Overview

• Display analyst Ross Young reports that production has started on 1.6-inch and 1.8-inch displays for the rumored Apple Watch SE 3.
• The new display sizes are slightly larger than the current SE 2's 40mm and 44mm options, aligning closely with Series 9's 41mm and 45mm cases.
• The SE 3 is expected to launch in September, alongside the Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3, based on typical production timelines.
• Speculation persists about a potential hard plastic casing in vibrant colors, but no confirmation has been made regarding materials or design.
• Apple continues to position the SE series as a cost-effective, youth-oriented smartwatch, with the possibility of a smaller form factor to better suit children’s wrists.
