Apple Watch 2 Sport in depth
Apple Watch 2 Sport is expected to once again be the entry-level Apple Watch, coming with a number of different case styles, including the extant silver, Space Gray, rose gold aluminium and yellow gold aluminium versions.
The original Apple Watch Sport was only available with a fluoroelastomer band with pin-and-tuck fastening at the point of purchase, although customers can choose from eight different colours, including blue, orange, lavender and midnight blue.
While this may change somewhat with the Apple Watch 2, such as a rumoured fluoroelastomer band with magnetic fastening, it is unlikely that this entry-level device will suddenly feature the premium leather and metal straps seen on the Apple Watch and Apple Watch Edition.
