If last year the Apple Watch Series 10 tried to celebrate its tenth anniversary with a design overhaul that was so subtle that many people didn't even notice it, this year the expectations are a bit higher. Especially since Apple's watches have been losing market share for two years in a row (yes, even Xiaomi now has a smartwatch for half a snack). So it's no surprise that the tech public is full of expectations to see if the Apple Watch Series 11 will finally bring something more than just "another year, another chip". Below we summarize the most interesting rumors - from the release date to 5G connectivity and (non-invasive) blood pressure measurement. No, there will still be no camera - but hey, who really wants to take pictures from their wrist?
