According to a fresh leak, Apple Watch Ultra (2nd Gen) and Apple Watch Series 9, the company's expected smartwatch improvements for 2023, might launch in new colour combinations. The Cupertino company's next generation of smartwatches were previously rumoured to include a new CPU. The successors of the Apple Watch Ultra and Apple Watch Series 8 may come in a single new colorway for the Titanium chassis, as well as two new possibilities for the aluminium and stainless steel bodies.
According to tipster ShrimpApplePro (@VNchocoTaco) on X, the Apple Watch Series 9 might be released this year in five colour choices for the aluminium body - Midnight, Starlight, (Product) Red, Silver, and Pink. Meanwhile, the stainless steel alternative might come in Gold, Graphite, and Silver finishes. According to the leaker, there are no significant design changes when compared to the Apple Watch Series 8.

The document also backs up an earlier report that the Apple Watch Series 9 would be powered by a new processor. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the successor to the Apple Watch Series 8 will be powered by a new S9 processor, the company's first substantial improvement since the S6 chip.
The second-generation Apple Watch Ultra model, on the other hand, is supposed to be quite similar to its predecessor. Aside from the regular Titanium colour choice, the leaker believes there will be an extra Black colour version for the titanium chassis.

The informant also indicated about the release of a new iPad during the company's next launch event, maybe the iPad mini (7th Gen). However, the specifics of the alleged tablet are yet unknown. The iPhone maker has not declared a release date for the rumoured Apple Watch range 9 and Apple Watch Ultra (2nd Gen) or the impending iPhone 15 range of devices, although one might be made in the coming weeks.
