For almost a decade, Apple has released an Apple Watch every fall. Each release is greeted like the turning of the leaves: welcome, but not necessarily mind-blowing. In 2022, the rugged Apple Watch Ultra (8/10, WIRED Recommends) was one of the biggest launches we'd seen in years. The Series 8 (8/10, WIRED Recommends), which also debuted last year, introduced skin temperature sensing--nice, but we've seen similar features on wearables like the Oura ring for years. For its tenth anniversary--in either 2024 or 2025--Apple is rumored to be giving its watch a complete revamp, and maybe even a new name (the catchy Apple Watch X).
