Apple is widely expected to announce the new Watch Series 8, along with the iPhone 14, at a product launch event called Far Out on September 7. While we have yet to see the Watch Series 8 itself, there have been plenty of rumors to keep us informed, and now we have a pretty good idea of what color options will be available for the new wearable. This information comes from the Twitter account of an Apple hacker named ShrimpAppleProalong with Apple’s news and gossip site MacRumors. Such leaks tend to be pretty accurate, especially since the expected unveiling of the new watch is now just a few weeks away. First, it is claimed that the number of color options for the aluminum Watch Series 8 will be reduced compared to the old Series 7. The Midnight and Starlight color options will remain, it is claimed, and the same with a product (Red ) version. But the blue and green options will disappear, to be replaced by a restored silver color. These changes suggest that the blue and green options haven’t been as popular as Apple had hoped, while the return to silver, the original color of the Apple Watch, is a sign that customers prefer a more neutral look for their smartwatch. Stepping up to the more expensive stainless steel Apple Watch Series 8, and it’s claimed that the current color options of gold, silver and graphite will remain unchanged for the new model. Finally, the rumored “Apple Watch Series 8 Pro” – which we think should be called the Patagonia Edition – is expected to have a tougher titanium case, along with a slightly larger flat-screen display and a bigger battery. While we’ve seen plenty of rumors about this watch, nothing has been said so far about what the color options will be. Apple’s current Titanium Watch Edition is available in black and natural titanium. We’re not expecting anything too outlandish here, and we suspect Apple will either stick with these colorways or offer something similarly traditional for what’s expected to be its most expensive watch (the Hermès version notwithstanding). All is expected to be revealed at Apple’s next media event, which will be streamed online on September 7.
