In a confirmation of the previous rumors related to Apple’s much-anticipated new Apple Watch version, Apple Watch 2, a Bloomberg report has revealed that Apple will likely announce new Apple Watch models this fall.

The report has also revealed that the Apple Watch 2 smartwatch will come with improved health tracking and built-in GPS chips.

However, as per the report, the Apple Watch 2 version will apparently not feature cellular connectivity, which would have made the smartwatch less dependent on the iPhone. Though Apple was widely rumored to be considering the cellular connectivity option for Apple Watch 2, the Bloomberg report said that the company has probably not been able to compensate for the extra battery life which is consumed by a cellular connection.

The report has noted that Apple was in talks with carriers to bring cellular connectivity to Apple Watch 2, but issues over battery life were partly responsible for the company’s decision to save the feature for a future model of Apple Watch.

In reporting that the forthcoming Apple Watch 2 smartwatch will not include cellular connectivity, Bloomberg said in its report that Apple evidently “hit roadblocks in making major changes that would connect its Watch to cellular networks and make it less dependent on the iPhone.”
