We have previously heard about that Apple has encountered problems in the production of the new Apple Watch Series 7 smartwatch. Mark Gurman of Bloomberg shared his findings on this.

When to expect?

According to his information Apple will still unveil the new watch in time for the September iPhone 13 launch. But they will likely go on sale in limited quantities at first.

"My colleague Debbie Wu and I  report that watches are having production problems. When this happens with a new product, there are usually three ways: the announcement is delayed until the problems are fixed, the product is launched in time in small quantities, or the device is announced in time, but will go on sale later. My guess is that we will see a launch during the usual September event along with the iPhone, but the watch will ship late or in small quantities. This should be familiar to those who witnessed the launch of the original Apple Watch in 2015", - says Mark Gurman in the latest edition of his Power On newsletter.

No new Apple Watch Series 7 sensors are expected to receive, and instead the manufacturer will focus on design. The new models will have larger dimensions (41 and 45 mm) and flat edges in the style of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13. They also are credited with new dials and larger battery.
