AppleWatch-2“The go-to supply chain source for this stuff—KGI analyst Ming-Chi Kuo—likens the ‘Apple Watch 2’ to the ‘S’ generation phones Apple releases between major, numbered, iPhone generations. These ‘S’ series devices have some spec upgrades, but usually no major new feature or design innovations,” Mark Sullivan writes for Fast Company. “Kuo, who is usually accurate, cites supply chain sources to say that the new Watch will be roughly the same shape and size as the first Apple Watch, but will add a faster chip, a barometer (to measure elevation climbed), a GPS radio (for tracking runs), and some kind of waterproofing rating.”

“Kuo expects the Watch 2 to show up late this year, presumably in time for the holiday season,” Sullivan writes. “The analyst adds that Apple will continue selling the first version of the Watch, but with a faster processor inside and no GPS radio. He says Apple will probably cut the price of the original Apple Watch by as much as $100, which would drive down the cost of the low-end Sports model to under $200.”
