Apple Watch Series 10 set to feature larger screen and thinner design
In his latest industry note, renowned Apple analyst and leaker Ming-Chi Kuo predicts that the upcoming Apple Watch will see sizes grow from the current 41mm and 45mm to approximately 45mm and 49mm, all while sporting a slimmer profile.
Speaking of the Apple Watch Ultra, Kuo mentioned it will largely stay unchanged this year. However, there is potential for a new dark or black case color option, provided production meets expectations.
The specifications of the Apple Watch Ultra model will remain roughly the same. If production yields meet expectations, new case color options (black/dark) may be introduced.

The rumored slimmer chassis aligns with Bloomberg's Mark Gurman's reports, suggesting Apple's upcoming products —iPhone, Watch, and MacBook Pro models—are set to feature thinner designs, following the trend set by the iPad Pro M4 (2024).

Moreover, there have been persistent rumors surrounding a significant Apple Watch hardware overhaul. This includes talk of a new magnetic band attachment system aimed at slimming down the design.
As the Series 10 coincides with the 10th anniversary of the original Apple Watch announcement, there is speculation it might be branded as the Apple Watch X, following the tradition set by the iPhone.
