A published report says Apple is likely to launch a computerized
wristwatch this fall that includes more than 10 sensors to take health
measurements and other data.
The Wall Street Journal also said Friday that Apple Inc. is planning
multiple screen sizes for the device, which some people have dubbed the
iWatch.
Samsung, Sony, Qualcomm and others have already released smartwatches,
but the gadgets have mostly functioned as companions to smartphones,
offering email notifications, clock functions and the like. Samsung's
Gear 2 line, released this year, added fitness-related apps and has a
heart rate sensor.
There's been longstanding speculation that Apple has been working on a
smartwatch. The main question has been when it would come out.
Apple didn't immediately return a message seeking comment.
