Displays for an upcoming update of the Apple Watch SE are already in production, according to analyst Ross Young — as noted by MacRumors.
He predicts that the upcomingApple Watch SE 3 will be available with 1.6-inch and 1.8-inch display sizes. The current Apple Watch SE 2 comes in 40mm and 44mm sizes.
In September 2024 Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman said that a new Apple Watch SE with plastic shell was in development. He said it will come in bolder colors. The idea was to potentially bring down the price with a cheaper material, while also making the device more kid-friendly.
However, last month Gurman said “the [Apple] design team doesn’t like the look, and the operations team is finding it difficult to make the casing materially cheaper than the current aluminum chassis.”
