Individuals involved in developing new Apple Watch models told Gurman that the existing band system takes up a large amount of space that could be better utilized for bigger batteries or other internal components. As such, Apple is apparently considering a magnetic band attachment system, but it is currently unclear if this specific method will be present on the Apple Watch X or if the company will choose something else.
Imagine if the same complaints were leveled at people every time Samsung put out a new watch, phone, or tablet. Some of these are just cell radio variations, but come on.
But Apple bad. [My favorite tech company] would never do such a thing!
Like I do have a huge watch band collection and would be kinda miffed if I had to replace every band but the connector hasn’t changed for a decade. As long as the new connector can replace the metal ones on leather bands then I’ll just buy a box of those. It’s like when I retrofitted some of my other watch bands for the first Apple watch
Whoa
