Individuals involved in developing new Apple Watch models told Gurman that the existing band system takes up a large amount of space that could be better utilized for bigger batteries or other internal components. As such, Apple is apparently considering a magnetic band attachment system, but it is currently unclear if this specific method will be present on the Apple Watch X or if the company will choose something else.
I don’t see how a purely magnetic watch band attachment could work for a watch, but I guess we’ll see. Would definitely be a shame to loose band compatibility.
Buy the next product without needing it like a good apple fan
I’m sure you buy things too, don’t wave that angry finger at the people, wave it at capitalism.
Also, most hardware manufacturers release something every year. Samsung
fansusers do the same thing.Imagine if the same complaints were leveled at people every time Samsung put out a new watch, phone, or tablet. Some of these are just cell radio variations, but come on.
But Apple bad. [My favorite tech company] would never do such a thing!
Like I do have a huge watch band collection and would be kinda miffed if I had to replace every band but the connector hasn’t changed for a decade. As long as the new connector can replace the metal ones on leather bands then I’ll just buy a box of those. It’s like when I retrofitted some of my other watch bands for the first Apple watch
Whoa
I was speaking in a general sense, but I’m glad you figured it all out.
TBH my watch is the one device I sometimes wish it would just crap out just so I could justify to myself buying a recent model. But it keeps trucking so I hang on to it.
It’s an amazing piece of tech.
Too poor to afford Apple. Got it.
