Apple’s smartwatch has maintained the same design for the past couple of years. For those that don’t know, it is available in 38 and 42mm variants, but this year, Apple could be planning something different. The new wearable, which is expected to be called the Apple Watch Series 4 is going to feature a 15 percent larger display.
This could mean that Apple will be increasing the size of its wearables, and this will translate into featuring better benefits. For one thing, we could be seeing thinner bezels on the smartwatch, reducing the overall footprint but increasing the screen real estate.

Additionally, a bigger display can also mean that the Apple Watch Series 4 will be seeing a bigger battery capacity. Perhaps the improvements in the upcoming watchOS 5 will mean that users will be able to expect battery life that extends for more than 24 hours. Furthermore, Apple could also mean launching an LTE variant of these smartwatches and will come with faster and more reliable connectivity than ever before.
It is possible that the newest iteration of the Apple Watch series will be showcased during the iPhone keynote that will take place during September.
