Apple enthusiast Mark Gurman, a well-known Bloomberg columnist, has dropped a bombshell regarding the upcoming Apple ‘Glowtime’ event, scheduled for Monday, September 12th. While the event is expected to be a showcase for new gadgets, including the highly anticipated iPhone 16 series, Apple Watch Series 10, and the Apple Watch SE, Gurman predicts that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 won’t be part of the lineup.
Instead of unveiling a new Ultra model, Gurman expects Apple to keep the Ultra 2 on the market, but with a fresh black color option. He also suggests that the release of the new Apple Watch SE might be delayed.
This news comes as a surprise, considering the hype surrounding the ‘Glowtime’ event. Rumors and leaks had suggested that the Watch Series 10 would feature a sleeker design with larger 45mm and 49mm displays, the Ultra 3 would retain its rugged look but gain a new processor, and the new Watch SE could introduce a more affordable plastic casing and larger screens.
While Apple hasn’t officially commented on Gurman’s predictions, his track record of accurate insights makes his statements noteworthy. It’s worth noting that tech expert Gene Munster believes the iPhone 16 launch might not significantly boost Apple’s shares, as the anticipation is already factored into the stock price.
Gurman has previously cautioned against overhyping the iPhone 16’s AI features, stating that users might have to wait for the best AI advancements.
With the ‘Glowtime’ event just around the corner, all eyes are on Apple to see if Gurman’s predictions come true. Stay tuned for the latest updates.
