What sort of straps do you think we'll see with the Apple Watch Series 3? Anything new? Chances are Apple will take the Series 3 launch as an opportunity to debut some new accessories...

James, all I care is that existing straps still fit.

Apple has a history of making your accessories obsolete every few years.
'Obsolete is a relative term. I've never had an Apple product stop working because a new version shipped.
More to the point, putting the Taptic engine in bands would mean every band would be thicker and have to have an engine it.The Watch would have to be redesigned to power the engine. It's Apple so I'm sure it's doable and have even been prototyped; it just doesn't seem likely to me. Probably more likely than a round Watch with interchangeable bands.
Obsolete doesnt mean the product stopped working, it means (or I meant it to mean) is that the product isnt useful. Example being a 4S charger after the 5 came out. Or a headphone set that isnt lightning compatible and so on and so on.
However, sometimes change is good eh?
bamf-hacker said:Is someone who bought $$$ worth of bands re-buy them to change to the new hardware? Probably not, unless the new hardware has some amazing, ridiculous new features.
