The Series 6, he says, will come with the new S6 chip and offer a performance jump from the current generation’s S5.

In addition, Kuo believes the new Apple Watch will offer improved water resistance with longer depth submersion which would make it scuba-diving friendly. Previous rumors also speculated that Apple’s upcoming wearable will feature a MicroLED display and sleep tracking.

We’re still a long way away from the next-gen Apple Watch as its announcement is believed to come in the second half of 2020.
