The next Apple Watch flagship could prove disappointing in one way, a new report claims.

So, my guess is that S8 will be more than up to the tasks Apple requires. Otherwise, there would be a new chip, for certain. In other words, why would Apple add to the cost of the Watch by creating a more powerful chip when the current one, or something like it, is more than up to the job. Don’t panic, then.

As demands on the Watch have grown, Apple has kept the battery life constant. Would an all-new processor allow Apple to expand the battery duration? My guess is that Apple felt the upgraded S6 chip was so strong that something similar would be more than enough for S7 and S8, so it could be that S9 is when we’ll see a step-change in performance.

Although I find this surprising, given the lower price of the SE is partly accomplished by using an older processor, if S6, S7 and S8 are really so similar, then why not put the latest one into the SE? After all, it’s the technique Apple has used with SE iPhones, putting the latest chip in its more affordable iPhones.
