Amid rumors that the Apple Watch Series 7 could go on sale in just a matter of weeks, new images shared with MacRumors allegedly show the new Apple...

That screen looks amazing!!

The AR model of the S7 on Apple’s website clearly doesn’t match the real design. Seems a little shady to me.

Perhaps some faces don’t use all the screen and need a border ? (I genuinely don’t know)

The top image is taken closer to the watch face, which minimizes the border of the curved screen face. Look at the difference in perspective of the band and crown between the two pictures.

Next week would be great! I still don’t know if I‘ll get the green or midnight. Will the Nike edition only come in midnight and starlight?

Correct. I have decided to get the Nike midnight 45mm but haven't decided which sport loop to get... Cargo Khaki or Black, I am leaning towards the black.

I wish the Watch Studio is available for the Series 7 now...

How does the Watch Studio work? Do they have watches boxed up without bands and then ship the band you choose separate?

From S4 or S5, the band has no longer been in the same box as the watch case. They’re packaged separately and wrapped in another box.
Having said that, standard configurations will almost guarantee that you get it on launch day or before random combinations from Watch studio.

Pretty much. If you search for Unboxing videos you’ll see how the watch and band are packaged separately.

Speaking of, here are the default configurations for the SS models. For aluminum, the default is with a sport band of the matching color.

Were you able to find the Titanium version?

Were you able to find the Titanium version?

Unfortunately no, no titanium models listed on Amazon.

Happy Apple Watch Pre-order week (well… we think!)

looking forward to Friday!

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

One more day to go! Hoping for the press invites for Apple Watch Pre-order date to go out on Tuesday, October 5th, 2021. Fingers crossed!!!

I'm thinking October 15th is too soon.

Just three weeks between iPhone 13 launch and an Apple Watch Series 7 launch seems too short for there not to be a date set from the first announcement.

Why?

Well:

For them not to put a date on it usually means there is uncertainty on their end around manufacturing, yields, etc., as opposed to them just being coy. This is especially the case here since the watch is on such a regular update cycle now. This delay is definitely the result of something going wrong.

The first gen iPad Pro, iPhone X, and iPhone 12 mini and Pro Max had 'long' (in Apple terms) periods between announcement and launch - but had a fixed launch date (or at least month) from the get go.

Other products with no fixed date had a long time until they arrived, e.g. original AirPods. Not three weeks.

Finally, when Apple gives a seasonal time window, they normally hit the end of that window, e.g. original Apple Watch ('early 2015'; shipped May), 2013 Mac Pro ('late 2013'; shipped December), 2019 Mac Pro ('late 2019'; shipped December).

Will happily eat my words though.

I now know how Jon Prosser feels.

BOOM!!!

 

[D1G1TALR0B0T]

Looks like pre-order on Friday and available on Friday October 15th (story on front page now).

 

[andyw715]

Will ordering a custom config on pre-order day delay my order at all? I know Apple makes standard configs like what they sell on Amazon and in their stores, but Apple.con has the “create your style” feature that allows you to mix and match bands. Should I just order as standard to get it as soon as possible?

The answer is, "it depends". Depends on case material/size/connectivity, also depends on the band. This is very similar to the iPhone. Some configs are more popular which could mean they reserve faster.

Still not sure whether to upgrade my Apple Watch Series 4.. My battery health is at 86%.

Dang! My series 6 (launch day) watch is down to 84%

My 5 is down to 80% it’s been an expensive month already but this thing is driving me nuts barely lasting the day. Question is if I went up to the bigger size will my 38mm bands (and 40) still fit?

 

[belindaquek]

super stoked!!

 

[MrGunny94]

Might order from Amazon.es this time around.

The bands are only cross-compatible with the same relevant size.

So 38 and 40mm bands will work on the new 41mm size but if you change to 45mm you will need bands from the 42, 44, 45mm sizes.

Seriously... they're saying the S7 starts at $399, which was the same price as the S6. However, I'm concerned there is no specific pricing per model announced. Curious what the titanium 45mm will go for.
