Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 Expected with Performance Upgrades, No Major RedesignPreviousNext

Apple's 2026 Apple Watch lineup, including the Series 12 and Ultra 4 models, is expected to focus on performance and health tracking improvements without major design changes. Both models are in late-stage testing and likely to launch in September 2026. The Watch SE 4 may not be released this year, following a recent SE refresh. While internal upgrades like a new processor and enhanced fitness features are anticipated, significant design overhauls and new sensors are expected in future generations.
