It had been reported earlier that the upcoming Watch from Apple Inc., will come with 3G facility so that users may use it for connectivity purposes. But according to latest news, the company won’t be adding the 3G feature till 2018 and it is also expected that the next generation of Apple Watch would be rolled out side by side with upcoming iPhone.
The new watch from Apple will, in place of the 3G connectivity, primarily focus on GPS tracking besides some more fitness features. Moreover, the Global Positioning System won’t need any connectivity feature to work.
According to a report, published by Bloomberg, the company had previously communicated with some carriers to provide the 3G connectivity feature to the new Apple watch. However, the report also added that by the introduction of 3G connectivity, the battery life of the watch gets decreased as the new feature drains a large amount of battery, making it less productive to the users. Meanwhile, the company is working on data chips so that the future watches may require lesser power to run.
As far as the external features of the Apple Watch 2 is concerned, we won’t see any big upgrades. However, on the other hand, the internal features would show some nice upgrades. For instance, a higher capacity battery is used alongside with a much faster processor.
Moreover, the Apple’s latest watchOS 3 would be used on the software side. On Apple’s official website, a published post says that the user’s favorite applications would start much quickly on the next generation Apple Watch with the new operating system. Further it is believed that the watchOS3 will be launched in the later part of this year.
The activity sharing facility will have a direct connectivity with the Messaging application of the watch, says the report. With this facility, the users woud be easily able to communicate with their family, friends and others. Also the new health app, the Breadth app, will provide information about the time and place of doing breathing exercises to the users. A heart rate summary would be shown to the user, once the exercise session ends.
So with such fancy tweaks besides the health and fitness related features, the customers will really enjoy their experience with the new watch.
