Apple will hold a new product launch event with the theme “Time Flies” today. According to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman tweet, he expects new product launches, especially new models of Apple Watch. Gurman has stated that his general expectation for Tuesday’s event is to focus on the new Apple Watch Series 6 and iPad Air. As for the Apple Watch, Gurman has lowered his expectations for the Apple Watch Series 6. He said that apart from blood oxygen monitoring and a faster processor, there are no major updates.
In addition, Gurman personally believes that Apple will also launch a new low-end Apple Watch model. This model will be called “Apple Watch SE”. Recall that @evleaks had the same prediction before breaking the news.
