Apple Watch chipsets went through years of modest, iterative improvements, according to the source. That left the smartwatches needing other major selling points to make an upgrade worthwhile.
The cycle changed this year with the S11, used in Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4. The source attributes the change to the A20 Pro in the latest iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo.
The S11 is derived from the A20 Pro and includes specification upgrades such as memory improvements. These changes are intended to improve on-device AI performance, although the source does not provide detailed specifications or performance figures.
The shift gives Apple Watch chipsets a stronger foundation for this year's models after a period of incremental development. The source does not identify every change in the S11 or explain how much faster it is than earlier chipsets.
