Apple Watch Series 7 may feature double-sided ‘S7’ chip

San Francisco: With an aim to offer more space for a larger battery and other components, Apple Watch Series 7 is likely to feature a smaller “S7” chip, the media reported.

According to a paywalled preview of a DigiTimes report accessed by MacRumors, next-generation Apple Watch models will adopt double-sided System in Package (SiP) packaging from Taiwanese supplier ASE Technology.

On its website, ASE Technology confirms that its double-sided technology allows for module miniaturisation, paving the way for a smaller “S7” chip.
