Vratislav Holub The traditional September keynote is practically behind the door, and we are only a few weeks away from the presentation of this year's most anticipated apple products. The new generation of iPhone 13 will be the first to be presented, alongside which the Apple Watch Series 7 will also be revealed. It is these that should come with an interesting change on the design side this year, which is currently more than needed. The design of the watch has not changed at all since the Series 4. And as it looks, we already know relatively exactly what the new "watches" could look like.
Only a few weeks ago, CAD images of the expected Apple Watch Series 7 leaked online, showing an interesting design change. At first glance, it is obvious what Apple is about in this case. They are probably trying to harmonize the design of all their products, as the new watch resembles the iPhone 12 or iPad Air in terms of appearance. Of course, this refers to a generally more angular design and a departure from the rounded edges that are typical for "watches" to date. The existence of these CAD images was almost immediately exploited by Chinese companies and brought to the market "perfect" copies of the Apple Watch. Although at first glance they look cheap, in fact these news give us an interesting look at the possible design of the Apple Watch Series 7. In addition, these clones should be sold for only 60 dollars, i.e. less than 1 crowns.

Adam Kos Moreover, this is not an unusual situation. The design of apple products is, with a little exaggeration, unique, and it is therefore not surprising that Chinese companies try to imitate it. It was exactly the same with Apple AirPods, for example. The design of these headphones and their charging case has inspired manufacturers all over the world. But let's get back to the expected watch. Images of these hilarious clones were shared by a Twitter user going by the name Majin Bu. He showed several of the mentioned clones in different color variants, which also goes hand in hand with the original speculations and leaks. Apple Watch Series 7 should come in the same color design as, for example, AirPods Max or the already mentioned iPad Air. It should be noted, however, that in this direction the copies go their own way and you will not find the same colors.

Majin Bu subsequently adds that the watch clones are available in two variants, i.e. aluminum and stainless steel. However, their appearance can scare some people, because it is clear that if the Apple Watch Series 7 really looked like this, they would probably not have twice as much success. This is relatively easy to explain. These at first glance credible copies were developed and produced in an extremely short time frame, due to which the quality of their processing was not taken into account. For example, the placement of the display looks rather clumsy and looks as if the glass is just sitting on the watch case, while in the case of the current Apple Watch it is perfectly embedded in their body. The digital crown is not the best either.

Of course, design is a subjective topic and you can't always please everyone. But if we look at these apple watch clones from a distance and slightly squint both eyes, we have to admit that their appearance is pretty good. Above all, this is again a change that is simply needed after years and can thus refresh the entire product series. What do you think about this design? Is this the right move, or should Apple have stuck with a rounded body?
