name from the millions of tiny pixels that directly create the image. The main hurdle to mass adoption is getting pixels (and screens) small enough. MicroLED is much brighter than OLED with similar perfect black levels and no risk of burn-in.
Release date and price
Apple has released a new generation of Apple Watch every year since its debut. This year, unless the company breaks with tradition, the Apple Watch Series 9 will likely arrive in the fall of 2023 alongside the iPhone 15 series.
There are no leaks regarding the starting price of the Apple Watch 9 series. However, the price has remained the same for several years now, at least in the US, and we expect the prices to remain the same in 2023. Apple Watch Series 8 Starting at $399.
what we expect
We expect the Apple Watch Series 9 to have everything the Watch Series 8 has. These features include an always-on display and different size and finish options. We also expect the Watch Series 9 to receive an upgraded processor (possibly the S9) and support for the next software version, WatchOS 10. We hope to see improvements in battery life as well, which the Watch 8 didn’t.
