Apple is reportedly planning to release a new Apple Watch Series 3 this fall with Quanta as the primary manufacturer, according to a Chinese Economic Daily News report via DigiTimes.

Quanta Computer is expected to enjoy a strong second-half 2017 thanks to rising demand for notebooks, growing server sales and the release of the next-generation Apple Watch.

Notably, Compal has recently joined the Apple Watch supply chain; however, it's predicted to handle older generation devices as Quanta retains its status as the main supplier.

Apple is reportedly planning to launch its third-generation Apple Watch in 2017 and the wearable is likely to help Quanta's Apple Watch product line turn profitable. Although Compal Electronics reportedly has joined the supply chain of the Apple Watch, the market watchers believe Apple is likely to let Compal mainly handle older-generation models, the paper added.

Back in March we heard that Apple's next generation Apple Watch may feature a cellular connection with a SIM card and LTE support; however, there have not been any significant leaks as of yet. Please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.
