'Apple Watch Pro' Rumored to Feature Larger 47mm Case Size With Flat Display

[tridley68]

I'm already looking forward to upgrading my 45mm series 7 if this is true seeking in some TV at work on a large screen less noticeable than my phone will be sweet.

I’ve wanted an Apple Watch since the beginning when they first came out. Passed b/c 24 hour battery life unacceptable for me. Ended up buying a Galaxy Watch 3. I could easily get 6 days battery life w/apps. Of course the more I use it, the shorter the battery life.

The Apple Watch would be a day 1 purchase for me *if* the battery life is extended and not merely througha low power mode.

Other than that I’d be on board.

Why though? The Apple Watch battery life on series 6 without always on display (AOD) turned on is about 48 hours from 100% to 0%.

That’s easily all day and night battery life with a charge every day or two.

Take my money.

Perfectly accurate, actually. Especially when you factor in turning off wifi/cellular when unnecessary (which for me is pretty much always), using only the good-old, reliable bluetooth connection from watch to phone.

sounds absolutely terrible. 47mm? already for a large chunk of people the 45mm is too large. guess the days of being able to purchase a reasonably sized titanium apple watch will be over. 47mm is hilariously large even by modern watch standards

You mean hilariously small at 47mm? Wish for 49mm or 51mm size.

I wear a Garmin now. They are 47mm and then some (and it’s not too big - especially if you want to capture some of the Garmin users and have a shot at extra battery life).

If you look at the 45’s now, it probably won’t be much larger on the wrist. 2mm can easily be gained by flattening the display and edges, without changing the overall footprint, while also gaining a small battery increase.

My question is that when I got the iW7 45 I went through a few bands before I was able to keep consistent contact with the back of the watch. I am 5'11' with ordinary wrists.
Will there be a way to see the back of a 47 if in fact it is announced in two weeks?

You also don't need redesign so you don't have to get Pro at all. Its actually very simple, don't make it complicated.

Kind of annoying that you have to get anything „Pro“ with Apple now, just to get the redesign, even if u won’t necessarily have the need for half those features

ehh, i purposely got the s7 two weeks ago because it was 60 bucks off at costco... not a bad deal and i wont feel guilty since it does the same thing the s8 will being doing most likely.. it dropped even lower by 100 bucks this week so costco will refund me the difference... not bad, 320 bucks for the s7 45mm

I was never a “watch guy”… but I got the series 6 Apple Watch to monitor my bike rides & health stats a year ago and love it. Not only does it keep track of vital health info, but I find I take my iphone out of my pocket less & less.

 

[kerr]

Small wrist gang, maybe next year for us. Lol. 47mm would be too big for my wrist.

I hear there might be smaller Apple Watch sizes

 

[Devin Breeding]

I honestly think the rumors were all correct and spot on and we are just 1 year ahead when it comes to the rumors. Apple is already working on iPhone 15. I also believe we may see a bronze or matte black iPhone this year instead of the purple.

Every rumor out last go around was edge to edge flat display with flat sides.

 

[Mrkevinfinnerty]

47mm

 

[joefrank64k]

Can’t wait.

I’ll take the S8 Rugged Pro in iridescent Ti please, haha!!

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year, haha!!

As a 6"2 athlete dude, all the watches are still too small. This 47mm might be the first one that looks right one me lol

Exactly! That is what we are bound to see come Sept. 7th..

 

[calstanford]

The watch no one has asked for.

 

[Rafterman]

Wooo! We're finally getting a flat re-design Apple Watch. Last year was a bit of a disappointment. Hopefully, Apple is able to shock the world with AW 8. ⌚️👏

Slow down there. "Rumored."

Nope I have been asking for this for 2 years!!

 

[alexandr]

I want a foldable watch that will be compatible with Apple's pencil. Apple Watch Pro Max Fold.

 

[alexandr]

Nope I have been asking for this for 2 years!!

The watch Neil Harrison asked for!

 

[alexandr]

I wonder if this will be too big for my wrists and mean that I can’t actually get it

You can always wear it on your ankle.

 

[Neil Harrison]

The watch Neil Harrison asked for!

Exactly

 

[alexandr]

Exactly

If I end up getting one, I promise to name it after you!

Please do…why not get it engraved with NH

Oh, this will be too expensive WELL before it’s too large. And one of the top selling sports watches right now is 51mm. So, by modern watch standards, two mm larger than the current 45mm watch won’t be noticed by those for whom this watch is for.
