The third-generation Apple Watch is reportedly launching this year

And a new report from Chinese-language publication Electronic Daily News indicates this might might actually happen — according to it, the third generation of Apple Watch will be launched by the end of the year.

Not that surprising piece of news, really: Apple sure loves its incremental yearly hardware upgrades, and there is also a new major WatchOS version on the horizon. However, this is our first time actually hearing a rumor about the upcoming wearable's release date.

Curiously enough, the news was buried inside a report concerning Quanta Computer, a manufacturer for the new Apple Watch. Apparently, the company's Watch line is yet to become profitable, though the report mentions this is expected to change once Series 3 (or whatever Apple chooses to call it) gets released. There have been some other rumors about the upcoming wearable, including murmurs of a larger battery capacity and a cellular (a.k.a independent of an iPhone) model.
