Will There Be a Ceramic Apple Watch Series 10?

While the Apple Watch has not been available in ceramic since the Series 5 lineup was discontinued in 2020, there has been speculation on social media about the material potentially making a comeback this year.

Earlier this week, an anonymous leaker on X known as @MajinBuOfficial claimed that the upcoming Apple Watch Series 10 may be available in a ceramic version. However, the leaker has a mixed track record with Apple rumors.

There has also been speculation in the MacRumors Forums about a ceramic Apple Watch Series 10 based on a leaked CAD image.

No credible sources have mentioned that a ceramic Apple Watch will be making a return this year, so some skepticism is warranted.

The white ceramic version of the Apple Watch Series 5 started at $1,299 in the U.S. back in 2019, with Apple describing the material as "highly scratch-resistant and beautiful" in a press release at the time. There was also a white ceramic Apple Watch Series 2, along with white and gray ceramic options for the Apple Watch Series 3.

Apple is holding a special event on Monday, September 9, and new Apple Watches are expected to be unveiled alongside the iPhone 16 series.
