Apple’s processor designs have become more advanced and powerful while using roughly the same amount of energy. Therefore, it’s possible that Apple is able to achieve the same performance as the S8 from the S9 using less energy. The Series 9 is rumoured to be another minor update over the Series 8. However, Gurman suggests that the Apple Watch X might be where the action is. Apple has been under-selling the battery life of the best Apple Watches for years, and even though the real results still don’t match the best Garmin watches when it comes to lasting days and even weeks, it is still considered to be a quiet leap forward that Apple does not brag too hard about.
