Apple is giving the finishing touches to the Apple Watch Series 8, and according to people familiar with the matter, the device is on track to be announced in September, as per the parent company’s typical schedule.

The next-generation Apple Watch Series 8 is expected to come with a design that is very similar to the one of the current models, so aesthetically, you’ll most likely have a hard time telling apart the two devices.

A new leak coming from ShrimpApplePro and revealed on Twitter also confirms that Apple will launch the Apple Watch Series 8 in two different sizes, namely 41mm and 45mm. Needless to say, this is the same approach that was used on the Series 7, and this once again suggests that the company isn’t planning any big changes in terms of design.

The aluminum version of the Apple Watch Series 8 will be available in four different colors, namely starlight, midnight, red, and silver. The stainless steel version, on the other hand, will be up for grabs in silver, graphite, and gold.

Apple won’t be launching a titanium version of the Apple Watch Series 8, as the company is giving up on this model in the favor of the all-new Pro. The upcoming Apple Watch Series 8 Pro will come with a titanium case, therefore offering enhanced durability, something that Apple will most likely aggressively promote as part of its launch event.

The Pro model will come with some exclusive goodies, including a larger screen that will get closer to 2 inches. This will provide more room to display additional health-related data, with Apple also planning to release new complications that would further enhance the capabilities of the Pro. However, the sensor configuration will be similar with the one also available on the other Apple Watch models.
