Apple Watch 2 Said to Include Thinner 'One Glass Solution' Display

The second-generation Apple Watch will feature "One Glass Solution" (OGS) Display tech**logy instead of Glass on Glass (G/G) tech**logy, reports DigiTimes citing information obtained from Apple supplier TPK Holding.

One Glass Solution tech**logy eliminates one of the layers of Glass from a traditional G/G Display that features two pieces of glass, replacing one layer with a Thinner material. Making the switch from G/G, used in the current Apple Watch, to OGS could potentially allow Apple to save a small amount of internal space in the Apple Watch 2 and make slight reductions in the weight of the device.


According to TPK Holding, production of the OGS panels for the second-generation Apple Watch has seen some unexpected technical issues, resulting in low yield rates. It is **t clear if this will affect overall production of the second-generation Apple Watch.

The large loss for the second quarter was mainly because touch panel orders for iPhones continued to decrease, and Apple will change touch panel tech**logy from G/G to OGS (one Glass solution) in the new Apple Watch to be launched in the second half of 2016, TPK said. The change in touch panel tech**logy involved unexpected tech**logical difficulties and therefore yield rates for OGS touch panels were much lower than expected, TPK explained.

The Apple Watch 2 is rumored to feature only mi**r design changes with primarily under-the-hood spec improvements. Cellular connectivity, a faster processor, and an improved battery are possibilities for the device.

As for a launch date, rumors suggest we can expect to see the Apple Watch 2 in the fall of 2016. A release alongside the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus is a possibility, and if Apple plans to launch the Apple Watch 2 at that time, it could debut on September 16, 2016, with pre-orders to start on September 9.
