Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says that Apple is currently working on a new version of the Apple Watch SE. That’s not the only news, as he also reveals what Apple plans to change with this version of the budget smartwatch.

Gurman says that Apple plans to change the casing of this version of the Apple Watch SE. Instead of aluminum, the Apple Watch SE will get a plastic casing. According to the Apple expert, Apple is doing this to further reduce the price of the Apple Watch SE.

This is not the first time that Apple has replaced the casing with a plastic variant. Years ago, Apple also did this with the iPhone 5. A version with a plastic back was released that Apple called the iPhone 5C. This iPhone also came in a number of striking colors. This could mean that Apple will also introduce a number of cheerful colors with the new version of the Apple Watch SE.

The Apple iPhone 5C also received a fair amount of criticism. Many Apple fans found it a downgrade from the metal casing of the regular iPhone. There was also dissatisfaction about the price. It was still too high for an ‘inferior’ product.
