Next Apple Watches Won't Look Different but Will Get Faster Internally

Apple's next Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 are in late-stage testing, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports. The 2026 models skip a major redesign, focusing on health and fitness improvements and likely faster internal chips — ending a three-year streak of reused processors from 2023. A bigger redesign is expected in 2027 or 2028.
