2026 Apple Watch preview: 7 things I expect (and hope) to see next year

Macworld

All things considered, 2025 was a good year for the Apple Watch: we got three new models, and I gave two of them strongly positive reviews. (I haven’t tried the Ultra 3 yet, but it’s probably decent too, if a little bulky for my suburban tastes.) It just wasn’t an exciting year.

The Series 11, as excellent as it is, features very few changes from last year’s Series 10. And while the Apple Watch SE 3 offers a plethora of valuable upgrades, they’re new to the SE rather than to the whole line.
