Another interesting announcement made by Apple with regards to the Apple Watch is its new “Solo Loop” watch strap. This new watch band design features a strap designed from a single piece of silicone; this means it doesn’t come with any buckles/adjustment mechanisms. Apples says the “Solo Loop” strap will come in many different sizes to fit everyone’s wrist size.

A rather surprising announcement made by Apple is the Watch SE. Interestingly, when it comes to design, the Apple Watch SE looks rather similar to the older Apple Watch Series 4. Of course, being an ‘SE variant’ means that this smartwatch does lose out on some features found on the newer and more premium Series 6. For instance, the Watch SE does not come with an always-on display, ECG functionality and the newly introduced blood oxygen monitor feature.
