For years, Apple has been launching new Apple Watches in September and that has always been their track record. Even with all of the disruption that the coronavirus pandemic has caused this year, there is still a massive chance that Apple will push through with the September 2021 release.

As for the cost, there is no news about it yet but Apple is also known for being consistent with the price. The Apple Watch 6 is sold at $399 or £379.

While there has been some fluctuation in pricing across the last few models, they are all in the same ballpark, so the Apple Watch 7 could cost around the same price too.

Apple Watch 7 leaks

As for the leaks, there aren't much yet but there are rumors and speculations posted by Apple enthusiasts and analysts. Even Apple CEO Tim Cook said during an appearance on the Outside podcast that there are a lot of innovation that is left to go in the watch and they are in the early innings.

While Cook's description of the Apple Watch 7 is very vague, him talking about the sensors in the body suggests that they plan to focus on health and fitness features.

The statement from Cook is in line with claims from Ming-Chi Kuo, who predicted that the new Apple Watch shipment's momentum in 2021 will "benefit from innovative health management functions and improved form factor design", according to MacRumors. .

From that statement, it seems like the Apple Watch 7 might have both new health features and a new design. It is possible that the massive design change will happen, as Kuo also stated that there would be a significant form factor design change to the smartwatch.

Even though he said that this would arrive on Apple Watch models in late 2021, it is possible that we won't see any design change until a later model.

The strap of the Apple Watch 7 could also change as a patent details a strap with a battery within it, which can help increase the battery life of the watch. But ideas in patents are usually not used, so it is still possible it won't be added.

A Touch ID fingerprint scanner can be added to future Apple Watches. It seems that Apple is exploring ways of applying a matte black finish to the anodized metal of its watches and smartphones so Apple Watch 7 could be introduced in a different color.
