A technology website in China claims to have heard from “supply chain sources” that Apple is building a Bluetooth-enabled smart watch designed by Intel, which we’ll refer to as “iWatch” (unofficial name) from here on out.

According to Chinese gadget news site Tech.163, Apple’s iWatch will feature a 1.5-inch OLED display with indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass. It will communicate with an iPhone, allowing users to answer calls on their watch.

According to the source, Apple will launch this smart watch later next year.

If this rumor proves true, Apple is probably doing the same thing it did with tablets to the idea of the watch. Low-power Bluetooth 4.0 makes wearable connected tech more practical, and with Apple’s design touch and software ecosystem, a smart watch could appeal to more than just gadget geeks.
