Apple Watch Series 6 Listed as Keyword in Apple's YouTube Event Video

[MacRumors]

Apple this morning announced an upcoming September 15 event, and shared a YouTube placeholder video for the livestream that will be available on that date.

Metadata for the YouTube video includes several keywords as noted by Guilherme Rambo, and one notable inclusion is a mention of the "Series 6," which is an Apple Watch that does not yet exist.

Bloomberg earlier today said that the September 15 event will not be focused on the iPhone as most September events are, with Apple instead planning to unveil new Apple Watch and iPad models. A separate event for the iPhone 12 is expected later in the fall, likely in October.

The specific mention of the Series 6 Apple Watch lends credibility to Bloomberg's claim, and seemingly confirms we can expect to see new Apple Watch models.

The metadata has a whole list of other keywords for existing products, including Apple, iOS, iPhone, Mac, Apple Watch, Series 5, Series 6, iPad, iPad Air, MacBook, iMac, MacBook Pro, Fitness, Wellness, Illustration, Apple TV, Digital Art, AirPods, Apple Event, Apple Keynote, WWDC, September, Apple Special Event, and Apple Launch.

Apple is clearly trying to hit important keywords to attract those searching for related terms, but aside from the Series 6 mention, these are all existing products and it's difficult to determine what else we might see at the event.

It’s interesting to see but with a new watch expected at this time of year, and that it’s a keyword trending for the past couple of months, I can only see this as a standard/normal tag they utilize to achieve better coverage.......

 

[AppleTO]

Hmm... no Apple Silicon.

 

[jent]

Does anyone think this means new Apple TV and Mac models as well, given the included keywords, or is Apple just trying to get anyone searching for Apple products to learn about the video/event?

 

[LiE_]

iMac you say?

Pls Timmy, give us some ASi Macs!

So iPhone is included???

2 hours for Apple watch and iPad Air is not enough time. What are they going to do take one hour to announce each product, LOL.

Apple is the best when it comes to keeping a SECRET. No one seems to know the exact truth.

 

[now i see it]

Yes Apple Watch was tagged ... along with every other apple product made.

Not compelling evidence

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

there you have it folks! No iPhone! October can’t come soon enough ugh!!

'Apple Watch Series 6' on Apple event YouTube stream keywords, 'iPhone 12' missing | AppleInsider

A list of keywords associated with Apple's YouTube stream for its September 15 event suggests it won't involve the launch of a new iPhone at all, but does seemingly confirm the arrival of new products including the "Apple Watch Series 6."

It says Macbook and that's not a current product.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Lol. It lists basically all their products.

 

[Lounge vibes 05]

So iPhone is included???

Just iPhone, not iPhone 12, or 12Pro, or New-iPhone, or iPhone2020, or anything of the like.
Series6 and iPadAir are both specifically in the tags

 

[Smici]

Digital art, illustration but not pencil? 🤔

 

[olebom]

No AirTags... But hopefully, that will still come next week.

 

[rmoliv]

Just tell me Watch will be available for purchasing the same day as the keynote. Don’t want to wait until Friday and then another whole week!!!

 

[M-Life]

Lol. It lists basically all their products.

Yes but "series 6" is not actually a product yet. The others items are to catch people searching for apple products.

For example if new iPhones were expected to be announced, it would probably say "iPhone 12" instead of iPhone.

 

[Dwalls90]

WWDC is also tagged, which already happened. So iPhone being tagged doesn't mean there will anything iPhone related.

At this point, I don't think "Series 6" is a surprise to anyone, so nothing new here IMO.

 

[AppleTO]

No AirTags... But hopefully, that will still come next week.

I doubt they would add the name of an unreleased product...

Seriously tired of waiting this year. 2020 is not the best year. Running very low on patience.

 

[Bazooka-joe]

I am curious to see if the Series 6 watch will offer anything aside from additional heath monitoring and a faster processor will offer as the series 5 was a minor update to the Series 4

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

They're going to reference WWDC into the event maybe??? that's why its there as a reference.

 

[Ubuntu]

Did you see the Series 6 part?

 

[Spock]

Hmm... no Apple Silicon.

It tags several Mac models, including the MacBook that is not a current product. This information provides no evidence that a new Apple Silicon device will or will not be released

 

[JM]

Confirmed! Apple Watch 5! 😍

 

[Zackmd1]

What is interesting to me is that it lists all three Mac products that we expect to be getting apple silicon first. That includes the MacBook that is currently discontinued. Seems kinda odd to add that keyword specifically.

Could be that this is an "Apple Silicon" event focusing on the watch, iPad air, MacBook, MacBook Pro 13", and 24" iMac. That would certainly fill a 2hr timeslot. Then October would be left solely for the iPhones.
