Apple Watch 2 release date and specs rumors: Quanta reveals September launching of smartwatch?
The Apple Watch 2 has been getting a lot of attention lately following several reports regarding its development and release date. According to the latest buzz, the upcoming Apple tech watch is said to arrive with major upgrades such as the addition of a FaceTime camera and a built-in GPS technology.
If rumors prove to be true, it will be interesting to see how the watch would perform in the market against the competition. The additional features will certainly add a huge factor for consumers when they shop for a new tech watch.
During the recently concluded Worldwide Developers Conference or WWDC 2016, many fans expected the wearable device to get announced. However, the Cupertino-based company decided to skip the smartwatch that caused a minor disappointment from several Apple followers.
According to a report by DigiTimes, the continued silence of the company with regard to the device's release date does not necessarily mean that it will not come out anytime soon. There are speculations suggesting that the upcoming Apple Watch 2 will have a September 2016 launching, along with the company's latest iteration of its flagship smartphone, the iPhone 7.
The chairman of Quanta Computer Incorporated Barry Lam has supported the prediction, saying that it is highly likely for Apple to release it before the year ends.
The Taiwanese electronic company was the one that manufactured the original Apple Watch. It is reported that Quanta Computer Incorporated has already started the Apple Watch 2 project. However, these are merely just rumors and speculations. Fans should take these reports with a grain of salt until the Apple decides to provide an official statement announcing the highly anticipated device.
Meanwhile, previous reports suggested that the upcoming Apple Watch 2 will no longer be dependent on the iPhone smartphone. It has its cellular capability for sending and receiving text messages as well as making calls.
