Apple Watch 2 Release!

We rounded up everything we know so far about Apple's second-generation smartwatch, the so-called Apple Watch 2, including when it will be released, how much it will cost and what new functionality you can expect.

We’re just a few months from the Apple Watch 2, and new rumours are starting to emerge about the screen technology used in Apple’s next wearable.

The Apple Watch’s OLED screen is clear, vibrant and one of the best things about the original smartwatch, but new reports suggest Apple is about to ditch it for a Micro LED display.

According to Digitimes , the new displays will be sourced from a newly Apple-owned company LuxVue technology, and should be ready to ship by the second half of 2017.

And the reason for the swap? According to those close to Apple, the move comes down to battery life.

Although the screens are more expensive to make at the moment, Micro LEDs tend to have a longer battery life than OLED screens – and they're thinner, too
