Apple has started to discount some of its Apple Watch bands for employees, but it is unclear if it is to prepare for changes with the next Apple Watch models.
Get used to seeing magnetic accessories
MagSafe is surely now the most well-known of Apple s use of magnets, but it isn t the only one and it appears it s going to be joined by many more. Just as the Apple Watch Milanese loop depends on a magnet to fasten, so Apple has investigated magnetic clasps for cases, and other bands. Attachment Apparatuses and Associated Methods of Use and Manufacture, is a newly-revealed patent application which actually builds on a previous patent that was granted back in 2015. They are both concerned with ways of incorporating magnets into various materials, and how those can then secure devices.
Apple s interest in magnets is not confined to MagSafe. Instead, we re likely to see more magnetic clasps in the Apple Watch, or in cases for any Apple devices.
