Cook envisions the device to be a tool to track a person’s body and alert him or her to a potentially harmful symptom and thus, greatly extending one’s life spans and improving his or her quality of life.
The Apple Watch 2 would be a lot better than its predecessor model because it does not need an iPhone to maximize its features and capabilities.
According to latest reports, the Apple Watch 2 shall be capable of connecting to a mobile network to complement its faster processor.
This means that the device could already work autonomously from the iPhone. Apparently, the cellular connectivity of the Apple Watch 2 shall allow users to do a tether-free calling from the wrist, which used to be seen only in James Bond films or some modern-day spy movies.
The connection would also allow users to receive notifications and app updates when their wearable is not connected to a trusted Wi-Fi network.
When the Apple Watch 2 did not come out in March, it was only left with two possible release dates which could either be this month at the WWDC 2016 or the traditional iPhone launching event of the American tech giant in September.
But since the smart wearable no longer needs an iPhone to show its capability, there is a good chance that it will finally come out next week.
