Last year, Apple showed off the Apple Watch Series 8 at its Far Out event alongside the iPhone 14 series.
There are now reports that the tech giant is working on the upcoming Apple Watch X, which raises the possibility that they may skip the Apple Watch 9, just like they skipped the iPhone 9 series to bring out the iPhone X.

A French website, iPhoneSoft, has reported that Apple is likely to forgo the Apple Watch Series 9 name and instead call their next generation of smartwatches Apple Watch X.

Additionally, the current Apple Watch models offer heart rate tracking, fall detection, SOS calling, a period monitor, and more.
