The [Apple Watch Series 7](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caviar-apple-watch-series-7) will reportedly have a flat-edged design similar in style to the curves of the newly released [iPhone 12](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nimble-wally-pro), [iPad Pro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/redesigned-ipad), and iPad Air. The new smartwatch esthetic, leaked by in-the-know tech analyst Jon Prosser, will maintain a modern, low-profile look. Alongside the edge design changes, the Apple Watch Series 7 will likely be getting a new casing color in mint green among other possible colors. The familiar red-accented bezel and standard squared display reportedly remain the same.

The Apple Watch Series 7 may include blood glucose and blood pressure sensors to further develop and enhance the advanced health functions of the smartwatch. These features are targeted at the expanding health-conscious market that is looking for functional gadgets that are able to withstand and thrive through daily use.
