Ceramic fiber material body, Touch ID fingerprint unlocking … Apple’s next generation Apple Watch prediction

As March 2020 is coming to an end, more and more fruit powders have begun to speculate about Apple's next batch of new products. I believe that the fruit fans who have been known to have been infinitely beautiful to this day should all know that now the development of technology is like a white horse. In addition to mobile phones, there are many different technological products, such as tablets, VR glasses, smart bracelets, smart watches and so on. Many people used to think that the biggest function of the watch was to watch the time. Later, you can also watch the date. Slowly, you have a smart watch. In addition to being able to see the time, you can also send text messages and even answer the phone. It is also special. The magic of Apple ’s previously introduced smart watches caused a craze for smart watches. However, there are a lot of Apple watch models, which have been released to Apple Watch Series 5.

So, what do you expect from Apple's next-generation apple watch? Today, you may wish to follow Mingmei Infinite Sharing to take a look!

According to foreign media reports, there are reports that Apple may add support for Touch ID fingerprint unlocking in the future Apple Watch. One of the schemes is to use the under-screen fingerprint method, but it is not clear whether the relevant scheme will be ready this year, and the report says that the relevant functions may appear in Apple Watch Series 7 (2021).

It is also reported that Apple may plan to launch Apple Watch made of ceramic fiber material. The media said that the body material of the Apple Watch that was released on the market was basically made of aluminum alloy, stainless steel, ceramics and precious metals. The first few materials are not bad. The production cost is low but it is not durable enough. Although the ceramic and precious metal versions of Apple Watch are hard in texture, they are expensive to produce and are not easy to sell to more consumers.

According to the information from these two media and the prospect of installing Touch ID on the Apple Watch 7 series, Apple currently considers two ways. One is to install a fingerprint sensor on the Digital Crown, and the other is to embed the fingerprint sensor at the bottom of the screen.

In fact, Apple has applied for patents for these two methods. In November last year, a patent application for the technology of embedding a fingerprint authentication sensor under the screen of the Apple Watch was released. In February this year, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) issued a patent application for the technology of integrating a fingerprint authentication sensor in the digital crown.

It is understood that the current Apple Watch has two ways to unlock. When used alone, the user needs to enter the PIN code on the watch screen to unlock; when the Apple Watch is paired with the iPhone, the phone can be unlocked to unlock the watch. If Apple wants to add Touch ID function to the new Apple Watch, it will undoubtedly bring a more convenient and fast unlocking experience.

The report also stated that in WatchOS 7 planned to be released in June this year, the Siri function will be improved and the recognition will be more rapid and sensitive, while the old Apple Watch Series 2 released in 2016 will miss WatchOS 7.

In addition, there is news that the watchOS 7 system to be launched in WWDC 2020 may have a major upgrade, mainly reflected in the enhancement of the functions of the Siri smart assistant. This year's Apple Watch products will also make some improvements in hardware, such as increased battery capacity and support for WiFi 6. The data shows that AppleWatch shipped 30.7 million pieces last year, and the total sales of all Swiss watch brands were 21.1 million pieces. It is not difficult to see that the popularity of AppleWatch is also quite high, and sales have long exceeded traditional smart watches. It is not difficult to see that Apple has great expectations for this product.

Finally, foreign media expects that Apple will officially release watchOS 7 at the WWDC 2020 conference in June. WWDC 2020 is expected to be held online, but Apple has not yet determined the exact date of the conference, and the next generation of Apple Watch is expected to be launched in the fall.
