We're just a few days away from when Apple is expected to announce the Apple Watch "Pro," an entirely new Apple Watch explicitly designed for athletes and customers who want a more robust and durable Apple Watch.
The Apple Watch "Pro" has been described as a "rugged" Apple Watch that will feature a new design, a larger display and battery, and more durable materials to make it more suitable for athletes and those who are active. Those improvements won't come without an additional cost, however, with the new model priced above most versions in the current lineup.
The new Apple Watch will likely sit at the higher end of the Apple Watch lineup, likely replacing the Apple Watch Edition as the more expensive model in the lineup. To make things easier, we've put together a quick comparison chart comparing the Apple Watch Edition and the Apple Watch "Pro" below.
Apple Watch Series 7 Edition
Case Material: Titanium
Case Design: Rounded edges and curved display around the sides
Sizes: 41mm or 45mm
Display Material: Sapphire front crystals
Health Features: ECG, Blood Oxygen, Heart Rate notifications
Special Features: None
Price: $799 - $849
Apple Watch 'Pro'
Case Material: Stronger titanium alloy with improved impact resistance
Case Design: "An evolution of the current rectangular shape," according to Bloomberg'sMark Gurman
Knowing what you know now, we want to know how much you would be willing to pay for an Apple Watch "Pro." Let us know in the comments below, and check out our guide for everything we know about the upcoming Apple Watch lineup.
Depends. Am I getting a watch that runs the same old software that is more “durable?” Or am I getting an actual Pro watch that separates itself from the regular watch?
