Apple Watch Series 7 may have run into manufacturing troubles, now the launch seems delayed

Apple is likely to announce an event in September for the iPhone 13 but the new Apple Watch may not arrive then.

Apple Watch Series 7 release may be delayed because some manufacturing problems have emerged at facilities, according to two separate reports. Apple’s upcoming Watch is said to come with a new design and that is what is likely to cause issues in manufacturing. Several rumours have pointed out that Apple Watch Series 7 will go for a flat look, in what looks like the iPhone maker’s attempt to harmonise the flat design across its products. The iPhone, iPad, and Macs are already available in flat looks, with Apple Watch being left the odd one. Bloomberg and Nikkei have separately reported that the small-scale production of the upcoming Apple Watch Series 7 did not turn out favourably. There were “critical challenges in reaching satisfactory production performance” in the manufacturing of the upcoming Apple Watch, according to Nikkei. Similarly, Bloomberg said that the manufacturing of the Apple Watch Series 7 on a small scale has birthed several issues, underscoring that it is the new design that is not feasible yet for mass production.
